@@karendalsadik7119 omg so I was just looking at the book reviews etc. and there's so many characters that weren't in the movie like Georgians boyfriend or the other Lisa that is despised by Lisa (the one that actually got a part in the movie) like wth though, also in the book they all kinda despise each other a bit
The trailer makes it looks like a fun romp through the psych ward. The movie makes it look like a rebellious teen trying to piss off her parents. The deleted scenes actually do the subject matter and book justice.
Honestly the more “deleted scenes” I watch, the more I realize how we’ve been deprived of the best movies. We may have gotten the movie, but these scenes were probably cut for time... they’re always cut for time, resulting in us loosing key moments of the story.
@@XXTH3ST4RXX You can have your own view, but I think some scenes definitely read like Suzanna is just acting out. Particularly the scenes with her parents in the doctors office when she's pointedly asking if her illness is genetic. Or some of her scenes/ lines between her and Valerie. Dr. Wick suggesting that Suzanna's illness is a choice. Obviously that isn't the message I get from this movie, one of my favorites. But if it is the message other people get, I wouldn't be surprised. And THAT'S what bothers me about it. It feels like the editor had his own vision and ran with it, while the marketing team for this film thought it should be something different and ran with that.
I can't believe they cut all of this out , it would've have given so much more explanation to her diagnosis and insight to what was going on in her head rather than just seeming to be rebellious
Think Stephanie's just relating to how it sucks being the Guinea pig while tryna make sense of it all. Trial runs, weight gains, weight loss, restlessness, drowsiness, mania, autopilot, "still dead inside..Well let's try this pill!" All this bullshit for lord knows how long, gets old man. The realization that it's your freakin mind and yet you have to blindly trust strangers with it at your most vulnerable. She identified with that statement. So do I and that's what I get out of it.. so who cares if she got a heart lol
@@melburgundy4766 Doctors aren't magicians, they cannot know what will work for you and what won't. How do you think we figured out about medicines in the first place? *Someone* had to test it out, and some medicine that might work for a person might not work for you. It's important to give it time, test different things and see what's best for *you.* So you all need to stop trying to sound deep and wallowing in self pity, and thank the doctors for trying to save lives instead.
These beginning scenes of her slowly having her nervous breakdown are super important and I don’t know why they took them out. As someone who has struggled with psychosis and BPD I can say that this is exactly how it is building up.
How in the hell did they think that cutting these scenes would make the movie better and more mysterious? This would have been one of my most favorite movies of all time were these scenes included in the official release!
These deleted scenes feel like a totally different movie. Removing them really changed the vibe of what made it into the final cut, drastically. I think the movie would've been better off had some been included.
Apparently people with BPD tend to have an unstable sense of identity without others and an intense fear of abandonment, and therefore they "mirror" or copy the people around them,.
Yea I see your point. She likes Lisa so much like adore her that she wanna be like her so she starts acting like her. Those scenes really show the reality and their relationship and how it affects Susanna
Why were these scenes cut from the full movie? They're great, it would've added so much more explanation to the plot, and show more of what Susana is going through in her mind.
As someone who has experiences depersonalizatoin / possible BPD 'episodes' ; these are a great example. It's sad to see they threw these scenes away. Hopefully there will be a unrated version on it's 25th anniversary.
They should’ve included the scene where Lisa shows Susanna “Ruby”, it makes it all the more petty and clear why Daisy named her cat Ruby as a jab at her
It also shows how ill Lisa really is. As somebody who has sustained 2nd and 3rd degree burns, I can safely say that a healthy person does not seek out that kind of pain.
I agree, they really should have kept all these scenes in, as it explains her relationship with the janitor better, and her statement "I see things" and what she was doing in her therapy sessions. I wonder if there is or will be a director's cut, cos I'd be all over that
H that doesn’t make any sense. You’re basically just repeating the title of the movie 🎥. What specifically makes this “the most important part of the film”?

