Negative Positive
Title: book is better than the movie
Review: I read Prozac Nation about a year ago and by the time I got to the end of it I found myself with a book full of underlined paragraphs. The book was indeed very good, and truly depicted Elizabeth at her most vulnerable state. That being in a void of depression and knowing that the only thing responsible for it was herself.No sooner than finishing the book had my friend pulled out a japanese release of it on DVD. The more I watched the sicker I got. The movie turns Elizabeth's character into a "fated teen", displaying her as if the back of her hand was indefinately attached to her forehead. Simply overdramatic and very annoying.Now dont get me wrong, I love Christina Ricci. I loved her most in The Opposite of Sex, which was just another display of how amazing she can be on screen. It wasn't her performance in Prozac Nation that disappointed me, it was the overdramatics of it all that did.
