Shannen Doherty will always be 20 years old. In our hearts as viewers, the actress who died this Saturday, July 13 at the age of 53 from cancer will forever be Brenda Walsh, a young and pretty brunette who moved with her twin brother Brandon to “Beverly Hills”, the luxurious Los Angeles neighborhood that gave its name to the cult soap opera of the 1990s. Brenda, Brandon, Kelly, Dylan, Donna, David, friends for life. For ten years, her group of friends was also ours, as teenagers who had their faces on the posters stuck in our childhood bedrooms.
The heartaches of Brenda and Dylan, the dark bad boy, came to console ours. With Kelly, the blonde to die for, these three formed an irreconcilable love triangle. At a time when the economic crisis and AIDS darkened the horizon of a carefree youth, their lives as a good family of the uneasy kind had the effect of a comfort blanket for an entire generation.
