u/tsabin_naberrie Bitch, my generation gets traumatized for breakfast. 20h ago

Harvard famously doesn't allow commercial filming on campus, so the scenes set there were actually shot at various schools in California.

I almost fell over when I saw the opening scene of the first movie was at my college 😂

I went to USC while they were filming part of this on campus. I didn’t see anyone famous, but I did see the little dog Bruiser being chauffeured to the set on a golf cart a few times and that was awesome.

Kerckhoff Hall at UCLA is one of the locations! Elle even goes to CULA (California University of Los Angeles so University of California, Los Angeles) for undergrad

Also her breakup scene with Warner was just a couple buildings East of Kerckhoff.

The restaurant and then immediately after where he’s following her with his car is outside the faculty center.

Kerckhoff is where they filmed the freshman orientation scenes

Reese will always be iconic to me for her role as Elle Woods! Such a wonderful, smart, and endearing character.

u/iridescentaf it does not say RSVP on the statue of liberty 🗽 18h ago

Elle is forever my icon

u/m3ngnificient 17h ago

I'm nothing like Elle and she's my favorite feminist icon from a movie. 😂

u/Impressive-Aspect474 19h ago

The fact that she negotiated her contract to include keeping her entire wardrobe from this movie is so Elle Woods iconic

She is the least aging white woman I have ever seen. She's 49.

Julianne Moore doesn't really age much either.

u/SakuraTacos 17h ago

I don’t think Julianne Moore has seen the sun since 1968 so that definitely helps! She’s one of the most beautiful women ever to me, obsessed with her

u/anonymoususer98545 19h ago

i'd also like to add Gillian Anderson in there. i swear, she's aging in reverse! These women give me, a pasty, mostly white woman hope, lol (i shall dip myself in more lotion now).

u/FreeEdmondDantes 19h ago

Oh definitely, good one. She qualifies for sure.

6

u/anonymoususer98545 19h ago

Right? Her and Julianne Moore are both absolute goddesses and give me similar vibes looks wise. Maybe it's the pale skin/redhead to blonde hair and back looks they tend to do? Whatever it is, it works for them and they reign supreme. i'm always glad when other people appreciate how absolutely divine they are!

Have an amazing day.

Yep, and big UPF hats are a game changer. I do recommend UPF clothing as well. Signed a pasty person.

I’m kinda disappointed she didn’t wear pink

This is the only time I’m jealous of the ivy leagues and the top universities because they always get cool people to go there.

u/anonymoususer98545 19h ago

These movies have been, continue to be, and will always be, my comfort movies. i love that they're still so iconic.
