I can feel so vicariously when Gia closes the door behind her mother when she left her and the distress and despair when her beloved agent died from the world. i also feel this way often when i am alone for no one seemed to be there for me in this world.
she chose drugs, avoiding facing the reality. she chose to forget and was ruined by it.
she kept requesting her mother to take her back, to take care of her, she simply wanted to be loved. when in the last, her mother offered to take her back, she actually refused. That was impressive. we have to frame the response into the time, when it was after her rehabilitation. she became much more independent, and responsible.
Growing up, in her case, means take responsible for yourself instead of your parents. that is the time when Gia grows up.
There are sentences in the movie that are truly impressive.
when you don't know what to do, when you are nervous, believe that you only have to be yourself, everything's going to be fine, and that you don't have to be perfect, nothing is perfect, you only need to experience it and transcend beyond it.
