Uptown Girls

Details

Hot Hollywood star Brittany Murphy's latest movie Uptown Girls is a heart-warming, funny tale of two very different girls discovering the best in each other. Full of good music, good one-liners and brilliant performances the girly Uptown Girls will be available to own on DVD from 21st June 2004 from MGM Home Entertainment Limited.

Murphy (8 Mile, Just Married, Dont' Say a Word) stars as Molly Gunn, the free-spirited daughter of a late, great rock star who has never managed to find her way to settle down and manage her life and money. She is a party girl who is constantly getting her heart broken and now she has had all her money stolen. Destitute Molly takes a job as a nanny to an uptight young girl - played by rising young star Dakota Fanning (Sweet Home Alabama, The Cat in the Hat) - with an unloving businesswoman for a mother - Heather Locklear (Looney Tunes: Back in Action, Spin City) in a great cameo role.

Her precocious charge, Ray, is "an eight year old going on forty" who doesn't take well to her new mad, messy nanny and does everything that she can to put Molly in her place. But at heart Ray is a lonely little girl desperate for someone to love her and come and watch her ballet classes!

As the two very different girls try to make their arrangement work, they soon discover a true friend in the other and manage to combine the responsibilities of adulthood with the freedom of being a child.
