Short description
When talented young writer Elizabeth Wurtzel earns a scholarship to Harvard, she sees it as her chance to escape the pressures of her working-class background and concentrate on her true talent. But what starts out so promising leads to self-destructive behavior and paralyzing depression that reflects an entire generation's struggle to navigate the effects of divorce, drugs, sex, and high expectations.
What's left behind the scenes
- Miramax planned to release the film, shot in 2000, in 2001, but it was shelved in the United States. Several reasons were cited – from an unsympathetic lead character to offensive statements made by journalist and screenwriter Elizabeth Wurtzel about the September 11, 2001 tragedy, and even Wurtzel's own opinion that the film turned out "terrible." In 2005, the film finally aired on Starz!. All the films gathering dust on the shelves saw the light of day after Harvey and Bob Weinstein left Miramax.
