Trivia:
We see Elle Woods brushing her hair behind the opening credits. This is not Reese Witherspoon, as she was in England finishing The Importance of Being Earnest (2002). moreGoofs:
Factual errors: The graduates are all shown wearing identical hoods over their black gowns. In reality, graduates at Harvard Law School Commencement wear a hood with colors that represent the institution of their highest prior degree, which would differ for each individual. moreQuotes:
Elle: I just don't think that Brooke could've done this. Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don't shoot their husbands, they just don't. moreSoundtrack:

It would seem strange for me to like a "pleasant" summer comedy, but I think this one is actually watchable and even gives laughs sometimes. It is John Grisham meets um, should I say Clueless? A ditzey yet very smart college girl gets dumped by her boyfriend, and figures out that if she becomes a law student and perhaps even a laywer, she might win him back (even after she realizes he's engaged). Clumsy at times and of course cliched (aren't they all nowadays), but also fun in a brainless dead-zone way. B
