- Hi [laughs].
I'm Brittany Murphy, and
we're, right now, at the Blockbuster video store,
which is pretty busy this time of day,
at 51st and 8th Avenue.
New York City [laughs],
center of the universe,
greatest city on Earth.
And I'm here to pick out some good videos.
My favorite videos.
I'm overworked,
I'm overtired,
and I can relax and watch the things that I love.
So, come on, we'll have fun.
Shh, don't tell anybody! [laughs]
We're OK! Everybody's OK [laughs].
I didn't do that.
I don't know who just did that [laughs].
It sure as heck wasn't me.
[Laughs]
So, we found ourselves in the comedy aisle, and
I would recommend any Drew Barrymore film.
They're all very happy.
I like to rent happy movies
and have a happy time.
Relaxing, romantic comedies.
Chick flicks!
‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s.’
This is an incredible classic.
‘Boomerang.’
Love ‘Boomerang.’
The soundtrack's amazing.
Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore?
I mean, you can't beat this.
This is a perfect rental.
OK, this is hysterical.
Classic.
‘Big Daddy.’
It's a little difficult, because everything seems
to be “simply irresistible” right now.
Where's ‘Superstar’?
OK, wait.
I have to see that today.
‘Superstar’ is the best comedy that I've seen
in a really long time.
Mary Katherine.
OK, wait.
Ready?
[Sniffs]
Superstar!
So, we love this movie [laughs].
This is really funny.
You have to rent this.
‘Reality Bites,’
which I just saw somewhere.
I don't know where it is.
I’m 24 now, and
I remember when I actually
hit the age that people were
in ‘Reality Bites.’
I was a little shocked
because they always seemed so much older
and cooler than me.
And they still are [laughs],
but this film is sort of priceless and timeless,
and has one of my favorite actresses
and friends, Winona Ryder, in it.
And Ben Stiller's hysterical.
He directed it.
Ethan Hawke is great.
It pretty much captures the Gen X generation, but
I'm actually not a Gen X member.
I missed it by, like, a year or two.
So, I still appreciate the film.
[Brittany] Wait, let me get the face right.
It’s amazing what 10 years can do [laughs].
If I wasn’t in it, I would definitely recommend this,
because that's a really happy movie.
The piano scene, it’s a classic,
and Tom Hanks, Penny Marshall,
you can't beat it.
‘Big.’
So, we’re gonna take this one.
Oh god, ‘Beverly Hills Cop.’
I have to take this.
This wasn't what I was planning on,
but ‘Beverly Hills Cop’ is also a classic.
And funny.
Just want happiness,
endorphins flowing.
When you laugh, you have endorphins.
It's a medically proven fact that when you laugh,
it's healthier for your entire body.
[Laughs] Kidding! OK.
I used to do, like, the fashion runway.
This is the drama department.
There’s a lot of new — what’s in ‘Dramas’?
Um [laughs], OK.
Come on, guys!
OK. We have two movies,
and I wasn't gonna bombard you
with Bob Fosse films either,
but since they're here,
We have ‘Cabaret,’ which is a classic.
I think it's the best World War II film ever made,
in my own personal, humble opinion.
It has — you have everything you want in a film.
Same thing with ‘All That Jazz.’
That’s Roy Scheider.
He was in ‘Jaws,’
amongst many other things,
but you might not recognize him,
and know him from ‘Jaws.’
And both of these films
are definitely
in my top three favorites.
We have
Liza Minnelli.
I mean, Ben Vereen is in this.
What other film can you have
drama, comedy, dancing, music,
everything!
All of it!
‘Moulin Rouge!’, it’s the only film of
modern day to sort of
capture what Bob Fosse was doing in the ’70s.
But if you’re a young filmmaker or if you have a pulse,
please rent ‘Cabaret’ and ‘All That Jazz.’
I am going to, this evening.
- The movie that Steven Spielberg made.
‘A.I.’? ‘I.A.’? ‘E.A.’?
- ‘A.I.’ - ‘A.I.’
- I saw that in the movie theater.
Have you seen it yet?
- No.
- It’s good. It’s very long, though.
But very good.
It has be here somewhere. These are the —
- I would assume it’s under ‘Sci-Fi.’
- Ss! So, maybe, here’s the As.
- It’s ‘A.I.,’ right?
- Yeah, ‘A.I.’ is the name of it.
The little kid from —
that's not it.
- Not even close.
- [Laughs] No, OK. We’ll find it.
Everyone has their own taste in film.
So, I guess it just depends on what you’re into,
but these are some of my favorites.
OK.
Ooh, ‘The Shining.’
We have ‘Shrek’!
‘Shrek’ is incredible!
This is the best movie I saw all last year.
I think everybody's seen it by now
about 500 times,
but this is some funny stuff.
I think I'm gonna rent this, too.
I’m getting a little bit greedy.
I’m sorry, MTV,
but thank you.
So, generally, at the end of a video store trip,
I’ll end up coming to the cash register
and having to weed through everything.
Hey, Sergio. How you doing?
My eyes are a little bit bigger than what I'm able to watch.
So,
I think I’m definitely going to be renting —
what do we have here?
We’re doing ‘Superstar.’
Thank you, Sergio.
We’re doing ‘Reality Bites,’
‘All That Jazz,’
and ‘Cabaret.’
And...
[Whispers] Hopefully, nobody’s watching, but
I’m getting a little too —
‘Big’ and ‘Shrek.’
OK, thank you [laughs].
Superstar!
Can you say it? - Superstar?
- Like, yeah, Mary Katherine.
- No, I can't do that.
- Superstar! [laughs] OK.
Do we have ‘All That Jazz’? Yeah. - Yeah, OK.
- Let's throw in —
We’ll throw in ‘Beverly Hills Cop,’ too.
Not ‘Beverly Hills Cop II,’ but ‘Beverly Hills Cop,’ also.
Sergio, it was a pleasure meeting you.
- Same to you.
- Have a great night. - OK.
- And thank you, bye.
[Brittany] Thank you, MTV.
I'm going back downtown, and I'm sitting on
the counter at Blockbuster, because I can.
And I never will be able to do this again
without getting in trouble.
So, have a wonderful day or night,
or whatever time you’re seeing this.
And I'm going to enjoy my movies today.
Thank you.
Bye.
[Laughs]
Bye.
Goodbye!
Bye!
