A biography directed by Jane Campion.
The life of author, Janet Frame is shown. Janet grows up in New Zealand and goes to college before being admitted to a psychiatric hospital where she is driven insane. When she gets out, she goes to Spain and has a brief affair with an American, then goes to London.
The style was really good and the camera-work was creative instead of destructive. The main character was portrayed very well and they picked good actresses to play her at various times in her life. The only thing that I had problems with was that it lacked continuity. There were giant time leaps here and there which disrupted the flow. I'm rating it awesome for style.
