Stuffing

Legally Blonde 2

Well, I thought this would be a fluff film and in some ways it was as Elle herself is a bit over the top on the fashion/mood swing thing, but in another way it is a movie that seems to be a critism of how the American political system works. So there you go- American political commentary wrapped in fluff.
There are some things I needed to hear in the movie though (not that I got them directly from the movie- they were more inspired by the movie.

1. When people oppose you, don't take it personal. With Elle she got all these mood swings when things didn't go her way. But things won't always go your way in life and not everyone will agree with you. That's just the way it goes, don't take it personal.

2. Never take second best. In the movie Elle was offered a buyout if she didn't push her bill and it sounded real nice, but it wasn't what she was called to do. Don't give up the dream. Don't take less than you deserve.

3. When you know what's right, attack head on, your way. Be yourself and stand for what you believe in. Sometimes doing it your way may seem odd to others. Elle realized she couldn't make ground doing it the 'washington' way, but she made ground by reaching peoples hearts (and some other odd ways).

Why do things I need to hear these days come wrapped in fluff films?