Interesting.. I cannot see why most of these scenes didn't make it.. in the final movie Susana doesn't look bpd at all.. while in the book and with these cut scenes she is obviously portayed as bpd. I think that, in the end, the director decided to tell a different story. But I'd like it if most of them were in. Except the "explaining who is who and their disorder" scene.. looked too "mean girls-ish" to me :PPP
@@eternalconfusion6226 I've heard that pointing out who is who in that specific way is a total 90s cliche. And this was released in 1999. Mean Girls is from 2004 but also kind of seems to parody that chiche in a way.

it was almost criminal to delete the scene at 5:34-6:51 as it shows that daisy was discharged from the ward not because she got better but because she made some "progress."
She was discharged because the predator father bought her an apartment so the abusive could continue and less eyes round The father abused her in their home The father abused her in the private suite at the ward he paid for The father abused her in the apartment he bought for her She was never better or made progress hence the cuts on her arm at the apartment and her request for volume medication. She also lied about not having a tub because she was all set to hang her self from the bathroom ceiling.
I’m so mad they cut the marketplace part out because that was my favorite part in the book where Susanna goes to get meat and passes out in the meat isle. It’s such a borderline thing to do to try and kill yourself and then regret it and try to get help and it was such a grand gesture of a cry for help that I just loved in the book and I like how she went back to the same place when she ran away. I know the author never ran away but it was a good connection in the movie that would have been nice.
I get why most of this were cut off. But some of the backstory and points of view from Susanna would have been actually useful. Also Polly introducing everyone and a little of the cafeteria scenes would've been useful.
filthy sink One of the worst parts about bpd is an intense unrelenting and restless boredom. Look up dysphoria. That's what the feeling is. I know all too well exactly what she means by that statement! Haha ohh man..
In the book, as in the film, there is no evidence of Suzanne's disease. And these scenes would be evidence. So it's good that they are not, because the moral is - if you start to follow someone closely, then most likely you can say that he is sick. Forgive me for my English, I hope I wrote it clearly.
I’m not sure what you mean, in the book she references her depersonalization episodes. I guess the take away might be that sometimes (oftentimes) mental illness isn’t so easy to see.
In some cases, scenes have to be removed because it messes with the story line or it just turned out to be unnecessary. However, I think these scenes really added to the movie and understanding what Susanna was going through.
I think all these deleted scenes are faboulous!My favourite are the one where Susana see herself in the other taxi and the one she looks at the painting.These 2, for me, should have been taken in the film.The only it seems to me superflous is the one where Polly explain Susana all other girls disorders.
Winona was one of the best actors of this generation. She had a tremendous number of opportunities. It's a shame her entire career was wiped out by her petty shoplifting crime... Now we never hear anything about her. All that work just to get blacklisted for stealing $5000 worth in clothing at Saks. How much is a reputation worth? It's hard to fathom what she stole from herself that day. In a world that's covered in cameras... And her being a celebrity, she was living like a little big under a microscope, especially in public - you would think she'd be more savvy.
@@CrookedStepsHardHeaded yea and from a new aesthetic 'coquette' this movie has been getting more popular too causing both Angelina and Winona to get more famous!
The scene with everyone in the cafeteria ,would have added such a humane side to why each character was there.Imagine your parents putting you in a Mental Hospital because of the way you dress,that is rejection and abandonment ,no wonder they were all fucked up...
They definitely should have keep the scene with her mom playing the piano, you see more of the relationship between Susan and her Mom and the main reason why she try to kill herself
I think her mother was struggling just as much. But she couldn't recognize it because she would've realized her whole life was a lie. Typical of many woman of her generation.
