Running With Scissors

I didn't read this book (a memoir), so I can't say how the movie compares with the book. I thought the movie was pretty good. It was certainly interesting and strange. There were some funny parts and some sad parts and some disgusting parts. As I looked into it after watching the movie, there is controversy about how true all of the events depicted are, and there was a lawsuit that got settled. I imagine the best thing to do is just to evaluate the movie as entertainment, and in doing that, I found that the story (whether 100% accurate or not) was compelling and well done as a movie.
