| Plot: | Elle Woods ('Reese Witherspoon' (qv)) has it all. She's the president of her sorority, a Hawaiian Tropic girl, Miss June in her campus calendar, and, above all, a natural blonde. She dates the cutest fraternity boy on campus and wants nothing more than to be Mrs. Warner Huntington III. But, there's just one thing stopping Warner ('Matthew Davis (I)' (qv)) from popping the question: Elle is too blonde. Growing up across the street from Aaron Spelling might mean something in LA, but nothing to Warner's East-Coast blue blood family. So, when Warner packs up for Harvard Law and reunites with an old sweetheart from prep school, Elle rallies all her resources and gets into Harvard, determined to win him back. But law school is a far cry from the comforts of her poolside and the mall. Elle must wage the battle of her life, for her guy, for herself and for all the blondes who suffer endless indignities everyday. |

Fact errors: SPOILER: 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. Continuity: When Warner is breaking up with Elle, the couple behind Warner pick up their wine glasses twice between shots. Fact errors: When the new law students are introducing themselves, Enid says that she has a Ph.D. in Women's Studies from UC Berkeley. Berkeley doesn't have a graduate program in Women's Studies. SYNC: When Emmet is driving Elle back from the spa, his lips aren't moving as he talks. Fact errors: The portrayal of Harvard Law admissions procedures is not accurate. Fact errors: The judge refers to the case as "the State v. Brooke Windham". Massachusetts, like Pennsylvania, Virginia and Kentucky, is a commonwealth and would have been referred to as such by any judge. Continuity: SPOILER: Elle's make-up changes noticeably when she confronts Warner after Brooke is acquitted. This is because the scene was filmed separately in London while Reese Witherspoon was filming The Importance of Being Earnest (2002). Continuity: The position of Elle's hair changes from in front of her shoulder to behind to back in front while talking to the counselor about attending Harvard Fact errors: In the courtroom scenes the U.S. and state flags have been placed on the incorrect sides. The National flag is to be displayed to the right of the speaker, in this case the judge. GEOG: On the way to meet Mrs. Wyndham at the spa, Elle and Emett drive past assorted subtropical plants. The spa is in Massachusetts where the climate is far too cold for plants to survive. Continuity: The cover of "Seventeen" magazine that the old woman is looking at in the LA beauty shop changes. (This is because the cover was digitally changed to show Josie and the Pussycats (2001)). Continuity: While Elle is presenting Brooke with her gift basket in prison, the flowers are alternately standing up/flopped over between shots. Continuity: When Elle visits Brooke in the prison, her hair changes for being over the phone to under the phone between shots. Continuity: When the group leaves after meeting Brooke for the first time, Elle's hair repeatedly switches from being down by the side of her face, to being behind her ear between shots. Fact errors: Characters make casual references to numerical class ranks at both Harvard and Yale Law Schools. Neither law school ranks students in this manner (Harvard has not done so since the late 1960s), and Yale Law School does not even assign grades (classes are pass/fail). Continuity: When Elle visits the beauty shop for the first time, her hands are alternately in/out of the bowl between shots. Continuity: While Elle is in her dorm room at Harvard and talking to her California friends on the phone, her bedside light turns on and off. Revealing mistakes: When Elle is waiting in line for the drinking fountain, the woman in front of her bends down to make it look like she is drinking but does not actually drink. Continuity: Elle's hair is alternately smooth/wispy between shots when she talks to Vivian in her dorm room. Continuity: When Elle is talking to the woman in the salon about becoming a law student her hair goes from being tucked behind her right ear to hanging loose between shots. Crew: When Elle and Paulette drive to her ex-husband's house to pick up Rufus, the camera is reflected in the car door. Fact errors: When a witness is testifying in a trial, they are only sworn in once, before they are questioned. If they retake the stand for further questioning, they are reminded of their oath. However, Chutney is sworn in the first