" I recently did a movie list called "Crazy Bitches", listing movies like Fatal Attraction & Basic Instinct. In other words, films about women who are mentally unstable. But, even really quality movies that follow this theme, no matter how good they are, the concept of feminine mental illness is done with the typical over-the-top Hollywood flair.