They really cut out Susanna’s story and turned it into a Lisa vehicle.... I’ve read the book as well but I didn’t initially when I saw it as I was in 8th grade and everything surrounding Susanna’s suicide attempt and wrist bruises were so confusing. I remember there’s a throwaway line from like a nurse that says like “we’ve got a wrist banger” or something like that and i don’t think that’s even been a common form a self harm as someone who struggled with that in the past but I could be wrong. It just seemed very strange
1. 0:01 Taxi, flashback 2. 3:24 Cafeteria, Polly introduces everyone 3. 5:13 Susanna argues with Melvin on drugs 4. 8:44 museum, Annette flashback 5. 13:32 Aspirin overdose, market breakdown 3:50 They never say what MG stands for in the final cut. What does Martian's Girlfriend mean? 7:18 What is up with Lisa and nail polish in this movie? 8:08 Is that supposed to be a "drawing" of Ruby, Daisy's cat? Lisa didnt know about Ruby yet. 9:45 Wasn't the valium for Daisy? 11:03 This is a real painting, by Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer. Like the guy said, it's called "Girl Interrupted at Her Music". That's where the title of the book/movie comes from. 12:58 What did she say?
i love the art gallery scene. but Polly explaining why everyone is there seems predictable but also unnecessary because the film is not only through Susanah's personal journey but like anywhere where you're the "new kid", it takes time to get to know people. esp in psych facilities where things are rarely explained. none goes out of their way to introduce themselves, but even more so, why they're there because they're trying to figure you out too.
Besides, we learn about the girls by their interactions with Whoopi's character ("you get tour clothes back when you eat something"), their behavior in general or when they break into the office later in the film. Basically, the film following the "show, don't tell" rule.
fluffykitty purry it's heavily linked with trauma but it can be genetic , it's not always linked with trauma though. Sometimes it's related to a cluster of illnesses , and it's even been In relation to Aspergers and neurological conditions. Either way , no one willingly wants BPD. And it's against our freewill for it to be in our genetics.
Correct you are. Sadly though, it is depicted as vicious, the person is portrayed as a monster. This is one of the most misunderstood mental illnesses; no person, not even therapists (with the exception of Marsha Linehan!) can truly understand this illness unless they are engulfed by it themselves.
Lorela Some have suggested where patients have been diagnosed with BPD where significant trauma is involved, the person should actually be diagnosed with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, not BPD
Lorela re: aspergers, there's some interesting research papers on systemizing and people with aspergers vs people with diagnosed BPD. Very interesting results if you are interested in researching this mental illness
6:07 I love this scene they should have NEVER deleted this scene WHY did they delete this scenes they were all so important and relevant to the movie in understanding more about borderline disorder. Lisa was pure evil 7:00 no boundaries what so ever
while i’m all for writers letting the readers/watchers interpret things, i was confused the majority of the movie of what led her to the diagnosis and what the hell was going on in her past. it would’ve helped tremendously.
Man I don’t think that those scenes shouldn’t have been cut from the movie. Because those scenes explain the plot of the movie well. Particularly the part in the movie where she takes too much aspirin.
It's not an overstatement. Its a misstatement. She's not schizophrenic. There's more than one diagnosis that involves delusions and hallucinations. Schizophrenia is its own breed of monster *entirely*. It's not even in the same building as Borderline Personality Disorder.
Does her seeing ureal things fall under the borderline? Like the finger breaking or there's no bone in her arms? Cause i believe I have borderline still haven't been diagnosed yet but I don't see things
@@Cinderella-mc8kf no it really doesn't. remember that this is the 60s and one of the girls is literally diagnosed with gay. susanna had some sort of schizotypal disorder, or schizophrenia most likely while lisa definitely had either bpd or bipolar disorder
The Queen’s Gambit has a borderline dysfunctional but working relationship with an alcoholic woman and her adopted daughter who follow in her footsteps. The mother plays the same song (gymnopedie) at the piano. I wonder if they were referencing this deleted scene, it is very similar feeling!
These… all should be made into an extended version of the film and re released!!!!! Ruby, it’d make so much sense why she’d be so angry at Daisy for naming her cat that and it triggering such a visceral response
All of these scenes should have been in, except for the scene where Polly explains who they all are and why they are there. It was a little cliche and even though it settled my curiosity, it was a little too... orchestrated?
Спасибо! Эти сцены позволили глубже понять проблемы героини, да и в целом расширили замысел режиссёра. Жаль, что вырезали, но наверное так было надо. Ещё раз спасибо!
