You have the Warners and the Callahans, who seem to see her as a commodity, you have the Emmetts, who listen to her, and then you have the Stromwells and Vivians, who take the time to get to know her and are better for it. Much of the movie is a fine exercise in character development for everyone.
One of the best feminist messages in a movie, because it’s not about women acting like men to succeed in a man’s world or denying their femininity but instead being themselves and succeeding through that.
You do realise femininity is forced on women, right? Women don't naturally desire to dye our hair blonde, wear skirts and high heels. So when women reject the stereotypes that men expect us to conform to, we're not denying our femininity, we're breaking free of that silly gender role that you call femininity.
Fun Fact: The blonde combing her hair and getting ready in this scene is not actually Reese Witherspoon. It was a stand-in, as Reese was making another movie at the time.
2000s style it's a trend now. But i think not all ppl dressed like that. Maybe we have to wait in 2020s and wishing that this style could came back😭 i'm actually only 14 y.o but i love those style
Such a good example of scene setting under credits: Interesting, totally brings the audience in and, if you'll notice, doesn't include any of the lead characters so it could be shot with non-speaking extras by a completely different unit at any time. Really nice job by the director/producers. Just a great example. Thanks for posting!
I agree, but admittedly I don't know much about film making. It is a good use of a shit song though, as the song in the background is almost as bad as Rebecca black's Friday. I'm not sure, but I think Esham, or maybe ICP made a remix of it, including lyrics about committing murders, as well as the life of a junkie. In this case, it is effective for setting the scene as it introduces the ridiculous theme of the movie. A while back, while slightly stoned, a guy I know watched the movie just to mock it, meaning it just doesn't appeal to idiots, so in a way it's like some of the best movies, it can be enjoyed in a number of levels.
Paramanic Ireland From a commercial standpoint, both songs you mention and the movie itself were wildly successful. This is proven fact...at least financially. Applying your personal taste to poo-poo something this successful may show that you beat your own drum, but my original comment commended the producers for being able to select a song and opening that appealed on a mass scale. This is not an easy thing to achieve.
From a commercial standpoint, it was brilliant, but in the same way mainstream pop is among teenyboppers. I didn't mean to "poo poo" the song or film, or to beat my own drum, I was just saying that many people would think the song is "whimsical" as many people put it. While it is similar to 'Friday', it is admittedly a lot better. I was praising the producers/ director, etc. as they managed to make a film that was commercial, but with the right mindset, could be fun for the type of person who would not appreciate that type of film, to treat as satire, of; the legal profession, the blonde stereotype, and the intelligence level of those who they enjoy the film, who they would regard as idiots.
***** In the commentary they said the scene where we see Elle brushing her hair from the back wasn't even Reese Witherspoon. Since you don't see her face they were able to use a different girl for that part.
This is so early 2000’s! I was in high school when this movie came out. Elle is the one who started my ventures into French manicures,OPI polish and Clinique happy perfume. Man those were the days!
Elle Woods will always be a queen. Thank you for motivating me to never give up and never let bad people draging me down. I know this is just a movie but thanks to it I studied law and became a legal associate😊
I love this movie. I enjoyed the experience of getting to participate in such an awesome film as Legally Blonde. I would not have wanted it any other way. It was a perfect day for me!
A great bookending song for the movie. At the beginning Elle feels like a it’s going to be a Perfect Day... by the end, it actually is. And she went through a lot to get there.
this soriority looks looks like fantasy but honestly when you have someone as bubbly, happy, and and full of enegry as Elle as your president I am not surprised this energy is passed onto everyone else.
I'm from Hollywood, California living currently in Cambridge, Massachusetts...Love this film! Love Hoku, the ultra talented daughter of the 70's star, Dan Ho...
Lmao whenever I bring up this movie all of my guy friends are like "tf are you talking about". Sorry that I grew up in a house full of girls. Like shit I grew up watching Barbie and chick flicks 😂😂👌👌
I love this movie so much. Great times!! I had this song in my head and had to pull it up. My son just had a great ending to a “perfect day” of his own, winning the baseball game (11-0) and his first time pitching in a game, catching the last out. Got the game ball too! ⚾️ Moms who love this great movie help their kids aspire to their own “Perfect Day”!
Fun Fact: Hoku's song Another Dumb Blonde was the theme song for the movie Snow Day... Her song Perfect Day was the theme song for the movie Legally Blonde.
This film will always be my guilty pleasure. My favourite forever . When I hear the music I get so excited and I reach for my glass of wine and the world is a better place 🥰

I remember watching this movie in 9th grade and now I'm in freshmen college and I'm still watching it I love this movie even through I'm Mexican American I act consided when I watch this movie like elle so if I ever have a daughter I'm name her Elle 💕
What This scene Tells my mind is ➡️ reading a book in week or achieving in anything is not hard, bcs I can do when I truly believe in myself. And wanna show that I’m capable of doing that. ❤️😌
This is going to out me as a cultural philistine, but watching Wednesday Addams watch the intro to Legally Blonde was the happiest I've been with popular entertainment in 5 years.
Miss those days..i was a pre teen and a big dreamer when this came out..now I am 30..and do feel bit like 13 going on 30. Nostalgic for those simpler times 🌺🧚🏻♀️💗💗
The 2000s were a really different time fashion wise.
@Kry Kry Stott well 2000s styles it's a trend now
Yeah it was the best
@Kry Kry Stott same
I love it
@Kry Kry Stott I think it was cool except for the excessive color combinations coz im a girl that lives black.
try to live everyday like Elle Woods after Warner told her she wasn't smart enough for Harvard Law School.
Sae Great Advice 💕💕

needed this.
A total wreak? But then she got herself together?
It starts up like a Barbie movie
BlackRoseEnchantress
The whole song is in a Barbie movie...
it is in a Barbie movie, Princess and the Popstar to be exact
well it's in a barbie movie soooo
iiMarley20ii Legally blonde used the song first but it doesn’t matter
Except Barbie comes out on top, where she belongs.
I love how this movie breaks the "dumb blonde" sterotype.
Ethereal Rose amen.
May the lord be with you.
And the NLOG thing too
They still stupid, she was just driven.

I'm a boy and she's my idoll I love her character so much that I start wearing pinkss
Pink is a nice color bro. I wear pink but not cause of Elle.
PREACH !!!
Sadly the sequel ruined that message.
Fun Fact: The blonde combing her hair and getting ready in this scene is not actually Reese Witherspoon. It was a stand-in, as Reese was making another movie at the time.
Eva Salacova yeah, Reese mentioned that in the commentary
Eva Salacova which movie was she making?
*pretends i didn't see this*
Lots of movies do this such as Sandra Bullock
I always thought that hair was so pretty
This makes me actually want to get ready in the morning and not be lazy.
lol I use this song as my alarm cause it actually gets me psyched in the morning.
