In the holiday film, Sweet Home Alabama, Directed by Andy Tennant is about the faith one has in them self and how they can overcome their fears to find what truly matters to them. A young woman with a white trash background Melanie Smooter (Reese Witherspoon) moves to New York in order to establish herself as a socialite. The only problem is, she leaves a husband in her small town in Alabama behind. In New York she meets a young man Andrew Hennings (Patrick Dempsey) who asks her to marry him. She is worried because, her whole life with Andrew is based on tales she told. He has no idea that her real life in her small town includes a husband and a white trash past. Melanie goes south in order to meet up with Jake Perry ( Josh Lucas) and have him sign the divorce papers. When Andrew's mom, Mayor Hennings finds out about Melanie's past, she immediately sends someone to investigate. The story unravels and it helps Melanie show what kind of person she grew up to be and how some one's past never really goes away. You have to have faith in yourself and the person you are. Overall the comedy and romance movie is a great holiday film and one of my favorites.
I'd rate it : *