I think this is one of those movies every time you watch it you see different perspectives,, little nuances you didn't see before. I think at one point there is a statement in which Susanna's character says maybe she was crazy or maybe it was because it was the 60's. I think when you really look at all the characters in this movie you come to terms with everyone is crazy. It just depends on what side of the door your on. Daisies father ? Susanna's boyfriend ( and mother) even that professor she slept with. I never understood why the wife blamed her, yet the daughter sort of got it.
Or nobody is crazy. You could make that case for every single one of them. Janet is anorexic, today it is eating disorder not being crazy. Cynthia is a lesbian. Polly is schizophrenic but could young girl react any different when she realise what happened with her looks? Daisy is victim of rape that is going on and on. Even Lisa, is she sociapath? Or rebellious girl who is someone only in that hospital and nobody outside? When she found Daisy, you can say she is sociapath. But also she knew Daisy died long time ago, and being dead is better than be raped by her father every week. When Suzannah said that she is pure evil, Lisa break down, but at the end she say that she doesn't have cold heart. Wife blamed Suzannah because it was typical for that time, it was always women fault. Daughter tought the same, you can see in her eyes, but she felt ashamed to say anything in public.
Really wish a lot of these scenes were kept in, I can totally see why it was cut but still. These scenes really aren’t typical “deleted scenes” where they aren’t good, these scenes are really good despite me knowing why they were cut.
I wish they kept in the scene with John and where she takes the aspirin. Was confused as to how they developed a romance. Also wish they kept the scene with her mother and where she overdosed with the aspirin. Explains why she was triggered by the little girl playing in the beginning and explains more as to why she killed herself. Her “time jumping” (sry idk what to call it) felt inconsistent throughout the movie to be honest. Still don’t understand why they deleted the blood scene. Must’ve spent a lot of money making that scene (w/ the effects n shit)
Best of luck to all those who tried to bring to light the plight of inmates and their struggles in mental hospitals during a time when their treatment was less up to the mark than it is now. Best regards to all patients everywhere in the world and I pray for their recoveries. 😊
The shrinks hated to diagnose me with borderline because I already have bipolar one, mixed episodes, rapid cycles. They did though. I've been in and out of hospitals from 19 yrs to now. I'm 61 years. 34 electric shocks. 😢 Mom tries to understand but no one else. She told me today I have a bad personality because I am having trouble with her and my sister. 😢😢😢 Why won't they watch this movie or read about it?! I can hardly stand anyone today to include myself ..
I hate so much when they delete scenes!! It is so unfair to actors because of their hard work and talent, although they were paid for every scene! And especially If there were good and nice scenes in film !! She was so genius, like she knew what is going to happen, she saw Lisa, saw herself in direction to mental hospital, like she knew everything and she was affraid young girl that thought that nobody would believe her maybe that she had sex and secret with her professor who is a family friend, she was embarassied and couldn't accept reality, so she tried to kill herself.
Polly was like the eyes and ears of the ward. They should’ve kept the cafeteria scene in to give her character more depth than just the scenes of Lisa making fun of her.

Winona was one of the best actors of this generation. She had a tremendous number of opportunities. It's a shame her entire career was wiped out by her petty shoplifting crime... Now we never hear anything about her. All that work just to get blacklisted for stealing $5000 worth in clothing at Saks. How much is a reputation worth? It's hard to fathom what she stole from herself that day. In a world that's covered in cameras... And her being a celebrity, she was living like a little big under a microscope, especially in public - you would think she'd be more savvy.
I agree. Although she regained some popularity thanks to Stranger Things, and now younger people are eager to know about her.
@@CrookedStepsHardHeaded yea and from a new aesthetic 'coquette' this movie has been getting more popular too causing both Angelina and Winona to get more famous!
The hypocrisy of Hollywood. Although Winona is a coward for lying for Depp
Compulsive shoplifting is a mental illness. She couldn't help it. She needed help, which she got.
