  • It sort of belongs to people
  • once you put it out in the world,
  • I wish I could be just like you.
  • Don't talk silly.
  • It's not silly.
  • You're the smartest girl in school.
  • You're so pretty it hurts.
  • Boys fall in love with themselves when you walk down the street,
  • And I'm just a lump.
  • Man in the Moon was my first movie ever.
  • I auditioned for it in Nashville
  • when I was fourteen years old,
  • They did a cross the country talent search for a Southern girl
  • and I got the part,
  • How was that?
  • Perfect.
  • I remember coming in from softball practice
  • and the phone ringing,
  • Kids, this is back when the phone was on the wall
  • and it had a curly wire that went back into the wall,
  • My mom said, my mom picked it up and she said, what?
  • What do you mean?
  • Reese, they said that they want you to come make a movie."
  • And I was like, what?
  • She said, they said you got the part.
  • And we all were just screaming and jumping up and down.
  • And it was a really, it was a really magical
  • amazing moment.
  • You see, I believe in the voters.
  • They understand that elections aren't just popularity contests,
  • They know this country was built by people just like me
  • who work very hard, and don't have everything handed to them on a silver spoon,
  • Oh my gosh.
  • It was so fun playing Tracy Flick.
  • I remember when I read the script
  • I was like, I have to play this part.
  • I must play this character.
  • And I remember going into the audition
  • and I looked at Alexander Payne
  • the director, and I was like,
  • You can audition other people
  • but I'm the right person for this part."
  • And he was like, holy crap.
  • Okay, I'm ready to begin.
  • And I just never dropped that character.
  • I flew to Omaha, Nebraska
  • and I had every day, was just such a delight with Alexander,
  • He is so funny.
  • He and I would laugh all the time
  • and he just let me be free to be as silly and strange as I wanted to be,
  • I remember seeing the movie and crying
  • because I was like, he did this thing where he stops motion on my face while I'm talking
  • so I'm like this, like at certain points I'm like
  • like that,
  • And I was like, why did you do that?
  • I looked so bad.
  • And I was like crying
  • and I was like…, And then people started calling me
  • and going, I love this movie.
  • I'm obsessed with this movie.
  • This movie is so fun and it's so great.
  • It was amazing that people loved it so much.
  • And that she became such an iconic
  • female political character, because we don't have that many.
  • And she is sort of an archetype of American ambition
  • and this idea of a woman wanting to get ahead,
  • And it's kind of interesting as you go back and look at it now
  • like what are the qualities that we thought were sort of not great about her ambition
  • and now that we encourage in young women,
  • So it's a real shift, I think.
  • Please stop.
  • It's okay, you can laugh.
  • I promise I won't tell anybody.
  • Cruel Intentions was so fun.
  • I remember reading the script and thinking
  • well, this is just a fun ride.
  • And getting to work with Sarah
  • which is the height of Buffy the Vampire Slayer fame
  • and Ryan and I were together as this couple
  • and we were having so much fun,
  • And it was just funny.
  • We had a great time.
  • I remember being in New York City and driving that
  • the very last scene where I'm driving the Jaguar.
  • They had a helicopter shooting us.
  • I was like, oh man, this is like real movie magic.
  • This is so cool.
  • Honey, so what did you do that made dad cut you off?
  • Okay, I bought a boat.
  • You bought a boat?
  • Yeah, but it wasn't for me, it was for a friend.
  • Why do we make friends with the wrong sister?
  • Oh my gosh, being on Friends still to this day is one of my scariest moments ever
  • because it was in front of a live audience,
  • Yes?
  • Hi.
  • And I'd never really done theater.
  • I'd never been in front of a live audience.
  • And I was just blown away
  • about how that cast pivoted so quickly with their jokes,
  • And that's Joey.
  • Hey, how you doing?
  • Don't.
  • And they had this natural rapport
  • and rhythm with each other
  • that I think has never really been,
  • really ever been that.
