Yes, Criterion should resurrect it. I admit it is a rather crude drama, but I "fell in love with the actress / she was playin' a part that I could understand," to quote Neil Young. So if you're like me in any respect, you'll put up with the subpar quality just for the memory of your fragile youth. Devastating. Plus a great Janis Ian theme song at the close. ### ⭐ Zero stars for the DVD, five stars for the movie *by C***A on Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2013* Buyer beware, this is not a professionally manufactured DVD. It's a bootleg disc of what looks to be a copy made from an old VHS tape or worse, a television broadcast. There are tracking lines across the bottom of the screen (remember those?) and the image quality is so bad, there are whole scenes that are simply a blur of low resolution nothingness.This disc is being sold for $20+ by Amazon. I'm not quite sure from where they are getting their stock but this is not the usual quality of product Amazon sells and I made sure to speak to someone in customer service at Amazon about initiating a quality check on this bootleg-seeming disc. Amazon customer service is excellent, by the way.About the actual movie, this is a remarkable film based on Sylvia Plath's, The Bell Jar, which I believe came out in the early 1970s and gives a fictionalized account of her own experience (as Esther Greenwood) living at the Barbizon Hotel (aka The Amazon Hotel in the book) in New York City while working for "Ladies' Day" Magazine (Mademoiselle). Plath herself had some mental issues at that time in her life but the book is fictionalized for drama. If you're interested to learn more about Sylvia Plath and her time in New York during that fateful summer, read: Pain, Parties, Work: Sylvia Plath in New York, Summer 1953 by Elizabeth Winder which just came out this year. It's excellent and insightful.Back to the DVD. I would really like to see The Bell Jar reissued in a professional, digitally remastered format and offered for sale on Amazon. I can't imagine why this is not already available for purchase.By all means DO NOT BUY this disc. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ challenges of adulthood *by R***G on Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2019* This is a movie about a woman coming into adulthood and the challenges facing a woman entering into adulthood. She goes through many situations and she ends up in a mental institution because she is not able to live on her own and does not know how to live her life. At the end of the movie she is finally freed from her burdens when she finds a friend hanging from a tree and one of the doctors find her in the field and bring her back to the hospital grounds and she smiles as she goes back. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/9436284-the-bell-jar](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/9436284-the-bell-jar) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
