Murphy’s Guffaw

Introducing The Ramen Girl, starring Brittany Murphy. It’s the soaring tale of a young girl abandoned in scary Tokyo by her mean boyfriend, leaving her with only one option–starting a kooky affair with Bill Murray! Wait… no. Wrong movie. I mean: Learning to make noodles!

Highlights from the above preview:

• Murphy’s character slowly pronouncing the word "ramen," as if it weren’t something we’ve all been snarfing down in infancy and drunken collegiate stupors alike.
• Murphy’s character, announcing with passion: "I wanna cook ramen. I wanna make people the way you do!"
• Oh, Brittany. You don’t have to go to all that trouble–what with ripping the cellophane and boiling the water and locating that little spice pack–you’ve pretty much made my week already.
