Who says fun-loving sorority girls aren't just as smart as anyone else? This appears to be the question Legally Blonde is asking its audience and the results are infectiously fun and charming. Reese Witherspoon stars as Elle Woods, a rich and pampered sorority girl whose rich boyfriend dumps her when he decides he's going to Harvard to become a lawyer and doesn't see her as the kind of wife he needs.
To prove her worth, she studies and gets into Harvard as well, setting herself down a path of self-discovery as she realizes that what she originally thought she wanted out of life might not be all it's cracked up to be. Along the way, she meets a variety of interesting characters who help bring the film to life such as Selma Blair as the new fiancee of Elle's ex-boyfriend and Jennifer Coolidge as Elle's new best friend and confidant, Pauline, who works in a beauty salon and has self-esteem issues of her own.
Legally Blonde is almost effortlessly sweet and funny and has a great message about believing in yourself at all costs.
