Legally Blonde Movie Review 2001

Beverly Hills blonde Elle Woods (Witherspoon) is a sorority babe who dresses in pink and has her Chihuahua Bruiser as a constant companion. After getting dumped by frat boyfriend Warner (Davis), who's on his way to Harvard Law School, Elle wallows in chocolate-fueled misery. But determined to show him that's she more than the sum of her pretty parts, Elle also gets accepted and shows all those pasty-faced easterners, including Warner's new fiancee, brunette Vivian (Blair), that she has brains as well as blonde roots when she gets involved in a big murder case. Witherspoon is a delight in a very lightweight comedy.
