The following semester, Professor Callahan, the school`s most respected teacher, decided to hire first-year interns to help solve a high-profile case. Among the elected officials are Elle, Warner and Vivian. Callahan defends a prominent fitness trainer named Brooke Windham, one of Elle`s role models. Brooke, who is accused of murdering her husband, does not want to provide him with an alibi, and she later reveals to Elle that she underwent liposuction, a fact that would ruin her reputation, which she does not want to reveal. Vivian gains a new respect for Elle, revealing that Warner could not go to Harvard without her father`s help. Emmett Richmond, Callahan`s junior partner, also recognized his potential. Legally Blonde is a 2001 American drama film directed by Reese Witherspoon. The story of Elle begins as cliché as possible: a popular and fashionable girl in a sorority studying fashion marketing is waiting for an exciting proposal from her boyfriend Warner. Instead of a proposal, however, Warner separates from Elle, as he goes to Harvard University to study law and is expected to marry someone smarter than Her. As a reward, she worked hard to secure a place at Harvard Law School.
After realizing that she will never be good enough for Warner, she finds herself in a murder trial and becomes one of the most ambitious students in the course, graduating as a lawyer with a new boyfriend and a new love of life. She goes to the hair affair to say goodbye to Paulette, but before she can leave, Vivienne and Enid convince Elle otherwise. She takes off her navy blue suit, puts on a pink dress and leads a parade in the courtroom. Along the way, they meet Kyle, who has taken a liking to Paulette and turns out to be Irish, which makes everyone in Ireland dance. Back in the trial, Brooke fired Callahan and hired Elle (“Legally Blonde Remix”). Brooke`s daughter-in-law, Chutney, goes to the witness stand and her testimony is damning: after getting out of the shower, she saw Brooke covered in her father`s blood. After Chutney explains that she received a permanent on the day of the murder, she realizes a flaw in Chutney`s alibi and suggests that the entire court should be moved to the crime scene – the bathroom where the murder took place (“crime scene”). As a demonstration, she asks Paulette to give Enid a perm and asks Enid to enter the shower when entering the crime scene.
Elle`s demonstration builds on her knowledge of hair care and succeeds when Enid gets out of the shower with his hair completely flattened – revealing that the chutney could not have showered immediately after getting a perm because his perm was still intact. Under intense interrogation, Chutney confesses that she killed her father because she thinks it was Brooke (“Omigod You Guys (Reprise)”). Chutney is arrested and Brooke is released. Witherspoon wore 40 different hairstyles in the film. [22] “Oh my God, it became known as `The hair that ate Hollywood,`” Luketic said. It was all about hair. I have this obsession with flyaways. It annoyed Reese a bit because I always had hairdressers on my face. But most of the time, the research and testing on set went in the right color, because `blonde` is open to interpretation, I thought. [12] The fictional college where Elle studies fashion merchandising at the beginning of the film was originally supposed to be USC in the film itself, but the university did not grant permission to use her name, the Los Angeles Times noted.
Therefore, Elle is a “CULA” student in the film; The first scenes of the fictional college, including the opening of Elle`s sister house, were filmed on the CalTech campus. Elle Woods, a fashion merchandising student and sister daughter, is taken to an expensive restaurant by her Warner Huntington III boyfriend. She is waiting for a marriage proposal, but he breaks up with her instead. With the intention of going to Harvard Law School and becoming a successful politician, he felt that she was not “serious” enough for this kind of life. She believes she can win Warner back if she shows she`s capable of doing the same things. After months of study, she scored 179 on the law school admission test[5] and, combined with her GPA of 4.0, was accepted to Harvard Law School. The “Bend and Snap” scene, in which Elle Paulette explains how she can get her crush`s attention, almost didn`t make it into the film. [29] “[Producer] Marc Platt wanted a B-plot for Paulette (Jennifer Coolidge),” McCullah Lutz told Entertainment Weekly.
“At first, we thought, `Should we rob the store?` Co-writer Kirsten Smith said: “I think we spent a week or two figuring out what the B-plot and this big setting should be. There were criminal conspiracies. We pitched scene by scene and everything seemed very weird in terms of sound. [29] Producer Marc Platt was fascinated by the character of Elle Woods when he received a manuscript of an unpublished novel. [8] “What I liked about this story is that it`s hilarious, sexy and challenging at the same time,” says Platt. “The world looks at Her and sees someone who is blond and handsome, but no more. She, on the other hand, does not judge herself or anyone else. She thinks the world is great, she`s great, everyone is great, and nothing can change that. She truly is an irrepressible modern heroine. Amanda Brown published Legally Blonde in 2001, based on her real-life experiences as a blonde who attended Stanford Law School while obsessed with fashion and beauty, read Elle magazine, and frequently clashed with the personalities of her peers.[8] [6] “I went out to eat with them.
It is a kind of anthropological study. You learn what they eat, how they behave, how they take care of their young, things like that,” she said.
