Ashton Kutcher’s New Media Thing

Couples end their relationships in a large variety of ways. Sometimes they start to despise each other and the two get to a point when they cannot even think of the other again, let alone see them. But other times things end amicably with no bad blood between the two parties. Kutcher and Murphy fall into the latter category. When the couple ended their engagement, there was no reported exchange of ill words or malicious deeds.

Everything is filtered through Murphy’s tight-knit relationship with her mother, Sharon Sherilyn Fenn. While hinting that their co-dependent connection wasn’t exactly beneficial to Murphy’s worklife, the filmmakers steer clear of outright judgment, and present Sharon as a largely supportive if often helpless cipher. The aim isn’t to smear anyone’s reputation, but instead leave auds sympathizing with and maybe shaking their heads over Murphy’s struggles.
