I agree (having bought it on DVD) it's autobiographic

By the way that photo link doesn't go where it's supposed to. Don't they have to disguise the characte anyway just in case they get sued? Her parents probably could have sued her anyway for what she said about them. But I know that novelists have to be careful about copying from reality just in case someone sues them and no publisher will take on a book that they could end up getting sued over.