But Winona in her real life at that moment was having a breakdown. When go through that you do stupide stuff. I've been there and done that.
The scene with everyone in the cafeteria ,would have added such a humane side to why each character was there.Imagine your parents putting you in a Mental Hospital because of the way you dress,that is rejection and abandonment ,no wonder they were all fucked up...
They mean she's gay
@@iamamultimillionaire6299 😃
@@iamamultimillionaire6299 ohhh that makes a lot more sense
They definitely should have keep the scene with her mom playing the piano, you see more of the relationship between Susan and her Mom and the main reason why she try to kill herself
which song was she playing?
@@ranabanana06 Erik Satie's Gnossienne No.1 :-)
I think her mother was struggling just as much. But she couldn't recognize it because she would've realized her whole life was a lie. Typical of many woman of her generation.
I would’ve definitely paid extra to have the deleted scenes included in the finished film when I first bought it for the first time
They really cut out Susanna’s story and turned it into a Lisa vehicle.... I’ve read the book as well but I didn’t initially when I saw it as I was in 8th grade and everything surrounding Susanna’s suicide attempt and wrist bruises were so confusing. I remember there’s a throwaway line from like a nurse that says like “we’ve got a wrist banger” or something like that and i don’t think that’s even been a common form a self harm as someone who struggled with that in the past but I could be wrong. It just seemed very strange
Wrist banging and other appendage bruising is a common self harm tactic because they're easier to explain away (sports, fall, easily bruise, etc.)
1. 0:01 Taxi, flashback
2. 3:24 Cafeteria, Polly introduces everyone
3. 5:13 Susanna argues with Melvin on drugs
4. 8:44 museum, Annette flashback
5. 13:32 Aspirin overdose, market breakdown
3:50 They never say what MG stands for in the final cut. What does Martian's Girlfriend mean?
7:18 What is up with Lisa and nail polish in this movie?
8:08 Is that supposed to be a "drawing" of Ruby, Daisy's cat? Lisa didnt know about Ruby yet.
9:45 Wasn't the valium for Daisy?
11:03 This is a real painting, by Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer. Like the guy said, it's called "Girl Interrupted at Her Music". That's where the title of the book/movie comes from.
12:58 What did she say?
Daisy named her cat Ruby because of Lisa's arm actually lol that's why she tells her to worry about her arm before she commits suicide :)
@@casyjonatica4ever
Ohh that makes sense. Thanks.
at 12:58 the mother says "thesis review"
@@iheartstars333
Thanks!
i love the art gallery scene. but Polly explaining why everyone is there seems predictable but also unnecessary because the film is not only through Susanah's personal journey but like anywhere where you're the "new kid", it takes time to get to know people. esp in psych facilities where things are rarely explained. none goes out of their way to introduce themselves, but even more so, why they're there because they're trying to figure you out too.
Besides, we learn about the girls by their interactions with Whoopi's character ("you get tour clothes back when you eat something"), their behavior in general or when they break into the office later in the film. Basically, the film following the "show, don't tell" rule.
"I'm a shrub, alright." Ahh 😂
say it with me- none of these should have been deleted
When Janet identified as herself as a Shrub I felt that 😂
Your not born witn bpd... It comes from child hood.. Trauma.. It's not their fault...
fluffykitty purry it's heavily linked with trauma but it can be genetic , it's not always linked with trauma though. Sometimes it's related to a cluster of illnesses , and it's even been In relation to Aspergers and neurological conditions. Either way , no one willingly wants BPD. And it's against our freewill for it to be in our genetics.
Correct you are. Sadly though, it is depicted as vicious, the person is portrayed as a monster. This is one of the most misunderstood mental illnesses; no person, not even therapists (with the exception of Marsha Linehan!) can truly understand this illness unless they are engulfed by it themselves.
Lorela Some have suggested where patients have been diagnosed with BPD where significant trauma is involved, the person should actually be diagnosed with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, not BPD
Lorela re: aspergers, there's some interesting research papers on systemizing and people with aspergers vs people with diagnosed BPD. Very interesting results if you are interested in researching this mental illness
@@chalronbjork4766 search " peter walker ptsd "is one who said that and other thing that realy help
I would suggest everyone just read the book.
