There is no denying that Anna Faris plays ditzy to the tee. Despite her well-played, if purposelessly depthless Cindy Campbell in the Scary Movie franchise, she has never played as shallow and ditzy a girl as Brandi, the incredibly idiotic and extremely crass cosmetics-counter girl in this month's Observe and Report. Dressed in outfits the movie's director described as "the dirty intern," Brandi is subjected to a nude man in the mall parking lot and the so-called 'psychological' damage that follows. “When you play a girl who is trying to get the guy, there’s so much pressure to make people fall in love with you," Faris told New York Magazine. "It’s like your job is to be the most charming person you could possibly imagine—who sometimes falls. That’s fun sometimes, but it’s also really exhausting.” Ironically, neither her character nor any other character she has ever played is the typical romantic comedy heroine, and especially not the one in Observe and Report. Instead, she has played (among) a clueless housewife in Brokeback Mountain, a ditzy starlet in Lost in Translation (a performance reportedly based on Cameron Diaz), and a callow Playboy bunny in House Bunny. But it is her shockingly unapologetic performances in the asinine Scary Movie franchise that has people talking about her. She travels to a world of comedy atypical of female comedians- one of slapstick, gross, yet incredibly hysterical humor. She tends to push things to the edge. Her performance in Observe and Report is a clear example of that. Her character, the extremely drunk Brandi, throws up on herself, several times. It is just classlessness, or is it brilliant acting? Lately, the controversy surrounding her new movie centers around a psuedo-rape scene, in which her character Brandi, upon drinking and drugging herself to 'lower her standards' and falling into bed with Seth Rogen's character, becomes unconscious. The sex scene continues, until Rogen stops and wonders if what he is doing is wrong. Faris's character then wakes up and slurs, "Why are you stoppin’, motherf****r?” Faris explains the scene to New York Magazine: “It kind of gives you pause. It’s like date rape. Like, hmmm, that’s funny, uh, right?”
