I just finished The Bell Jar in the morning and I want to know if any anon knows of a film that has similar ethos? Thanks.

A film? Weepy sadness of young people whose futures go incredibly wrong? It's locale and backstory is entirely foreign but you could try All About Lily Chou-chou for a similar feel. Vive L'Amour is another good one, but that's half a male perspective. Some of Cassavetes' films feel like a grown-up version of that narrator, esp. A Woman Under the Influence

Sylvia by far. Sexton was a coomer.
