Man at His Best
If Brittany Murphy ever asked us to sit through Fried Green Tomatoes, we'd be there with some Twizzlers and a
box of Kleenex, because Murphy is the kind of girl you can't say no to.
Want proof?
Ask Hollywood casting agents, who have been saying yes to Murphy since she was nine years
old.
And this fall, the former dork from Clueless has a hat trick.
She's a waitress in Edward Burns's Sidewalks of New York, a psychiatric patient in
Don't Say a Word with Michael Douglas, and the best friend of our cover girl,
Drew Barrymore, in Penny Marshall's sure-to-be-touchy-feely Riding in cars with Boys.
In honor of Riding, Murphy picks the top five girly movies that men should see.
1. Little Women (1994)
"Men can learn a lot about how sisters interact by watching this movie."
2. When Harry met Sally (1989)
"A classic. It'll give men hope that everything can work out in the end."
3. Steel Magnolias (1989)
"Dolly Parton was great, and I've always thought Shirley MacLaine was fantastic."
4. Cabaret (1972)
"The whole thing is magical, and I love Liza Minnelli. But I've been told this
isn't much of a girl movie."
5. Sophie's Choice (1982)
"Again, not really a chick flick But I love it. so I couldn't resist. Heartrending and incredible."
Please buy this magazine, as always the images look much better in the
magazine than scanned in, and we want to encourage them to keep writing great
Brittany articles and doing interviews!