It’s such a great book.
6:07 I love this scene they should have NEVER deleted this scene WHY did they delete this scenes they were all so important and relevant to the movie in understanding more about borderline disorder. Lisa was pure evil 7:00 no boundaries what so ever
while i’m all for writers letting the readers/watchers interpret things, i was confused the majority of the movie of what led her to the diagnosis and what the hell was going on in her past. it would’ve helped tremendously.
Some of these scenes are creepy as fuck
BadAssMacmillan but depict the illness and symptoms very well. It's a shame they left that out
I know right
Man I don’t think that those scenes shouldn’t have been cut from the movie. Because those scenes explain the plot of the movie well. Particularly the part in the movie where she takes too much aspirin.
"You Never had ANY FUCKING LIME JELLO!!!!!"
I thought calling her schizophrenic was an overstatement until these scenes
It's not an overstatement. Its a misstatement. She's not schizophrenic. There's more than one diagnosis that involves delusions and hallucinations. Schizophrenia is its own breed of monster *entirely*. It's not even in the same building as Borderline Personality Disorder.
Does her seeing ureal things fall under the borderline? Like the finger breaking or there's no bone in her arms? Cause i believe I have borderline still haven't been diagnosed yet but I don't see things
@@0m3gaph03nix she has schizophrenia literally on her diagnosis sheet bro
@@Cinderella-mc8kf no it really doesn't. remember that this is the 60s and one of the girls is literally diagnosed with gay. susanna had some sort of schizotypal disorder, or schizophrenia most likely while lisa definitely had either bpd or bipolar disorder

The Queen’s Gambit has a borderline dysfunctional but working relationship with an alcoholic woman and her adopted daughter who follow in her footsteps. The mother plays the same song (gymnopedie) at the piano. I wonder if they were referencing this deleted scene, it is very similar feeling!
Susanna admired and hated Lisa at the same time which scared her
and I thought I couldnt love this movie more
explains lots of the scenes for me
these scenes are amazing, why did they not put them in the movie? everything would have been so much more clear
these should all have been in.
scenes with Susanna interacting with her mother are so neurotic I love them
I love the movie and the deleted scenes, thank you for uploading.
The fact there’re matching their outfits with their hair color in 9:29
This movie 🍿 1999! Still my favorite 2020
These… all should be made into an extended version of the film and re released!!!!!
Ruby, it’d make so much sense why she’d be so angry at Daisy for naming her cat that and it triggering such a visceral response
All of these scenes should have been in, except for the scene where Polly explains who they all are and why they are there. It was a little cliche and even though it settled my curiosity, it was a little too... orchestrated?
Those scenes never should have been cut. I had the DVD and in they showed this it's make so much sense!
Спасибо! Эти сцены позволили глубже понять проблемы героини, да и в целом расширили замысел режиссёра. Жаль, что вырезали, но наверное так было надо. Ещё раз спасибо!
Daym that dissociative episode and breakdown was to relatable
Which part was that? The grocery scene or
The scenes with her hands makes me relive that
I think this is one of those movies every time you watch it you see different perspectives,, little nuances you didn't see before. I think at one point there is a statement in which Susanna's character says maybe she was crazy or maybe it was because it was the 60's. I think when you really look at all the characters in this movie you come to terms with everyone is crazy. It just depends on what side of the door your on. Daisies father ? Susanna's boyfriend ( and mother) even that professor she slept with. I never understood why the wife blamed her, yet the daughter sort of got it.
