    A from a movie that I find similar to me is the main character from the character movie Legally Blonde. Elle Woods and I both have lots of trouble getting to the point fast enough to tell what we are trying to tell you about. We both share the love for the study of law.

    what about fictional works based on strong women? In Ancient Greece, Medea was focused on a leading woman who was driven and ambitious. A more modern film, Legally Blonde, shows a girl persistently going against the flow to make dreams come true.