time - when she is testifying before her mother and the pool attendant - and then again when she goes to answer questions for Elle. Continuity: SPOILER: When Elle is giving her speech at the end of the movie, before she looks at the professor her hair on her shoulder is messed up and then when she looks back it is fixed. SYNC: When Elle is saying goodbye to Paulette in the beauty salon, there is a shot in which Paulette's lips are moving but no audio is heard. Continuity: When the new students are in a circle to introduce themselves there are 6 students shown in the shot of all of them, however when they go round all students individually there are only 5 (including the experienced student) because the fourth student is cut out. Crew: When Elle and Paulette are in the house as the snow begins to fall and they look out the window, we see a reflection of bar holing the camera in the window. Revealing mistakes: When Elle makes her way to the Elevator and gets inside of it, in the gold mirror on the back wall, you can see a shadow of Vivian, who is waiting to come on set for her part of the scene. SYNC: SPOILER: After Elle wins the case, reporters are surrounding her as she and Brooke walk down the stairs. After one reporter asks a question, you can clearly hear Brooke's voice answering the question, however, her lips don't move. Continuity: Warner's hair changes from being combed over(left to right) when he picks Elle up at the sorority house to straight back in the restaurant, also shorter. It is again combed over when he picks her up in the car shortly after. GEOG: It would be nearly impossible for Brooke Taylor to live in a mansion in the Beacon Hill section of Boston. Mansions found on Beacon Hill do not sit on enough land to have a pool. The area is too densely inhabited. Revealing mistakes: SPOILER: When Elle gets in the lift after she has been propositioned by her professor in his office (before she takes over in court), before the lift doors close Vivian's reflection can clearly be seen in the brass plaque opposite the lift before she moves into the shot and converses with Elle. Fact errors: The first law class scene involves Elle getting kicked out of the room for being unprepared to answer questions regarding Gordon v. Steele, a very basic Civil Procedure case. The scene closes with the professor asking Vivian about the result in Gordon v. Steele. She responds that the court held that there was not diversity jurisdiction. The professor replies that Vivian is correct. But, this is entirely the wrong answer. The court in that case held that there was diversity jurisdiction. Merely getting a case wrong would seem trivial, but again this is literally the first case any law student studies in Civil Procedure, a first year class. Fact errors: We know that Elle and Warner are both in Callahan's class together, but that Warner is not in Stromwell's class with Elle. However, Harvard, like most law schools, divides its first year class into sections that take every class together. Warner should either be in all of the same classes as Elle or none of them. Fact errors: SPOILER: In the final graduation scene, the faculty members on the stage are all wearing mortarboard caps. In fact, they should be wearing the traditional "doctors" graduation caps which resemble Scottish tam-o-shanters. Fact errors: SPOILER: Brooke could not have hired Elle as her attorney after firing Callahan. Although Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court rule 3.03 (cited in the film) does state that a law student may appear in court under the supervision of a licensed attorney, two key points from that rule are left out, either of which would have barred Elle from representing Brooke. One, the law student must have taken Evidence, which is not a first year class at Harvard or any other law school. Two, in order to appear in court in a criminal case, the law student must be a third year student. CHAR: In the scene where Elle has arrived at the "costume" party, she has a scene with Warner, she stands very close to him and he puts his hands in his hips and she strokes his arm in a affectionate way, this not only belies the fact that their relationship ended badly, but Vivian (his supposed fiancée) is in the next room. Continuity: When the camera first shows Elle in Professor Callahan's class, she is sitting next to Warner and Vivian. After Callahan is asking them questions, Elle is sitting in the row behind them. Continuity: Shortly after