Meaningful, Haunting, & Thought-Provoking...
After watching the movie Prozac Nation with Christina Ricci, I bought the book and was amazed at how different & more complex the story is. Not only is a lot of additional info. in the book, there's a lot more of an emotional reaction that it should get! (The movie was great, though, I bought it too- C.Ricci is always a *powerful actress*)... Be patient at times with the book... because the ending shows W's great writing and the devastating effect depression has had on her life.

*Captivating... Surprising... Very Seductive!! *
2 of 2 found this helpful ... While I *did* expect this movie to be awesome, I didn't expect how much it would draw me in, intrigue and seduce me... I rented it 2ce (I couldn't let go!)- so I had to buy it on ebay. Especially if you haven't seen the documentary 'Hollywood Madam' (director Nick Bloomfield- who's excellent!!) yet, this will be funny and entertaining, as well as sad and thought-provoking...
'Call Me' cleverly brings up issues like police dishonesty and illegal profit from Heidi's line of work, and the constant issue of betrayal of friends, the loyalty of family, and the love of oneself. I give it 5 Xs. xxxxx.
