Timothee it's not a movie miscommunication. My mother always blamed the pretty girls for situations like that. Vivian falls back to her internaIized misogyny. blaming the pretty girl and not the powerful man was big in the 90s and 2000s
General knowledge of hair care has come a long way since Legally Blonde came out - maybe it's because of this movie that now nearly everyone knows that you can't get your hair wet after getting a perm.
@@agenttheater5I think it’s more that so many women (and men as well) get either perms or straightening treatments where you can’t wet your hair so it’s just been common knowledge for a while now.
To prepare for her role as Elle Woods, Reese Witherspoon spent two weeks studying the behavior of sorority girls, as she did not wish to portray a stereotypical airhead sorority image. She states on the DVD commentary that they were all very kind and polite, and she enjoyed her time with them. She also observed women shopping from the café at Neiman Marcus, and attended law school for a day.
If it is ok, I just want to give a shout out to Emmett because he was the only character, besides Elle’s friends that saw her for who she was. From their first meeting, Emmett saw her kindness, compassion, and intelligence. He was willing to give her advice and just help out while everyone prejudged her. On Legal Eagle, the lawyer said that scene on the first day would not happen. Many schools give you some leeway with assignments because you are just getting your books and access to the school’s website.
I wasn't kicked out of the class but I had the same thing happen to me. We apparently had assigned work that needed to be done before the 1st day of class and I was definitely targeted because I didn't realize/ didn't have it done. It was hidden in a bunch of packets we got and I didn't finish reading them because I got enrolled in the college last minute.
4:25 Which is also insulting to both Jackie and Marilyn. Both were stylish, well-read women who's iconic looks and fashion is still recognised today, and who both went through the ringer and deserve to be respected instead of put into categories like 'classy debutant wife to have on your arm in public even if you cheat on her' or 'dumb sexy blonde you cheat on your wife with'.
@@a.g.demada5263 He's referring to US President John F. Kennedy's wife Jacqueline Lee Bouvier Kennedy (Onassis was added when she married the second time), nicknamed 'Jackie', a well read debutante and socialite from New York with a Bachelor in French Literature who was a brunette and was known for being fashionable, stylish, elegant and classy (not that I'd call Vivian's behaviour for most of the movie 'classy' though she's clearly upper class), and one of his mistresses Hollywood actress Marilyn Monroe born Norma Jeane Mortensen (Kennedy cheated on Jackie several times throughout their marriage but his affair with Marilyn is the most famous out of them all, though apparently he and Jackie had become a lot closer in months leading up to his assassination) the famous blonde sex-bomb movie star iconic for her hair and her voice, viewed and cast as a 'dumb blonde' though behind the camera she actually a very well read woman and was much smarter than a lot of people gave her credit for, but she also suffered from mood disorders and addictions and (though you'd never guess it when you watch her) was a very unhappy woman, she died of an overdose when she was 36. Basically Warner is saying saying that he needs to marry a socialite brunette who comes from the 'right' family and went to the 'right' school and who'll look good on his arm in the newspaper rather than a blonde bombshell who's too 'stupid' to be taken anywhere in public and who's only there for men like him to sleep with. All in all he's being insulting to both Jackie and Marilyn, limiting them to their images rather than their actual personalities. Which means he's also limiting both Elle and Vivian to their appearance as well.
12:23 the real brilliance of the way she says this doesn't truly pay off until later, when we find out he only got in because he pulled some strings with his dad, and SHE got in on her own merits.
Something that a lot of people miss: when Warner asks about the costume, Elle pointedly does not throw Vivian under the bus, and just says she did it on her own. It's Vivian fault and she's Warners fiance, but she STILL didn't tell on her.
A 180 is a top score for the LSAT'S so Elle getting a 179 was almost perfect. She's really smart, but since she's blonde everyone thinks she's stupid. Love when you have compilations with other people.
There's a theory that Elle was Warner's side chick. It took him so little time to get engaged to Vivian, it's very possible he had been seeing Vivian while he was dating Elle. On her first day when she ran into Warner, he was surprised she got in, and she said, "what, like it's hard?" - so much funnier when you realize Warner was waitlisted and needed his dad to call in a favor for him to get in. Also, it was everyone's first day, and college professors expect you to have gone online, read the syllabus, and completed any assignments or reading before class, even on the first day. I'm not saying she should've been kicked out of the class, but assigning reading before the first day is a very normal thing that a lot of professors do, even in community college, let alone graduate school.
