I found myself grateful to be reviewing the edited version of this movie. Let me assure you that all the listed elements have been nuked out of this edited rendition. This young lady, Elle Woods, embodies the freshness, chutzpah, and healthy self-esteem people love to see in 20 something’s. She lets nasty barbs from her female Harvard classmates roll off her back, she walks in confidence while her recent wimpy boyfriend nuzzles up to his new fiancé, as she takes the bull by the horns and buckles down in her classes, after being sent out of class on the first day, not knowing there was an assignment. Elle’s heart, and not her drop-dead good looks are what eminently stand out in this edited version. Elle befriends her manicurist, while embracing her in friendship and, by example, leading her out of a destructive relationship. When Elle graduates from Harvard Law School, it’s her heart and the many and varied ways that she has touched so many peoples lives that shines. I recommend this edited version, for I believe it’ll touch your heart, too.
