In a photograph from a 1993 profile in Vanity Fair, the actress Shannen Doherty lounged in a puddle of Borzoi, a cigarette between her lips. The image was widely circulated on social media after Ms. Doherty died of cancer on Saturday at 53. It seemed to capture much of what fans will miss about the actress: her easy glamour, her reputation for defiance, her grit. “Shannen Doherty had the heart of a lion,” the actress Rose McGowan, who replaced Ms. Doherty in the fourth season of “Charmed,” wrote on Instagram on Sunday. Shannen was passion.”