That's what I was thinking. Cause if I'm not wrong the timespan between him dumping Elle and the first semester of Law school starting is only relatively a few months. How would he have known Vivian so quickly unless they knew each other prior to school.
Ellie is a great role model she's smart she's beautiful and she's very sweet and nice even when people were treating her badly she never stooped through their level
14:23 No no no, my friend, that is the brilliance of this scene. He was seeing them both AT THE SAME TIME! That's why he said, "I need a Jackie, not a Marilyn." Vivian was the girlfriend, Elle was the "mistress".
@@a.g.demada5263 Let me help you out then: He was referring to Jackie O, JFKs wife, and Marilyn Monroe, who he was having an affair with. Warner considered Marilyn to be a dumb blonde, but Elle did not, hence the confusion when she said, "So I'm too...blonde?"
'Pooh Bear' was mostly known as a 'bear of very little brain' and keep in mind Warner called Vivian that too, not just Elle. Warner can't become a senator by the time he's 30,(he's not good with research)though he did flunk his LSATS and had to have his dad pull some strings. Finally how Marilyn Monroe was on camera was just a persona, she was actually an intelligent woman.
Check out the musical. It's great. Vivian's character arc is so good. David, the guy that answered the question about Aristotle, is the son of Tony Perkins, from "Psycho".
You’re reacting to an absolute classic. Reese Witherspoon herself didn’t know she was making history. Also, petition to see Timothée expand his pink wardrobe. We need iconic pink outfits on this channel.
Yup, he's great & I'm sad he got cut from the musical. Reminder that tho he didn't get an internship & had no context, he helped research the code allowing Elle to represent Brooke & shows up for the trial.
13:19 The point is you cannot afford to second guess yourself in the courtroom, because that results in you losing your case for your client. Or, think of it like this: He was right, but he didn't know that. If you're going to be a lawyer, you NEED to know that.
Love this movie!! In the musical version, Vivian supports Elle’s side when she sees Callahan hit on her. And they used the “bend and snap” to figure out if that witness is gay. I hope Clariss shows you Devil Wears Prada! That’s also an amazing movie ✨
A thought occurred to me that Elle Woods, Mark Zuckerberg and the Winklevoss twins could have been at Harvard at the same time. A fan made Legally Blonde-The Social Network mashup might be fun. Lol
Yep. You have to react to "The Devil Wears Prada". You won't regret it. I enjoyed your reaction to "Legally Blonde" and look forward to seeing more of your reaction videos.
It's so good to see another reaction collaboration between Timothee and Clariss, especially with one of my classic favorites, Legally Blonde! I really enjoy watching Reese Witherspoon just killing it as Elle Woods, I don't think she even knew at the time how iconic her role would become! I'm glad she got great character development throughout the movie, and the whole cast did so well with their roles, and of course the David Kidney fellow should not be underestimated. I don't know what I should call this movie because it doesn't feel like a traditional romantic comedy but I love it nonetheless. What I recommend for you both next is 13 Going on 30, with Jennifer Garner and Mark Ruffalo, before he became the MCU's Hulk later
I've heard the argument recently that THIS should have been the model for the "girlboss" archetype instead of the reskinned patriarchal shill it turned into. Said argument is correct.
So many memories of my childhood this was released 4 years before I was born but I would always watch the dvd with my mom I’m 17 now and as a guy I watch more Marvel and action films but this is always be the one I watch with my mom
14:58 well just a little reminder that just like FF his kids Sophia and Roman also became known directors. Roman is mostly known as a writer (especially when working with Wes Anderson) but you might recognize some of the artists who hired him to direct music videos. The movie made it intentionally ambiguous as to which of the family members, if any, were meant here.
The graduation scene was filmed several months after they finished filming. The testing audience wasn't satisfied with the original ending, so they filmed the graduation scene. That scene was actually filmed in England because Reese Witherspoon was filming another movie over there.