  • I've never seen it again.
  • It was just the six people working in rhythm together.
  • And then you could tell they truly loved each other.
  • So it was
  • It's really lovely to me that I got to see them.
  • I was the kid on the set
  • I think I was twenty two
  • and of course Jen was just the sweetest to me
  • always be.
  • I just had a baby and
  • I remember her and Courtney running to my dressing room going
  • can we see the baby?,
  • You have a baby?
  • I was like, I do, y'all, I have a baby.
  • And they would be like, can we touch the baby?
  • Can we hold the baby?
  • I was like, yeah, let's see her.
  • And Ava was on set, and I got to put her in the couch in Central Park,
  • I still have a little picture of her at Central Park
  • and she's like,
  • a baby like this.
  • You got into Harvard Law?
  • What, like it's hard?
  • Oh my gosh, Warner.
  • It's going to be so great.
  • I'm planning this great mixer.
  • You totally have to help me.
  • I'm thinking like a luau or maybe like casino night.
  • This is going to be just like senior year
  • except for funner.
  • Funner.
  • Playing Elle Woods was just
  • just the highlight of my career, my early career, for sure.
  • She was such a funny character.
  • She was such an underdog.
  • And just trying to find those pieces of her that was really vulnerable
  • that feeling that people underestimate you
  • and think you can't do things
  • which is a feeling that so many people feel in this world,
  • And I had no idea when we were making it
  • that it was gonna touch so many people's hearts,
  • And the thing I really love about Elle Woods
  • is I share that performance with so many young people
  • because of the stage play,
  • So many people have played Elle Woods.
  • So I feel like I'll have all these cool people come up to me
  • and be like, I played Elle Woods,
  • And I'm like, I played Elle Woods.
  • We're both Elle Woods.
  • So it's something that I really share with a lot of people.
  • Oh my god.
  • Oh my god.
  • Oh my god.
  • You know, I have a lot of people come up to me about Legally Blonde
  • and tell me that they went to law school because of Legally Blonde.
  • You don't realize, when you're making a movie
  • the impact that it's going to have
  • once it goes into the world,
  • But I'll go places like Japan or Russia or Poland
  • or I've been all over the world
  • and I've had women come up to me and say
  • you made me want to be a lawyer.
  • You made me want to reach for a higher degree
  • or you made me believe in myself,
  • And that's such…
  • I can't tell you how fulfilling that is
  • particularly when I hear it from little girls
  • or they write their college essays about
  • I want to be like Elle Woods.
  • It's a big part of my life.
  • I want to show you something.
  • I can't.
  • Can or won't?
  • Both?
  • All I want to say about Sweet Home Alabama is that is not Matthew McConaughey,
  • I know a lot of people think it's Matthew.
  • Matthew always says, everybody comes up to me and says
  • are you in Sweet Home Alabama?
  • And I'm not.
  • And I'm like, I know.
  • Well, I know.
  • And I've really only done
  • well, I've done three movies with Matthew
  • but not, he's not in Sweet Home Alabama.
  • Yeah, we're going to Jackson.
  • Ain't never coming back.
  • I knew it was a big undertaking
  • because we did seven months of training
  • of voice training, and instrument training,
  • And so we all had to learn to play instruments.
  • We all had vocal training.
  • We had to record an album.
  • And it was a tremendous amount of work.
  • But we were shepherded through that whole experience by T Bone Burnett
  • who is a music legend,
  • And thank God for him.
  • I still, every time I see him
  • I see him all the time and I say
  • T Bone, thank you for making me a country music star.
  • It was my biggest dream come true.
  • Because when I was a little girl
  • before I wanted to be an actor
  • I wanted to be a country music star.
  • I wanted to be Dolly Parton.
  • That was my dream, dream, dream.
  • So he made my dream come true.
  • T Bone and James Mangold, who wrote and directed the movie.
