Legally Blonde12A

Directed by Robert Luketic | USA | 2001 | 1h 36m | Starring Reese Witherspoon, Luke Wilson, Selma Blair, Matthew Davis, Jennifer Coolidge

When Elle Woods gets dumped by her preppy boyfriend – who’s decided a future senator needs a “serious” girlfriend – she does what any self-respecting sorority queen would do: she gets into Harvard Law School. To win him back, obviously. Except once she’s there, something unexpected happens: she’s actually brilliant at this. Warm, whip-smart, and endlessly quotable, Legally Blonde is the ultimate feel-good film about defying every assumption people make about you, and looking fabulous while you do it.

Our screening on Sunday 28th June will be introduced by award winning comedian Anna George.
