I absolutely loved her in Little Black Book. She will be missed.

I think Hollywood played a major role in her death; what with all the pressure to be "beautiful" and "glamorous" in Hollywood's view. Hollywood didn't just kill a talented actress. They killed a human being.

Notable omissions: Spun and Drop Dead Gorgeous. Spun was so dark and she was great in it. Drop Dead Gorgeous is incredibly funny and her character was great. Her showing off pics of her bro dressed as Liza... lol.

Thank you MssHelloKitty!!!!! Riding in Cars With Boys was a great flick... "My daughter's a tramp!" LOL!!!! Also there's "The Groomsmen" & "Love & Other Disasters" or "The Dead Girl". She did so many wonderful movies. One of my favorites is definitely Uptown Girls, but I loved her in Spun. Talk about wow! And of course her voice in Happy Feet was AMAZING! She was a fantastic actress, but her memory will live on forever. Such a sad tragic loss. My prayers and thoughts are with her family in this difficult time!!!! RIP Brittany!