Elle is kicked out of Professor Stromwell's class, and meets Emmett, she runs into Warner, and immediately after him, Vivian. This would make no sense, as Stromwell's class had just started and Vivian would still be there. CHAR: Warner tells Elle he wants to be in the senate by the time he is 30. You have to be at least 30 to be a senator, so to be one "by the time you're 30" would be impossible. Fact errors: Elle says she lives in Bel Air across the street from Aaron Spelling. Aaron Spelling's mansion is in the Holmbly Hills section of Beverly Hills, not Bel Air. Fact errors: After Chutney admits her guilt on the stand, the judge dismisses the case against Brooke and orders Chutney to be taken into custody. In reality, only the prosecution can choose to drop the case. If they decline to do so, Chutney's confession would become an issue of fact for the jury, and they would choose either to believe it and acquit, or disregard it during deliberations. |
Quotes

Elle: And last week I saw Cameron Diaz at Fred Segal, and I talked her out of buying this truly heinous angora sweater. Whoever said orange was the new pink was seriously disturbed. Elle: The rules of hair care are simple and finite. Any Cosmo girl would have known. 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. Vivian: Nice outfit. Elle: Oh, I like your outfit too, except when I dress up as a frigid bitch, I try not to look so constipated. Elle: Hi. I'm Elle Woods and this is Bruiser Woods. We're both Gemini vegetarians. Boutique Saleswoman: There's nothing I love better than a dumb blonde with Daddy's plastic. Elle: I'm reading about the LSAT's Serena: My cousin had that once. Apparently you get a really bad rash on your... Elle: I don't need back-ups. I'm going to Harvard. C.U.L.A. Advisor: Well then, you'll need excellent recommendations from your professors. Elle: Okay. C.U.L.A. Advisor: And a heck of an admissions essay. Elle: Right. C.U.L.A. Advisor: And at least a 175 on your LSATs. Elle: I once had to judge a tighty-whitey contest for Lambda Kappa Pi. Trust me, I can handle anything. Elle's Mother: Honey, you were First Runner-Up at the "Miss Hawaiian Tropics" contest. Why are you going to throw that all away? Elle: Going to Harvard is the only way I'm going to get the love of my life back. Elle's Father: Oh, sweetheart, you don't need law school. Law school is for people who are boring and ugly and serious. And you, button, are none of those things. Brooke: You know a Delta Nu would never sleep with a man who wears a thong. Elle: Never! Brooke: I just liked to watch him change the filter. Warner Huntington III: If I want to be a Senator, I need to marry a Jackie, not a Marilyn. Elle: Did you see him? He's probably still scratching his head. Paulette: Yeah, which must be a nice vacation for his balls. Elle: I feel comfortable using legal jargon in everyday life. [someone whistles at her] I object. Emmett: I can't believe you just called me a butthead. I don't think anybody has called me a butthead since the 9th grade. Elle: Maybe not to your face. Elle: Excuse me. [turns around and slaps David] Why didn't you call me? We spent a beautiful night together and I haven't heard from you since. David: [pause] I'm sorry? Elle: Sorry for what? For breaking my heart, or for giving me the greatest pleasure I've ever known and just taking it away? David: Both? Elle: Well, forget it. I've spent too much time crying over you. Girl: [after Elle has walked off] So, when did you wanna go out? Elle: Uh. I'm sorry. I just hallucinated. Elle: Oh Warner, do you remember when we spent those four amazing hours in the hot tub together after winter formal? Warner Huntington III: Uhh, ye... no Elle: Well this is so much better than that. Excuse me, I have some shopping to do. Warner Huntington III: Pooh bear, just get in the car. Elle: No. [starts walking away, sniffling] Warner Huntington III: You're gonna ruin your shoes. Elle: Okay. [gets in car] Professor Callahan: Do you think she woke up one morning and said: I think I'll go to law school today. Warner Huntington III: You got into Harvard Law? Elle: What? Like, it's hard? Paulette: Is she as pretty as you? Elle: She could use some mascara and some serious highlights, but she's not completely unfortunate looking. Elle: Because I'm not a Vanderbilt, suddenly I'm white trash? I grew up in Bel Air, Warner. Across the street from Aaron Spelling. I think most people would agree that's a lot better than some stinky old