BIO

Dazzlingly beautiful Reese Witherspoon broke through with her remarkable performance as the precocious 14-year-old Dani in The Man in the Moon. Her pointy chin, wide nostrils, and youthful smile gave her a distinct and unconventional beauty – features that only intensified her star potential. Throughout the 1990s, she continued to deliver spirited, engaging performances in films such as Fear and Freeway. It wasn't until 1999, however, that she truly established herself among Hollywood's top names with standout roles in Cruel Intentions and Election. She met her future husband, Ryan Phillippe, while filming the former. In 2006, she won the Academy Award on her first nomination for her brilliant portrayal of June Carter Cash in Walk the Line.

 

TRIVIA

  • I first discovered Reese Witherspoon watching The Man in the Moon on VHS some time in the early 90s.
