A PAMPERED New York princess, whose rock-god dad has died, is left filthy rich and emotionally retarded. A solemn, neurotic eight-year-old. A mutually edifying friendship. Saucereyed and hedgehog-haired, Brittany Murphy thinks, wrongly, that she is adorably kooky as the party girl. At the film's small, still centre is child actress Dakota Fanning, who seems to have taken lessons in world-weary gravitas from the young Christina Ricci. Give that kid her own movie.
