LIMITED EDITION CRAP-PACK: Yes, this blog really likes "least essential" lists. So here's another:

Fametracker.com's Ten Least Essential Summer Films, 2003

To this list, I can only add Uptown Girls, since Jen and I saw the trailer for it before seeing What A Girl Wants last weekend.**

Brittany Murphy, whose only good role was her first, plays a free-spirited rich girl who ends up as the nanny for a precocious obsessive-compulsive seven-year old neglected by her music executive mother (Heather Locklear). Do they . . .
(a) team up to combat a ruthless international crime syndicate?
(b) deliver a withering critique of America's obsession with body image?
(c) help train a crusty old boxer for one last fight?, or
(d) argue at first, but end up learning valuable life lessons from each other?

Hmmm . . . tough one . . .

**Please don't mock me for that -- it's a cute movie.