@@needles1987 I have to admit they were right because that wasn't enough except if they writed text saying what happened to the characters like in the history movies when it says what happend to the real person after the events of the movie
Elle Woods is a Queer Icon. I don’t even know how to explain it. You either get the vibe or you don’t get the vibe. Her pink outfits gave us life. Also, great Halloween Costume.
Hey, Tim! Been watching you for a while, got introduced to Clariss through you and now I'm subbed to you both! Great movie, I love how you both get so into the films you watch
What's interesting about Massachusetts is that not only is it old money but it's also a mix of brainy ax and jocks and equal balance of both but Boston itself is a very intellectual city. There are a lot of pretentious snobs there though and I am from Massachusetts near the Boston area. But deep down they are like Vivian. But you got a lot of Warners there too
If you want another fun lawyer movie, you have to check out “My Cousin Vinny.” it's a legal comedy starring Joe Pesci from “Home Alone.” Marisa Tomei from the newer spider-man and Ralph Macchio from “ The Karate Kid.” It's a great film, and I think you would really enjoy it.
I absolutely love this movie! This one and White Chicks always make me laugh so much. Also, Happy Halloween, everyone! I hope you have a perfectly ooky spooky night! ^-^
Thanks, Timothée! Thanks, Clariss! 🌸 I enjoyed this... I also like the Broadway musical based on this flick. #TimotheeReacts #RobertLuketic #LegallyBlonde
Thus was my first time on your channel great reaction 😄...And you should REALLY do Devil Wears Prada ... you will love the dry and witty humor plus tons of good looking people 😄
1:38 A Really Weird thing is that I first heard this song in a Barbie movie and I didn’t know that song was a real song. 2:16 Reese Witherspoon is a really good actress. I love how this movie crushed The dumb, Ditzy Blonde Archetype. I was born a Platinum Blonde and Yet I’m not the best at book smarts but I know A thing or Two about Street Smarts. 1:43 I love mean girls.
Yaaay, love this movie!!! 😍😍😍😍 I find it very ironic how those girls wanted to go out with him after hearing what an a-hole he was about ghosting Elle 😆 (know it was fake, but still)
Je me rappelle que la première fois que je l'ai vu, ma mère avait été la seule à deviner à cause de la permanente car elle en faisait quand elle était jeune (je précise que je suis une malgache adoptée). D'habitude, je n'aime pas quand le titre d'un film est changé dans la VF mais pour celui-ci, le titre français est " La revanche d'une blonde " et je trouve que ça sonne bien
One of my many favourite quotes: “Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don’t shoot their husbands. They just don’t.” The logic is FLAWLESS.
I still remember renting this when it first came out. Always been one of my faves, even as a brunette. 😅 Elle is awesome and Bruiser is adorable. Btw the sequel is cute too! 💕
Everyone thinks it's a dumb moment when Elle didn't tell Callahan Brooke's alibi, but she's actually right. If they can't create a reasonable doubt without that alibi, they're not very good lawyers. The burden of proof in a murder trial is on the prosecution. They have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you and nobody else committed the crime. All you need to do as a defense lawyer is to create doubt in the prosecution's case. An alibi is ideal, but it's the easiest way. There are other ways they can do this. Especially since many defendants don't even have alibis, like if they're home alone.
Thank you for this icon! Besides the sequel, I must recommend you check out the full Broadway musical; you can find it on UA-cam. If you want more Reese Witherspoon, I highly recommend Sweet Home Alabama, Four Christmases, and Penelope. For more early 2000s chick flicks, I must recommend The Princess Diaries 1-2, Ella Enchanted, Ever After, A Cinderella Story (Jennifer Coolidge is in this), and Never Been Kissed. 👩🏼🎓👛💋🛍🐕 📚🗒🖊💖🖤💛
Elle is smart, hard working, genuine and determined. people think she is none of these things cause she is pretty also blonde. For some reason lots of the time people think a person can only be one thing pretty or smart or strong or whatever. As a women when you are attractive people treat you different and expect less of you, this story teaches young girls not to let anyone put them in a box. you did it too btw she is pretty so she only knows about fashion? everyone does this but we have to learn to not put anyone in a box. Because when we treat people like we only expect them to excel at one certain thing they may feel like other people are limiting or defining for them what they are capable of being. she cares about the girly things you would make assumptions about but also that is just a small part of her, she is also kind, smart and caring. She commits to her dreams even when lots of people around her don't think she belongs and should act differently to fit the box they have put her in. She is unapologetically herself
LOL, Elle couldn't go visit someone in prison under a fake name. They make you sign in and go over your ID and usually get searched, etc. She also couldn't have brought Brooke all the stuff she brought in, either. I know, it's a movie, but still.
