Movie Haiku:Story of the relationship between Lisa, a rebellious, self-styled sociopath (Angelina Joie), and Susanna, a depressed future writer (Winona Ryder). Both spend time together in a psychiatric ward for well-heeled adolescents. Although the plot has a few Ken Kesey-esque moments of excess, detailed character studies make this worthwhile.
