"I am so late to the party but… Legally Blonde
“OMG, a dumb blonde sorority girl studied for the LSAT for a summer and aces it? Bullsh#t!”
No. No, the point is that Elle Woods was never a “dumb blonde.” She was always brilliant. Literally the first scene is her interrogating the salesperson and catching them in a lie because she was observant and smart.
Rather, Elle was pigeonholed by the circumstances of her looks and her privileged upbringing to pursue a vapid life. While inspired by the wrong reasons, it results in her breaking the mold she was confined in so that she is able to reach her full potential."