The original ending had it end after the trial, where Emmet kisses Elle, and it cuts to a year later where she and Vivian are suntanning on the beach. This was changed because they wanted a payoff with Warner, so they added the scene with Elle telling Warner no last minute.
Nice catch on the perm requirements. Now ya gotta react to the Legally Blonde Musical every time I watch the last season shoes I hear is he gay or European!
While the "He's gay!!" bit hasn't aged... the _most_ gracefully, you gotta remember that this movie originally came out in 2001. We've thankfully made huge strides in the portrayal of LGBT people in media since then, although it (of course) still has a little growing to do.
Hopefully it keeps getting better though because I feel a lot of the time they put in stereotypical LGBT characters in shows and movies that just annoys the shit out of me instead of having them actually be a character that just happens to be whatever they are and that it's not their entire personality
I’m gay and I have never been offended by any gay characters in any movie or show ever made. Every demographic has been stereotyped in movies. Men, women, different ethnicities. All of them. It’s just a movie and I hate how sensitive the world has gotten. I definitely appreciate that people are much more cognizant about bigotry and stereotypes but we have gone a little too far. Not saying this comment because I disagree with what your saying but to me, the “he’s gay” aged perfectly fine. There’s nothing wrong with simply stating that someone is gay if they happen to be. It’s no big deal.
@@user-qu4yn1fm4z Oh I'm not offended by it myself, I was talking about the two of them watching being a little 😬 about it. I'm not straight, either, and I just think it's funny. We've come a long way as far as characters in media ALSO not being straight as just a facet of their character rather that being the main or only thing about their character. There's still shallow tokenism and the "bury your gays" trope, but at least we're getting more depth than we used to. I'm still not _offended_ by it, though... just commenting on it as an observation. Edited to add it wasn't specifically the "He's gay!" line that I'm talking about, that's just what I used to refer to the scene. I think it's the portrayal of the dude himself that some people take issue with, although I do agree that I _personally_ don't take issue with it. It's just funny!

Yes, Devil Wears Prada! You could replace the fashion with any other competitive industry and it would still be a good story.

I've seen people call this a romantic comedy, but like you mentioned it doesn't really focus on the romance, it's more of a coming-of-age movie.
Selma Blair was absolutely brilliant in this movie. What a character graph without giving any spoilers. Do check out ‘The Sweetest Thing’.
You can tell Clariss really loved this movie 😂
The actor who played David Kidney is the son of Anthony Perkins, who starred in Psycho.
Luke Wilson as Emmett is such a lovely person to be with. He was absolutely iconic #Goals

This movie is all about women supporting women and I'm HERE for it!!
I've heard the argument recently that THIS should have been the model for the "girlboss" archetype instead of the reskinned patriarchal shill it turned into. Said argument is correct.
The Devil Wears Prada!

The musical based on this movie is pretty great too. I’ve been a production of it before and it was so fun.
Timothée NEEDS to watch ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ ASAP. CAN I JOIN IN ON THE REACTION?
I second that!
You should totally watch Legally Blonde: The Musical with Laura Bell Bundy as Elle Woods I highly recommend it’s a stage musical!!!
I could gush about how many things I love about this movie forever.
15:05 I think in this case, she meant Sofia Coppola.
35:13 Chutney aka Linda Cardellini was Velma in the 2000s version of ‘Scooby-Doo’ and also lovely performance in ‘Dead to Me’.
Also, she played the wife of Clint Barton (Hawkeye).
Every time I watch this movie now, I can't help but see the actor as anything other than Alaric Saltzman from the Vampire Diaries lol
Legally blonde is so iconic!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
If you want another fun lawyer movie, you have to check out “My Cousin Vinny.” it's a legal comedy starring Joe Pesci from “Home Alone.” Marisa Tomei from the newer spider-man and Ralph Macchio from “ The Karate Kid.” It's a great film, and I think you would really enjoy it.
