| | Drew Barrymore Biography :: Hollywood.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01) |
 | | A victim of 1980s Hollywood lifestyle, Barrymore had too much too soon, and began to attract less attention for her acting than for the increasingly sordid tabloid stories about her pre-adolescent addictions to drugs and alcohol. |
 | | Barrymore was thrilled with the character, a smart, sensitive, but staunch young woman dealing with family issues, and the structure of the film, which differed from the traditional beautiful girl with ugly oppressors saved by a fairy godmother story. |
 | | Barrymore has also displayed a certain savvy behind the scenes, serving as a producer on several projects via her company, Flower Films, with her partner Nancy Juvonen. |
