Taking home a paycheck that nearly rivals the budget of the first film, Reese Witherspoon reprises the role of Elle Woods in this sequel to 2001's surprise blockbuster Legally Blonde. When she's fired from her job at an upscale law firm for voicing her stance against the testing of cosmetics on animals, Elle heads to Capitol Hill to fight for her cause before Congress, leaving her boyfriend, Emmett (Luke Wilson, reprising his role from the film's predecessor), behind. Once there, she runs into plenty of adversity and red-tape and can't seem to find anyone who will listen to her proposals. While staying at the Watergate hotel though, she meets and befriends an elderly bellman (Bob Newhart in his first theatrical role since 1997's In & Out) who's been around politicians long enough to know the ins and outs of the political machine. With his help, Elle attempts to convince disillusioned U.S. Representative Rudd (Sally Field) to help her get her voice heard in front of the stodgy old coots of the legislative branch. Directed by Charles Herman-Wurmfeld hot off the success of his critically acclaimed indie comedy Kissing Jessica Stein, Legally Blonde 2: Red, White and Blonde boasts a supporting cast led by Jennifer Coolidge (Best in Show, American Pie) and Regina King (Jerry Maguire, Daddy Day Care). ~ Matthew Tobey, All Movie Guide

Written by J. Michael Straczynski, "Divided Loyalties" made its TV debut in the United Kingdom on July 2, 1995, but was held back from American release until October 12 of that year. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Bell) and Dwayne (Kadeem Hardison), an act of generosity that may get them in hot water with Walter (Sinbad).

Dyed-in-the-wool activist Murphy Brown (Candice Bergen) is determined to be the first woman to storm the battlements of the Dunfries, the last male-only club left in Washington DC. Not surprisingly, the members resist this onslaught of raw feminism, but Murphy is able to gain entry by digging up a loophole in the club's bylaws (Evidently, any professional person willing to wear a necktie can appear in the reception hall!) All this brouhaha does nothing to assuage the emotional pain suffered by Murphy's coworker Jim (Charles Kimbrough)--who happens to be a Dunfries Club member of long standing. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
