Discussion Film / JennifersBody

Removed from the main page:

• Unreliable Narrator: One possible interpretation. The story is told as a flashback by Needy, a patient in a prison psych ward. The story in the flashback appears to contain multiple supernatural aspects, notably that Needy's friend Jennifer has magic powers. At the end of the film, Needy appears to use the magic powers that had supposedly been Jennifer's to break out of the prison. Was all of it real? All the delusions of a lunatic? Not precisely real, but the truth as seen Through the Eyes of Madness?

There's nothing in the film that posits Needy as an unreliable narrator and there's no indication that the supernatural elements aren't real. Every time she thinks or sees something, it's real and accurate, even when she instinctively thinks something (like that Jennifer is attacking Chip)

Removed from main page, as there is a cleanup effort on one of the pages linked here underway and I am not sure what to do with this entry:

• Jail Bait: Jennifer is this, as she is in high school, but uses her sexuality to get into bars, pay for drinks, seduce boys, and lose her virginity to a cop. The fact that the same cop she teases in Melody Lane tells her "not here" since they are in public only adds to this.
