Leerhsen starred opposite Michael Peña in the independent comedy drama film '' Little Athens '' ( 2005 ) , which screened at the Toronto International Film Festival , and was released straight-to-DVD , to a mixed critical reception . While '' Variety '' remarked that Leerhsen and co-star Jill Ritchie were " stuck with narrowly conceived , deeply dislikable gals " , she was praised by Mark Bell from '' Film Threat '' who , in his review , wrote that the actress " proves that the '' Blair Witch 2 '' was as much a blip in her acting skill as the film was in the pop culture conscienceness . Her interplay with Rachel Miner is true in the way that smalltown friendships really are : simple seemingly on the surface , but built on such complex webbing and history that every nuance , statement or situation is to be weighed and studied . " In 2006 , Leerhsen made a guest appearance in the TV show '' Ghost Whisperer '' , and appeared as the female leading character Bronwin in the romantic comedy '' Mozart and the Whale '' , which was released in limited theaters . Leerhsen also guest appeared in a 2006 episode of the CBS crime drama series '' CSI : Miami '' . In the drama '' The Warrior Class '' , Leerhsen played the drug-addict wife of a mafia boss ( Jake Webber ) . The film was filmed in 2004 but was released directly-to-DVD on February 6 , 2007
