Together with Elle Woods in the Legally Blonde movies Reese Witherspoon got her career role in Sweet Home Alabama, This one must have been real popular
in the red states.
Witherspoon is a highly successful and up and coming close designer in New York and she's just gotten rather publicly engaged to Patrick Dempsey whose character is no doubt based on JFK, Jr. It's a dream come true, but there's one small hitch in the design. Seems like she never quite got around to divorcing her good old boy husband from her hometown.
So it's back to Alabama to get Josh Lucas to sign the decree. But he's not willing at least not yet. And while she's now Ms. New York sophisticate it doesn't take long for Witherspoon let's the Alabama flow in her.
This is a most old fashioned type of film and I'm not surprised that Buena Vista the distribution arm of Walt Disney films brought this one out. Witherspoon is winning and wonderful and Alabama has it's best foot forward in this film.
Candice Bergen is in this film as Dempsey's mother who is the Mayor of New York and she's clearly modeled on a most unflattering portrait of Hillary Clinton. She should have gotten some Oscar recognition for her work here.
A nice score of country music is part of the soundtrack. Sweet Home Alabama is a winner for Reese Witherspoon and the audience.
