    Enjoyed her movies hide show

    I loved her in Girl Interupted. I thought she did a wonderful job with that charactor. And thought she was funny in Up Town Girls. I forgot she was in Clueless but back when I use to love watching it (yes i liked clueless when i was younger) I loved her charactor in it also. I hated when I read online that she had died. She was far to young to go. I hope her family has all that they need to get thru this time. And that they can hold in their hearts the knowledge that she did leave her mark on this earth and will not be forgotten.

    Wonderful actress! hide show

    It is a shame that she didnt garner the fame of those she co-stared with so many times. She was a wonderful actress with a very broad range from romantic comedy (Just Married) to the very spooky "I'll never tell" (Don't Say a Word, with Michael Douglas) and the voice of a not so smart blonde on "King Of The Hill".

    She is another in an unfortunate growing list of talent lost too early. My thoughts and prayers go out to her mother and her husband at what can only be described as the most awful time of their lives.

    A misguided talent with a gift for comedy. hide show

    Brittany seems to have lost some of her charm and genius over the years. In the early days she was awlays a bit kooky and very cute and had a rare talent for physical comedy (she can do an excelent prat-fall). Lately she has dyed her hair blond, become very skinny and gone for the more glamourous roles. There are too many women in Hollywood trying to play the love interest for someone like Brittany who can produce a depth of caracter from a simple cameo to stoop to thier level. She should also know that she looks so much better with dark hair and normal (and much more sexy) body shape. I believe she has an extraodrinary talent that is currently going untapped and as long as she stays in Hollywood she will be struggling to keep her head above that sad mire of mediocraty.

    Wonderful actress! hide show

    Brittany Murphy is a great actress! She got her big break as Tai Fraiser in Clueless, as a geeky girl. Brittany was in 8 Mile as Alex, Molly Gun in Uptown Girls, Lisa Swenson in Drop Dead Gorgeous, and many more. She makes her movies interesting, by working hard, and staying in character too. Brittany also lens her voice in King of the Hill, as Louanne. I'm just surprised that Brittney isn't in more movies.

    Brittany Murphy is overrated. She is not hot. In fact, she needs to eat some food. As for her acting skills, she seems to play the same role in every movie.