“He looks like a turtle”
That’s an insult to turtles
PLEASE do legally blonde 2, such an EPIC sequel!!!!!!!!
I absolutely love this movie! This one and White Chicks always make me laugh so much.
Also, Happy Halloween, everyone! I hope you have a perfectly ooky spooky night! ^-^
This was another great reaction and I love the input that Clariss gives, she's great! Devil Wears Prada, Clariss has great taste!
Wish she had more output; she's fantastic.
The guy who plays David Kidney is the descendant of Tony Perkins of ‘Psycho’ (1960) fame.
Thanks, Timothée! Thanks, Clariss! 🌸 I enjoyed this... I also like the Broadway musical based on this flick. #TimotheeReacts #RobertLuketic #LegallyBlonde
Thus was my first time on your channel great reaction 😄...And you should REALLY do Devil Wears Prada ... you will love the dry and witty humor plus tons of good looking people 😄
Elle Woods was ahead of her time: She INVENTED the video essay in the 21st Century. #IObject
1:38 A Really Weird thing is that I first heard this song in a Barbie movie and I didn’t know that song was a real song. 2:16 Reese Witherspoon is a really good actress. I love how this movie crushed The dumb, Ditzy Blonde Archetype. I was born a Platinum Blonde and Yet I’m not the best at book smarts but I know A thing or Two about Street Smarts. 1:43 I love mean girls.
Her: He looks like a total #!%@ tool.
Me: Yo, but it’s Alaric!
I love this movie. Definitely a 10/10 film that Reese Witherspoon has been in. Also Happy Halloween Tim.
Yaaay, love this movie!!! 😍😍😍😍 I find it very ironic how those girls wanted to go out with him after hearing what an a-hole he was about ghosting Elle 😆 (know it was fake, but still)
Eh; if they're just into sex and not a relationship, I can buy it.
26:15-26:18 OMG HE IS!? I NEVER KNEW THAT!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯
Je me rappelle que la première fois que je l'ai vu, ma mère avait été la seule à deviner à cause de la permanente car elle en faisait quand elle était jeune (je précise que je suis une malgache adoptée).
D'habitude, je n'aime pas quand le titre d'un film est changé dans la VF mais pour celui-ci, le titre français est " La revanche d'une blonde " et je trouve que ça sonne bien
One of my many favourite quotes: “Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don’t shoot their husbands. They just don’t.”
The logic is FLAWLESS.
Always made sense to me 🤷♀️ lol
They _could_ have still done so accidentally. I'll buy a lack of motivation for murder.
5:38 Bad choice, but would you want to walk home in heels??
I still remember renting this when it first came out. Always been one of my faves, even as a brunette. 😅 Elle is awesome and Bruiser is adorable. Btw the sequel is cute too! 💕
11:31 that was a Josie and the Pussycats reference!
It’s important to note the only other girl student that Callahan selected was also a traditionally attractive woman
Everyone thinks it's a dumb moment when Elle didn't tell Callahan Brooke's alibi, but she's actually right. If they can't create a reasonable doubt without that alibi, they're not very good lawyers. The burden of proof in a murder trial is on the prosecution. They have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you and nobody else committed the crime. All you need to do as a defense lawyer is to create doubt in the prosecution's case. An alibi is ideal, but it's the easiest way. There are other ways they can do this. Especially since many defendants don't even have alibis, like if they're home alone.
15:01 RECENT EMMY WINNER Jennifer Coolidge enters the chat.
P.S. The love story between Paulette and UPS Guy is so cheesy but believable.
This is a classic. Reese was great. Please do the Devil Wears Prada!
I think The intern is another good movie You could really enjoy
OMG! My dad literally just showed me a scene from the movie yesterday! The courtroom scene actually. And I loved it.
Nice commentary. 👍🏼 Would Love to ser you do Devil Wests Prada
You think the movie is fun, I watched the musical on UA-cam, the songs will get stuck in your head! So good!
Best part ''You bitch!''
Thank you for this icon! Besides the sequel, I must recommend you check out the full Broadway musical; you can find it on UA-cam. If you want more Reese Witherspoon, I highly recommend Sweet Home Alabama, Four Christmases, and Penelope. For more early 2000s chick flicks, I must recommend The Princess Diaries 1-2, Ella Enchanted, Ever After, A Cinderella Story (Jennifer Coolidge is in this), and Never Been Kissed.