  • And working with Joaquin was just incredible.
  • To watch a person disappear into a performance like that
  • it truly transported you to another time.
  • And the costumes were so beautiful.
  • It's such a beautiful love story.
  • It was really a privilege to play June.
  • I just remember every time being completely surprised that I won an award
  • that I got the opportunity to play a woman that I admired so much
  • but that I was also rewarded by my peers
  • who I revere so much,
  • So having the Academy vote for me, it was really validating.
  • My mother used to say something that drove me nuts.
  • There's a sunrise and a sunset every day.
  • And you can choose to be there for it.
  • You can put yourself in the way of beauty.
  • Well, Wild's a really important movie in my career
  • because it's the first movie that I produced.
  • I bought the book before it ever came out
  • and before it was published.
  • And I was like, OK.
  • And I put my own money into it.
  • And I developed it.
  • And I was like, I'm going to star in it.
  • And so it started my producing career.
  • And it's very close to my heart because
  • Laura Dern's my very best friends in the whole world from that movie,
  • We didn't know each other before that movie.
  • And Cheryl Strayed is just one of the most phenomenal writers of our time
  • writing about emotion and grief and loss and love.
  • So I just learned a lot on that movie.
  • And I got to be with a director who really changed my career quite a bit
  • which is Jean Marc Vallee
  • who also directed Big Little Lies,
  • If I were you, I would just let it go.
  • I would.
  • With Bonnie, Abigail, I'd ride it out.
  • No, I love my grudges.
  • I tend to them like little pets.
  • Oh, wow.
  • I mean... You know, I'd seen Nicole Kidman before at the Oscars once.
  • Okay, y'all?
  • And she was nominated for Moulin Rouge!
  • And I remember stopping her
  • and just fangirling over her
  • and going, I just want you to know
  • I think you are so incredibly talented,
  • And I just hope one day I get a chance to work with you.
  • And she was like,
  • Oh, that's so lovely.
  • Thank you so much."
  • That's my Nicole impression.
  • But then when that book came out
  • Big Little Lies, and she and I were both bidding on it
  • and we had a mutual producer who called us
  • and said, why don't we just all do it together?
  • And so honestly, every day
  • I was on that set, I couldn't believe I was sitting across from Nicole Kidman
  • and that she was acting in a part
  • and I was acting with her,
  • I'd almost just stare at her half the time
  • because I couldn't believe what was happening,
  • And I was like, you're Nicole Kamen.
  • She's like, I know.
  • I was like, I just wanted you to know.
  • I just wanted to make sure that you were aware
  • that you're Nicole Kamen,
  • To you, I give the gift of your faults.
  • You're welcome.
  • You do know my faults are the bad qualities, right?
  • Are they really?
  • Well, then you're all set.
  • You don't wanna ask me about Oprah?
  • I just, I just love her.
  • She's really as great as you think she is.
  • She's really, truly the greatest.
  • I got to do a movie with her
  • and that was, the best thing about making a movie with Oprah was spending three hours with her every day in the makeup trailer
  • because she's just that inspiring at all times,
  • I'll see you Tuesday.
  • Okay.
  • And maybe we could go get a drink or something next week.
  • I just, I feel like when you came back
  • I had all these barriers up and it just wasn't fair.
  • I would really love that.
  • Oh my gosh.
  • It's been so fun doing Morning Show with Jen.
  • This was also based on a book.
  • And we also called each other and said
  • should we do this together?
  • Should we make a TV show together?
  • And it just felt so right.
  • It was a time, it was like this pivotal time in journalism
  • where everything was shifting
  • and we were seeing behind the scenes what was happening to women in news and media,
  • And it just was like perfect timing for us to jump into this project together,
  • We just had dinner last night.
  • We were sisters for life.
  • We were sisters on Friends.
  • Now we're work wives.
  • And just nothing's ever felt more natural.
  • We just love each other.
  • It's a really, it's a big love.
