I really like that they didn’t go the route of having Elle ruin Vivian in some way. They were rivals over Warner but Elle just tried to show her own good attributes rather than taking Vivian down. A lot of movies would have had them fighting over him and Vivian would have to “lose”. Instead they both win and become friends.
Exactly. So much better, and the audience has to shift and grow with the characters.
Fun fact! Elle needed a 175 on the LSATs and a perfect score is 180. She almost got a perfect score and only missed a few questions. Also Fashion Merchandising is a business degree, so not as easy or frivilous as they make it sound. I love that she was always smart, but she decided to channel it into a different direction.
Also love that almost all the girls are shown to be very supportive and kind to each other. The sorority ladies were all on board immediately. Vivian was being fed ideas by Warner im sure, but even she turned around and was super nice.
She needed a 175 to pass but got a 179 so she got an almost perfect score. That just shows that she actually is really smart and this is what she's supposed to be doing.
Realistically, Elle would be an obvious admission to Harvard, aside from the video essay. Most grad schools, including law schools, genuinely don't care about what your major was in undergrad, and they do kind of get a kick out of bragging about what weird majors they've turned into their own students. When i was looking at vet schools, they bragged that they've had people who studied cello and computer science in undergrad graduate from their vet school. It's like they recognize that most people don't already know exactly what they want to do for the rest of their lives when they declare a major at 20 or 21 years old.
Being president of a sorority is also genuinely looked upon favorably because it takes actual leadership to coordinate a chapter of a nationwide organization. And a perfect score on the LSAT is a 180. Elle got a 179. That is an extremely impressive score.
Right. I was specifically told when I was applying and writing my essay that they want students who will hang in there and graduate and get a job, because that is taken into consideration in determining ranking and funding. Not to mention that Elle still would have to have taken all the core courses in addition to the fashion and businesses courses and she carried a 4.0 GPA. That is nothing to look down your nose at.
That is true about not knowing what you want to do for more people than not. I was on the other side. When I found I could do math problems in my head in the 2nd grade, I knew I wanted to be an accountant/business/finance person. And I had that desire all the way thru graduation of college. Got a job at Charles Schwab after 8 years at a local bank and moved up quickly to AVP. But a vacation of riding with my friend who drove a semi-truck across the country, I found my real desire. I quit my job where I was about to be appointed partner and got my Commercial license and for 15 years, I didnt even feel I was working. Life is funny. But I AM a truck driver..it is who I am..but dont regret my first 20 years in finance, but just found something more fun. And if you hold a CDL and dont have accidents, you can work for anybody you want..that job market is always hiring. I recommend getting one and keeping it current even if you are working in a different field. Maybe that job market is shaky..if it gets tough, you have a backup job immediately by just applying.
David Kidney who Elle helps with the slap is actually Oz Perkins son of Anthony Perkins from Psycho! The book set the law school at Stanford( ironically where Reese studied undergrad) but they would not allow filming so they picked Harvard as a second choice. The counselor at her former school was on the tv show Moonlighting with Bruce Willis. I did a weird thing with a resume too even typing in sideways plus taping a penny to it and got the internship at Paramount Pictures. As strange as this film might seem, weird things can happen! The woman who plays the murder defendant was in the first Final Destination films. The guy playing the delivery guy was in a tv series called Kyle XY. This film reminds me of the female centric film with Hailey Mills The Trouble with Angels.
Since the law encompasses nearly every single aspect of life, varied backgrounds and areas of expertise are actually encouraged.
Knowledge of fashion would certainly benefit anyone specializing in something like trademark or intellectual property disputes.
I get so excited when you are watching something I have watched so I can watch😂😂
Love this movie. Love how nice and beautiful she is AND smart. They didn't pull her character down in anyway
They recognized every actors and actresses in the movie lol
I love how empowering this movie is, like Believe in yourself, Find yourself, Trust yourself, Feminism, BE yourself.... in any order😄
Also if any of you watched the show Moonlight (Bruce Willis, Kathleen Turner) you might recognize the guidance counselor
Moonlighting
Cybill Shepherd, Bruce Willis
used to watch episodes on TV in my neck of the woods in Scandinavia, after getting home from the night shift around 2000 at around 5 AM
Empowerment is also much easier when you have money and resources…
Just wanted to say I really enjoy your reaction videos. I love the dynamic between you & your mom. When you both start laughing, it’s contagious. Keep up the great work!

Exercise gives you endorphins, endorphins make you happy. Happy people don't shoot their husbands. They just don't.

Every time I get a package from UPS, I think about the bend and snap . . .
This is movie is such a classic. If you're in Jakarta this November, there'll be a production of Legally Blonde the Musical too.
Stifler's Mom is awesome!!
Love this movie
It's one of my guilty pleasures!!
Wonderful surprise!
I love everything about this movie.....except the bend and snap. I always fast forward through that. I love how it deals with prejudice and first impressions.
There's also a virtual reunion somewhere online, from earlier covid days, I think because of an anniversary or "just" for fans to hold on to, can't remember really, but it was pretty cool
You might consider checking out one of Reese's earliest movies "A Far Off Place" (1993). It's a drama and a really great showcase of her acting chops.
Glad you’re seeing this. I’m saving this to watch later. I’m sure it will be awesome.
"If you tell him, he'll probably hire you as a summer ***ociate". 😂 The subtitles censoring parts of words now.
Spending the evening here watching
She based the role on Pvt. Benjamin. Another blonde role of Goldie Hawn.
I was wondering when and or if this would come down here, and yay!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love reactions to this movie a lot, and I'm super looking forward to yours, there's just so much in this! glad I decided not yet to go to bed xD (it being 5:58am *lol*)
😊
This is a very cute movie. I totally forgot that Holland Taylor was in it (Professor Stromwell). The only complaint I have is that Jennifer Coolidge was criminally under-utilized. She is capable of so much more! Anyway, I enjoyed watching you guys, as always!
I really enjoyed this reaction. Love the accent, too! 🇨🇦
Eh?! 😊
That's a fun one
Great reaction
Love this movie iconic
My Dad was a third of his name. And he hated it because he thought it made him sound like a pretentious rich boy, even though it wasn't him.
DANIEL went to the lion's den, not David. cheesh.
Hey! I love “Legally Blonde”! Why don’t you react to “Rush hour” with Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker in it. A hilarious movie!
You are both so sweet and funny 🖤
Now do the right thing and stay away from parts 2 and 3. Trust me.
Kgf 2 post credit seen reaction plz