Or nobody is crazy. You could make that case for every single one of them. Janet is anorexic, today it is eating disorder not being crazy. Cynthia is a lesbian. Polly is schizophrenic but could young girl react any different when she realise what happened with her looks? Daisy is victim of rape that is going on and on. Even Lisa, is she sociapath? Or rebellious girl who is someone only in that hospital and nobody outside? When she found Daisy, you can say she is sociapath. But also she knew Daisy died long time ago, and being dead is better than be raped by her father every week. When Suzannah said that she is pure evil, Lisa break down, but at the end she say that she doesn't have cold heart. Wife blamed Suzannah because it was typical for that time, it was always women fault. Daughter tought the same, you can see in her eyes, but she felt ashamed to say anything in public.
She said "maybe I'm crazy or maybe life is crazy"
Damn, many of these deleted scenes would've made the movie more a horror or psychological thriller.
3:46 I love this scene. I wish they kept it in.
I’m baffled by the fact that they took out completely important scenes that would have made the movie make more sense......
I just adopted an all grey kitten and named her Petula. God I love this film, deleted scenes and all...
She was amazing in this role, I feel she really connected with this character
She does. The actual Susana and Winona became friends in real life bc of this movie and how much they felt they could relate to one another.
@@LauraLush0 Oh yeah I forgot they Met. That’s awesome. I relate to Winona a lot
They should release an extended version of the movie. Or at least release a dvd that gave you the option to select the regular or extended.
Really wish a lot of these scenes were kept in, I can totally see why it was cut but still. These scenes really aren’t typical “deleted scenes” where they aren’t good, these scenes are really good despite me knowing why they were cut.
I wish they kept in the scene with John and where she takes the aspirin. Was confused as to how they developed a romance. Also wish they kept the scene with her mother and where she overdosed with the aspirin. Explains why she was triggered by the little girl playing in the beginning and explains more as to why she killed herself. Her “time jumping” (sry idk what to call it) felt inconsistent throughout the movie to be honest. Still don’t understand why they deleted the blood scene. Must’ve spent a lot of money making that scene (w/ the effects n shit)
Best of luck to all those who tried to bring to light the plight of inmates and their struggles in mental hospitals during a time when their treatment was less up to the mark than it is now. Best regards to all patients everywhere in the world and I pray for their recoveries. 😊
All of this was so crucial to the story and Winona’s character why did they cut it all?! 😭
they should have definitely involved a scene w the painting
Yeah, it was quite meaningful
I don't understand that scene, can someone explain it?

scenes plural
@@lilithjade4363 ik was kidding lol
8:11 Ruby is the name of daisy's cat in her appartment and this scene was before lisa and susanna went there
The shrinks hated to diagnose me with borderline because I already have bipolar one, mixed episodes, rapid cycles. They did though. I've been in and out of hospitals from 19 yrs to now. I'm 61 years. 34 electric shocks. 😢 Mom tries to understand but no one else. She told me today I have a bad personality because I am having trouble with her and my sister. 😢😢😢 Why won't they watch this movie or read about it?! I can hardly stand anyone today to include myself ..
I want more from Daisy. I like her in movie.
Too bad she had a sad ending.
@@ashleysmith8402 and same with her in real life :(

She is tho XD
Girl,Interrupted Gets The Extended Version.
2024 and I still not only love the book and the film. Angelina played the heck out of this role! One of her best in my opinion.
They did not just cut the scene explaining THE TITLE.
This makes so much more sense
I hate so much when they delete scenes!! It is so unfair to actors because of their hard work and talent, although they were paid for every scene! And especially If there were good and nice scenes in film !! She was so genius, like she knew what is going to happen, she saw Lisa, saw herself in direction to mental hospital, like she knew everything and she was affraid young girl that thought that nobody would believe her maybe that she had sex and secret with her professor who is a family friend, she was embarassied and couldn't accept reality, so she tried to kill herself.
poor girl, horrible mother. don’t have children if you can’t be the best & only the best parent to them
Polly was like the eyes and ears of the ward. They should’ve kept the cafeteria scene in to give her character more depth than just the scenes of Lisa making fun of her.
Big eyes, pixie ears and a cute little nose. I'm smitten.
not the movie to adore winonas good looks in man
Haha, I thought this movie was missing something, It indeed was missing those deleted scenes...