How about he also watches Legally Blonde musical? The full thing in professional shot is on youtube too
No one knows that Norman Bates son is in this movie.
Devil wears Prada!
Elle is smart, hard working, genuine and determined. people think she is none of these things cause she is pretty also blonde. For some reason lots of the time people think a person can only be one thing pretty or smart or strong or whatever. As a women when you are attractive people treat you different and expect less of you, this story teaches young girls not to let anyone put them in a box. you did it too btw she is pretty so she only knows about fashion? everyone does this but we have to learn to not put anyone in a box. Because when we treat people like we only expect them to excel at one certain thing they may feel like other people are limiting or defining for them what they are capable of being. she cares about the girly things you would make assumptions about but also that is just a small part of her, she is also kind, smart and caring. She commits to her dreams even when lots of people around her don't think she belongs and should act differently to fit the box they have put her in. She is unapologetically herself
I want to be ‘Hands over scented pink résumé without batting an eyelid’ level of iconic.
LOL, Elle couldn't go visit someone in prison under a fake name. They make you sign in and go over your ID and usually get searched, etc. She also couldn't have brought Brooke all the stuff she brought in, either. I know, it's a movie, but still.
You guys have got to watch 10 Things I Hate About You or A Cinderella Story together!!!!!
um HAPPY HALLOWEEN ? 🎃
The original ending had it end after the trial, where Emmet kisses Elle, and it cuts to a year later where she and Vivian are suntanning on the beach.
This was changed because they wanted a payoff with Warner, so they added the scene with Elle telling Warner no last minute.
Devil Wears Prada!
I love this movie. You should try the musical--the MTV film of it is on YT somewhere. It's even better.
Nice catch on the perm requirements. Now ya gotta react to the Legally Blonde Musical every time I watch the last season shoes I hear is he gay or European!
While the "He's gay!!" bit hasn't aged... the _most_ gracefully, you gotta remember that this movie originally came out in 2001. We've thankfully made huge strides in the portrayal of LGBT people in media since then, although it (of course) still has a little growing to do.
Hopefully it keeps getting better though because I feel a lot of the time they put in stereotypical LGBT characters in shows and movies that just annoys the shit out of me instead of having them actually be a character that just happens to be whatever they are and that it's not their entire personality
I’m gay and I have never been offended by any gay characters in any movie or show ever made. Every demographic has been stereotyped in movies. Men, women, different ethnicities. All of them. It’s just a movie and I hate how sensitive the world has gotten. I definitely appreciate that people are much more cognizant about bigotry and stereotypes but we have gone a little too far. Not saying this comment because I disagree with what your saying but to me, the “he’s gay” aged perfectly fine. There’s nothing wrong with simply stating that someone is gay if they happen to be. It’s no big deal.
@@user-qu4yn1fm4z Oh I'm not offended by it myself, I was talking about the two of them watching being a little 😬 about it. I'm not straight, either, and I just think it's funny.
We've come a long way as far as characters in media ALSO not being straight as just a facet of their character rather that being the main or only thing about their character. There's still shallow tokenism and the "bury your gays" trope, but at least we're getting more depth than we used to. I'm still not _offended_ by it, though... just commenting on it as an observation.
Edited to add it wasn't specifically the "He's gay!" line that I'm talking about, that's just what I used to refer to the scene. I think it's the portrayal of the dude himself that some people take issue with, although I do agree that I _personally_ don't take issue with it. It's just funny!
0:49 No. For _that,_ you need to watch the inferior-in-every-way direct-to-video "sequel", Legally BlondeS.
Please do legally blonde 2 its a really great movie also
I love Clariss and Tim’s reactions
Thanks!
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes is a solid movie with a similar message about judging women based on how they look.
It's the movie with Marilyn Monroe, isn't it ?
@@a.g.demada5263 Yeah
Oh man this movie nostalgic feeling
6:13 2 little fun facts:
1. That was a scene from General Hospital
2. He WAS lying!
18:21 I do that for people at the library sometimes.
DEVIL WEARS PRADA