Vanderbilt. Elle: You're breaking up with me because I'm too... blonde? Warner Huntington III: Well, no. That's not entirely true... Elle: Then what? My boobs are too big? Paulette: So what's a girl to do? He's a guy who followed his pecker to greener pastures. I'm a middle aged, high school drop out with stretch marks and a fat ass. Elle: This is what I need to become. Old Lady at Manicurist: What? Practically deformed? Elle: No, a law student. Enrique Salvatore: Don't stomp your little last season Prada shoes at me, honey. Elle: These aren't last season! [looks down, gasps, runs back into court room] Elle: He's gay! Enrique is gay! Elle: Isn't it the first cardinal rule of perm maintenance that you are forbidded to wet your hair for at least 24 hours after getting a perm at the risk of deactivating the ammonium thioglycolate? Elle: [Elle is cross-examining Chutney Windham] Ms. Windham, what had you done earlier that day? Chutney Windham: I got up. Got a latte. Went to the gym. Got a perm and came home. Elle: Where you got in the shower? The Honorable Marina R. Bickford: I believe the witness has made it clear that she was in the shower. [Courtroom audience laughs] Elle: Yes, your Honor. Elle: [a sudden brainstorm comes over Elle] Ms. Windham, had you ever gotten a perm before? Chutney Windham: Yes. Chutney Windham: Two a year since I was 12. You do the math. Elle: You know, a girl in my sorority, Tracy Marcinco got a perm once. We all tried to talk her out of it. Curls weren't a good look for her. She didn't have your bone structure, but thankfully that same day she entered the Pheta Delta Phi wet t-shirt contest where she was completely hosed to down from head to toe... DA Joyce Rafferty: Objection, why is this relevant? Elle: I have a point, I promise. The Honorable Marina R. Bickford: Then make it. Elle: Chutney, why is it Tracy Marcinco's curls were ruined when she got hosed down? Chutney Windham: Because they got wet. Elle: Exactly. Because isn't the first cardinal rule of perm maintenance that you're forbidden to wet your hair for at least 24 hours after getting a perm at the risk of deactivating the immonium thygocolate? Chutney Windham: Yes. Elle: And wouldn't somebody who had, say, 30 perms before in their life be well aware of this rule, and if in fact you weren't washing your hair as I suspect you weren't because your curls are still intact, wouldn't you have heard the gunshot, and if in fact you had heard the gunshot Brooke Windham wouldn't have had time to hide the gun before you got downstairs. Which means you would have had to found Brooke Windham with a gun in her hand to make your story plausible, isn't that right? Chutney Windham: She's my age! Did she tell you that? How would you feel if your father married someone who was your age? Elle: You, however, Chutney had time to hide the gun after you shot your father. Chutney Windham: [Chutney is in tears] I didn't mean to shoot him! [points at Brooke] I thought it was YOU walking through the door! [Courtroom audience gasps] Elle: Oh my God. The Honorable Marina R. Bickford: Oh my God. Brooke: Oh my God. The Honorable Marina R. Bickford: Balliff, take the witness into custody, where she will be charged for the murder of Joseph Windham. Case dismissed. Mrs. Windham, you're free to go. Brooke: Thank you, your honor. Professor Stromwell: If you're going to let one stupid prick ruin your life... you're not the girl I thought you were. Professor Callahan: Let the blood bath begin. Elle: Bend and snap. Maurice: Oh, my God, the bend and snap works every time! [Elle is presiding at her sorority meeting] Elle: It has come to my attention that the maintenance staff is switching our toilet paper from Charmin... to generic. All those opposed to chafing, please say "Aye". Entire Sorority Group: Aye. Warner Huntington III: How was your first class? Elle: Oh, it was okay, except for this horrible preppy girl who tried to make me look bad in front of the professor, but no biggie. Emmett: Did you take Mrs. Windham on a date? Enrique Salvatore: Yes. Emmett: Where? Enrique Salvatore: A restaurant in concord, where no one could recognize us. Emmett: How long have you been sleeping with Mrs. Windham? Enrique Salvatore: Three months. Emmett: And your boyfriend's name is... Enrique Salvatore: Chuck. Emmett: Right. [Everyone gasps/laughs] Enrique Salvatore: Pardon me, pardon me. I thought you said friend; Chuck is just a friend. Chuck: YOU BITCH. Elle: All people see when they look at