Reese Witherspoon's Reaction To A Writer's "Legally Blonde" Dissertation Will Make You Cry

    "Is it scented?"

    In case you've somehow missed it, the cast of A Wrinkle in Time is a truly iconic group of people, including Oprah Winfrey, Mindy Kaling, and Reese Witherspoon.

    While doing press for the film, reporter Lucy Ford sat down with the perfect trio to chat about A Wrinkle in Time, but before she started she planned to present Reese with something special — her 15,000-word university dissertation on Legally Blonde:

    4 years ago I wrote my university dissertation on Legally Blonde, and I'm about to give it to @RWitherspoon herself. I may cry https://t.co/AKKtH4BSw6

    Lucy shared footage of the moment she presented her idol with the gift, and it's honestly one of the most special and pure celebrity reactions I've ever seen. You just need to watch the whole thing:

    Honestly, this GIF of Reese finding out someone wrote 15,000 words about her has extended my life by approximately 20 years.

    After Reese told Lucy how much the gesture meant to her, she just had one question:

    It was just a perfect throwback to this iconic Legally Blonde moment:

    People couldn't get enough of the heartfelt exchange:

    This video cleared my skin, boosted my GPA, washed and folded my laundry, and gave me the motivation to get out of bed. Thank you. https://t.co/TXiDMUfxsd
