Mischa Barton Dishes On Her Sexy Bathtub Scene, What She Was Like In High School
‘I was a bit of a loner,’ ‘Assassination of a High School President’ star admits at Sundance.
Park City, Utah – In the interest of full disclosure, I’ve never been a huge Mischa Barton fan. Then I saw the Sundance sensation “Assassination of a High School President,” an entertainingly complex flick following the seemingly simple story of a teen reporter on the trail of some missing SATs. Like Mischa herself, the film turns out to be much more complex than you might suspect.
Certainly, the flick will further Bruce Willis’ reputation as having an eye for great indie scripts, following “Pulp Fiction.” It also seems likely to make a star out of Reece Thompson, the 19-year-old star. But it’s Barton’s turn as sexy, whip-smart femme fatale Francesca that should open more eyes than just my own.
Face to face, the in-demand starlet is warm, charming and eager to answer any question you could throw at her. In anticipation of the August release of “Assassination,” we spoke to Barton at the film fest about her sexy bathtub scene, being a loner in high school, and the personalized super-swag that should be arriving at her house any day now.
MTV: This was long-rumored as one of those mythical screenplays Hollywood was dying to shoot. What did you think when you first read it?
Mischa Barton: The first time I read it, awhile ago now, it just stood out to me. Even the title of the film stands out, you know? As soon as I read “Assassination of a High School President,” I was hooked. It’s a great script. Continue…

Pictures of Mischa at the Sundance Film Festival will follow with the next update!
First of all, sorry about the little downtime. I upgraded the site and gallery scripts to the newest version. Most likely, most of you have heard about Mischa getting arrested for DUI. I want to point out that I was pretty shocked and pissed when I first heard about this. While, I’m pretty much against everything alcohol and drug related, I think that you’re allowed to make your own mistakes. I really hope that Mischa learnt her lesson and that we’re not going to hear anything again!
Barton arrested for DUI
Actress Mischa Barton has been arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence (DUI). The 21-year old was also booked for possession of marijuana and driving without a licence, according to Los Angeles police. Barton was driving her white Range Rover in West Hollywood when stopped by police at 02:46 local time. Police said her car was straddling two lanes of traffic and that she had failed to signal when making a turn. She was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanour drunk driving after failing a field sobriety test. “During Ms Barton’s detention, it was determined that she was an unlicensed driver and was driving while under the influence of an alcoholic beverage,” the official report added. “Ms Barton was arrested and transported to West Hollywood Sheriff’s station where the booking process was completed without incident.” Sergeant John Hocking of the Los Angeles Country Sheriff’s department said the actress was also suspected to be in possession of marijuana and an undisclosed controlled substance. Barton was jailed for around seven hours in lieu of $10,000 (£5,000) bail. … read more »
OC star Mischa Barton has thought about giving up acting.
The 21-year-old, who appeared in hit movie Notting Hill aged 12 before shooting to fame as Marissa Cooper in The OC, said that her film career had been an emotional roller coaster.
“I’ve grown up so much as an actress,” she said. “There’s been times I’ve thought, ‘I don’t want to be an actress forever’ and there are times when I feel I can’t live without it because I love it so much. It’s a wild ride.”
Mischa, who plays a former head-girl in the remake of St Trinian’s and stars in the wartime love story Closing Ring, also revealed she missed The OC experience.
“It’s a bit like high school,” she said.
“You wouldn’t want to do it again, but you get nostalgic about the experience.”
The brunette beauty, who split from rocker Cisco Adler at the beginning of this year, added that she was too busy with her career to worry about finding a man.
“I’m so happy I’m single,” said Mischa, who has another four films coming out in 2008.
I want to wish all of you a merry christmas, great holidays and a happy new year! I decided to put this site on a little winter break. Don’t worry, we’re back in January 2008 with the latest on our favourite beauty! Huge thanks to all of you for making this site as great as it is by now!
Mischa attended the “Une Journee A Paris” hosted by Van Cleef & Arpels on September 04. She looked soo beautiful!!! There are also several new candids of lovely Mischa out and about in Soho on September 02.
Sadly, our last update is gone. We moved to a new server and on it’s way to it the update got deleted. Anyway, I re-uploaded all pictures again and I’m really sorry for all this! Happy watching!
