Boy Interrupted

On the night of Oct. 2, 2005, Hart and Dana Perry's 15-year-old son Evan jumped to his death from his New York City bedroom window. This moving film is the story, told by his parents and others who knew him, of Evan's life and death, and life-long struggle with bipolar disorder. In showing how one family deals with generations of loss and grief, the film is an attempt to defy the stigma related to mental illness and suicide."

'Boy Interrupted' Director Tells Son's Story



Customer Reviews

Honest Look at Life, Death, and Grief5
In my humblest opinion, documentaries should be the type of "movies" to get all the attention and accolades simply because there's no "heavy machinery" involved and no acting, whatsoever (most of the times). They show life the way it is--unscripted and "un-rehearsed".
At least this gem of a "movie" doesn't have any of that, yet it still delivers. Like all documentaries, it presents the life of young Evan Scott Perry, who tragically committed suicide at the tender age of 15.
As a way of coming to terms with the past and present, Evan's mother, Dana Perry, puts together a film tracking Evan's short life and how his untimely departure came to have its effect on the ones he left behind.
An honest look at a beautiful life tragically cut short, this is definitely one of the most powerful documentaries I have ever seen, and it doesn't take a movie critic to say that!!!
Not only rent or watch this film, but buy it.
