Holy shit…I knew she barely acted after but didn’t realize she died. Huge shame. She was excellent in this movie.

Jeez, even the wiki doesn't list a cause after all this time. How awful.

Reece Witherspoon? And what happened to Matthew Broderick?

The last thing I saw from Broderick was his briefly recurring role on the fantastic (recently concluded) TV series Better Things. He was terrific.

he had a hilarious 2-3episode stint in 30 Rock as “Cooter”

She was excellent, as was everyone (I honestly think Witherspoons performance is one of the great comic roles of all time).
Also, Election is just about the only movie where text on a poster makes me laugh harder than any spoken line. Whenever I see “Paul Metzler You Betzler!” I lose my shit haha

She was a real standout during her short career.
Gone before 40, what a shame.
