yeah. to my impressionable 90s teenage spirit, brittanny murphy was a goddess once she spoke that iconic line “you’re a virgin who can’t drive” in that also iconic movie commentary about youth, pop culture and capitalism, Clueless. murphy was also memorable as the suicidal bulemic in Girl Interrupted (perhaps the last decent movie Winona Ryder starred in). some say she was good in Ramen Girl. murphy had a anorexic look charm about her, her troubled doe eyes spoke of so many emotions all at once. i really think she was an underrated actress.
her death was so sudden. how can one die at the age of 32 due to cardiac arrest? but she’s dead. and once again, in december, hollywood has lost another great talent.
