The Ramen Girl (2008) starring Brittany Murphy & Toshiyuki Nishida


Listen Later

To pre-teens and teens growing up in the 90s and early 2000s, Brittany Murphy was an ICON. Her performances in Clueless and Girl, Interrupted prove that there's no denying– she was the "it girl". One of the last films she made before she died, The Ramen Girl was Murphy's early foray into producing. Although the film received little publicity, it shows off Murphy's unforgettable acting talent and her skills in developing a character that is flawed yet lovable. The hosts discuss cultural differences in Japan, the pre-foodie era, and the behind-the-scenes of a film that features one of the best talents of a generation.
