I am definitly a sucker for a good romantic comedy. This one centers on Reese Witherspoon starring as Melanie Carmichael or Smooter depending on what time in the movie we focus on. :) She is a hot fashion designer in New York prepping for her first big show. When her fiancee (Patrick Dempsey) proposes to her later that night, it seems like the best day ever. That is...until she realizes she needs to go back home and finalize her divorce with her husband (the gorgeous Josh Lucas).
As she is ashamed of her home, her parents, and her friends, she starts to realize she isnt any better than any of them. She must come to terms with what she really wants instead of her hopes for a better life and the direction in which her mother has always pushed her.
I am a sucker for a happy ending so I could definitly appreciate it. |