me is blonde hair and big boobs. Elle: [to Emmett]So, if you don't know an answer they're just gonna kick you out. Emmett: So you have Stromwell, huh? Elle: Yes. Did she do that to you too? Emmett: No, but she did make me cry once... not in class I waited until I got back to my room, but yeah she'll kick you right in the balls, or wherever. Elle: Don't ask. Emmett: Wasn't gonna. Margot: Here, you're gonna need this. Elle: Your scrunchie? Margot: My LUCKY scrunchie. It helped me pass Spanish. Serena: You passed Spanish because you gave Professor Montoya a lap dance after the final. Margot: Yeah... Luckily! [sees Elle in her Bunny costume] Warner Huntington III: Hey well don't you look like a walking felony. Elle: Thanks, you're so sweet. Elle: Warner, what kind of shoes are these? Warner Huntington III: Umm... black ones. Serena: Oh, look, there's Elle! Serena: Elle, we came to see your trial and look! There's like a judge and everything... and jury people. Margot: VOTE FOR ELLE! The Honorable Marina R. Bickford: Ladies, take a seat! Paulette: [Elle is in tears at the salon after she finds out Warner dumped her for her new rival, Vivian] So what's this Vivian got that you don't have? Three tits? Elle: Curls weren't a good look for her. She didn't have your bone structure. Elle: That's great, Paulette. Is that the only interaction you two have ever had? Paulette: No! Sometimes I say "okay" instead of "fine." Warner Huntington III: Excuse me, I'm sorry... are you here to see me? Elle: No, silly. I go here! Elle: Is that low-viscosity rayon? With a half-loop top stitching on the hem? Boutique Saleswoman: Of course. It's one of a kind. Elle: It's impossible to use a half-loop stitching on low-viscosity rayon. It would snag the fabric. And you didn't just get it in - I saw it in the June Vogue a year ago. So if you're trying to sell it to me for full price, you've picked the wrong girl. Elle: [from deleted scene] She told me I look like Britney Spears! Why would she say that if she doesn't like me? Elle: I promised her, and I can't break the bonds of sisterhood. Professor Callahan: Screw sisterhood! This is a murder investigation! Not some scandal at the sorority house! Paulette: [Paulette gets nervous talking to the UPS man and spills nail solution all over the table] Geez! Could I be any more goddamn spastic? Elle: For that matter, any masturbatory emissions, where the sperm is clearly not seeking an egg, could be termed reckless abandonment. Professor Callahan: You've just won your case. Brooke: Are you one of my lawyers? Elle: Sort of. Brooke: Well thank God one of you has a brain. Brooke: I would rather go to jail than lose my reputation. Brooke: I was getting... [whispers] liposuction. Elle: What? Brooke: [whispers a little louder] Liposuction. Elle: What? Brooke: LIPOSUCTION! Elle: [gasps] NO! Brooke: Yes! I know I'm a fraud, but its not like normal women could have this ass! Elle: Your secret's safe with me. Elle: [after Warner asks her out after the trial] But if I'm going to be a partner in a law firm by the time I'm 30, I need a boyfriend who's not such a complete bonehead. Paulette: [to her ex-husband] I'm takin' the dog... DUMBASS! Elle: No more boring suits or pantyhose, I'm trying to be somebody I'm not. Elle: Here it is! Professor Callahan: It's pink... Elle: Oh! And it's scented! I think it gives it a little something extra, don't you think? Ok, well, see you next class! Vivian: You know, I'm still shocked that you didn't give Callahan the alibi. Elle: It wasn't my alibi to tell. Vivian: I know, I thought that was very... classy of you. Elle: [on video essay]... and that's why you should vote for me. Elle Woods: future lawyer for the class of 2004. Admissions Guy: She does have a 4.0 from CULA and she got a 179 on LSATs. Head of Admissions: Fashion major? Admissions Guy: Well sir we've never had one before and aren't we always looking for diversity? Admissions Guy: Her list of extra-curricular activities is impressive. Head of Admissions: She was in a Ricky Martin video. Admissions Guy: Clearly, she's interested in music. Head of Admissions: She also designed a line of faux-fur panties for her sorority's charity project. Admissions Guy: Uh huh, she's a friend to the animals as well as a philanthropist. Head of Admissions: Elle Woods. [pause] Head of Admissions: Welcome to Harvard. Professor Callahan: Smell this. Emmett: What is it? Professor Callahan: Her resume. Emmett: [sniffs the pink paper] Smells good. |
