I saw this in 2010 but seemed to be an old movie but was in color, follows the life of a woman who (accidentally?? not sure) burns her house down as a child (may have killed her parents in the process?), she may have also had her house burnt down a few times in her life, she’s an adult living in a city and she smokes, in one scene her friend tells her to write the name of her crush on her cigarette because that will make them like you back- she writes the name “Sasha” which is the name of the guy her friend likes too (I’m pretty sure she doesn’t end up with him), the whole movie is pretty heavy I think and at the end she gets run over by a car and dies
