Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Murphy died of pneumonia and anemia in December 2009, just four months before the film's release. Her husband Simon Monjack died of the same causes five months later.
The film was shot in 2008 during Murphy's final productive period; some critics read her physical frailty in the role as unintentional method acting.
