DVD Description
Brittany Murphy (Don’t Say A Word) and Dakota Fanning (I Am Sam) shine brighter than all the lights of Manhattan in this delightful New York fairy tale. Co-starring Marley Shelton (Never Been Kissed), Donald Faison (Scrubs) and Heather Locklear (Spin City), Uptown Girls will make you laugh, cry … and laugh again! Molly (Murphy) is a partying rock ‘n’ roll princess whose money just ran out. Ray (Fanning) is a fussy nine-year-old whose last nanny ran out. Only Ray’s way-too-busy mom (Locklear) could think that hiring Molly would be the perfect set-up for both girls. But as this unlikely pair faces everything from control issues (Ray’s, of course) to temper tantrums (Molly’s, of course), they discover that sometimes your best friend can come from the place you least expect!

Synopsis
Brittany Murphy and Dakota Fanning star in this charming romp about a young woman and a young girl who are thrust together against the odds but ultimately teach each other something about life and love. Murphy is Molly Gunn, a rock and roll princess whose father was a famous music legend. She lives wildly off her inheritance--until the man in charge of her money run off with it. With bankruptcy staring her in the face, she is forced to do something she never dreamed of--get a job. So she becomes a nanny--for precocious Ray Schleine (Fanning), an eight-year-old who acts more mature than she does but doesn't have much fun in life.
Boaz Yakin's comedy is filmed throughout New York City and it takes advantage of that setting like few recent films. The streets of the city are another character as Molly and Ray slowly begin to develop a relationship that neither one ever dreamed would happen. The movie features support from Heather Locklear as Ray's very busy record executive mum, Donald Faison as Molly's party-loving music friend, and Jesse Spencer as Molly's musician boyfriend, who did all his own singing on the film and whose work appears on the soundtrack album.

Customer Reviews

good chemistry between the two main actresses
This movie will make you laugh and even make you cry.But the first 30 minutes are a bit of a bore and the dialogue a bit plain and uninteresting.However its worth seeing for the last hour or so.The chemistry between Brittany Murphy and Dakota Fanning is good - and the main reason to watch the film.

Brilliant!
This is one great chick flick comedy about a fussy nine year old child (dakota fanning) and a party princess(brittany murphy)as Molly whom just ran out of money. The movie becomes better when Molly becomes Rays(fanning) babysitter.
A wonderful movie for all the family! Lovely story.
