Biography (TMDB): Brittany Anne Murphy-Monjack (née Bertolotti; November 10, 1977 – December 20, 2009) was an American actress and singer. Born in Atlanta, Murphy moved to Los Angeles as a teenager and pursued a career in acting. Her breakthrough role was as Tai Frasier in Clueless (1995), followed by supporting roles in independent films such as Freeway (1996) and Bongwater (1998). She made her stage debut in a Broadway production of Arthur Miller's A View from the Bridge in 1997 before appearing as Daisy Randone in Girl, Interrupted (1999) and as Lisa Swenson in Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999). In the 2000s, Murphy appeared in Don't Say a Word (2001) alongside Michael Douglas, and alongside Eminem in 8 Mile (2002), for which she gained critical recognition. Her later roles included Riding in Cars with Boys (2001), Spun (2002), Just Married (2003), Uptown Girls (2003), Sin City (2005), and Happy Feet (2006). Murphy also voiced Luanne Platter on the animated television series King of the Hill (1997–2010). Her final film, Something Wicked, was released in April 2014. On December 20, 2009, Murphy died under disputed circumstances at the age of 32. The coroner's verdict was pneumonia, exacerbated by anemia and addiction to various prescription medicines.

Across the Hall

holds lit Marlboro Red in had and about to take a drag in one of the trailers
Clueless
smokingsides
Alicia smoked pot in one party scene. Camera kind of shifts away during inhale and comes back during exhale. She did look awfully comfortable smoking.
Girl, Interrupted
smokingsides
Countless scenes from both actresses in this film set in a mental hospital ward. Ryder smokes French cigarettes constantly through the first 2/3 or so, while Jolie smokes throughout the whole film, often holding the cigarette in her teeth between drags. At one point they take turns blowing smoke into the face of an apparently catatonic woman. Actually, pretty much every actress in the film smokes. The lighting and editing aren't always the best, but the quantity is overwhelming.
Riding in Cars With Boys
smokingsides
Near the beginning, Barrymore and Murphy each have an inhale and an exhale. Barrymore is with a Marlboro Red, and Murphy's is an all-white. Perez has a couple of inhales near the end.
Sidewalks of New York

Dajani has one inhale/exhale combo filmed looking straight at her. Murphy only holds in one scene, with no inhales or exhales.
Spun
smokingsides
[Murphy] plays a young lady who is hopelessly bound by Meth. Living 'below her station', she is down but not totally out and does several scenes with some good closeups.
The Dead Girl
smokingsides
[Washington] has lots of visible smoke swirling around her once and has one other visible exhale. Wish there were more
The Ramen Girl
smokingsides
