In between references to Kafka and brief spurts of German, Kennedy also made one other, arguably more important point: "Legally Blonde" is a good movie. Famous for its Harvard setting and pinkness, the movie traces the rise of Elle Woods from clueless sorority president to award-winning law student. That story arch seemed to have some appeal for Kennedy.
“It’s actually pretty good,” he said. Amazing, because we completely agree.
