So, sweetie, Owen left you for another woman in another town, and you owe it to yourself to give him a piece of your mind. You know, I agree, but I have no idea how to contact him.

DROP DEAD DIVA 4.09

[altschmerzes]

favorite movie lawyer from this not at all highly opinionable list: elle woods (obvs), atticus finch (to kill a mockingbird), or fred gailey (miracle on 34th street (if you've seen it))

EXCELLENT taste (at least in terms of elle woods and atticus finch, i can't speak to miracle on 34th street as i have not in fact seen it)

might i also submit for my personal consideration: not in a movie but in a tv show, jane bingum/deb dobkins from drop dead diva.

New AU idea: after Rhaenys dies, her spirit ends up in the body of a lowborn woman, who had also just died of natural causes. She rightfully perceives this as a second chance gifted to her by the gods. Her goal immediately becomes to get back to her family on Dragonstone, but she faces two obstacles: getting out of King’s Landing and getting Corlys and everyone else to believe her. She doesn’t have the money to buy her way onto a ship, but when the call comes for dragon riders, she takes a gamble.

Brooke Elliott’s portrayal of Jane Bingum in “Drop Dead Diva” challenges stereotypes head-on. By embodying a character who is both intelligent and plus-size, Elliott’s performance shatters preconceived notions of what a leading character should look like. Jane’s sharp legal mind, dedication, and determination underscore the message that a person’s capabilities extend far beyond their appearance. The show’s unconventional premise, which swaps a model’s soul into a lawyer’s body, cleverly turns traditional beauty standards on their head, demonstrating that true beauty transcends physicality.
