The Bell Jar (1979)

The Bell Jar is a 1979 film directed by Larry Peerce and based on the novel by Sylvia Plath. It stars Marilyn Hassett and Julie Harris. The story follows a young woman's summer in New York City working for a women's magazine, her return home to New England, and her subsequent psychological breakdown within the context of the difficulties of the 1950s — ranging from the Rosenberg execution, to the disturbing aspects of pop culture, to the distraction of predatory college boys.
