Rewind, Be Kind: Uptown Girls
The late Brittany Murphy plays the role of Molly with such nuance. Roger Ebert, one of the only critics at the time of release who praised the film, compared Brittany Murphy to Lucille Ball in her talents in physical comedy and ability to “[capture] the attention of every person in [a] distracted and chattering crowd”. Dakota Fanning is a true stand out as well– although considered one of the best child actors of the time, this role is often overlooked as the genuinely great dramatic performance it is. Many criticisms of the film, which were unfortunately common at the time, cited “annoying” or “unlikable” performances and female protagonists, when they were simply multi-faceted and imperfect characters who…didn’t need to be likable all the time!

Remembering Brittany Murphy's Life and Career in Pictures 10 Years After Her Death
Brittany Murphy was the tragically young age of 32 when she died suddenly 10 years ago.
Her life had taken some surprising turns in the years since she first caught most moviegoers' eyes in Clueless as the new girl in school who gets a crash course in popularity from Alicia Silverstone and Stacey Dash, but both busy with work and thinking about starting a family, she seemed happy.
On Dec. 1, 2009, she attended the premiere of the bare-bones noir thriller Across the Hall, in which she played a woman who's cheating on her fiancé with his best friend and some intense cat-and-mouse ensues.
