Cnadice Bergen as a bitchy Mayor and mother of the bridegroom gets that line and it's my favorite from the movie. Bergen chews up the scenery with her accustomed gusto and flair. Now, as far as the movie goes, it's the cast and particularly Oscar winner Reese Witherspoon that elevates this film. Reese plays an up and coming fashion designer who gets engaged to the mayor's son (an effective Patrick Dempsey) but first has to get divorced from the husband no one in her new life knows about (Josh Lucas playing his usual Josh Lucas he-man roles). Reese has been trying for 7 years to get hubby Jake to sign the divorce papers but she has to back to sweet home Alabama to convince him to let her free so she can marry handsome Andrew. Fred Ward and Mary Kay Place are fine as Reese's down to earth parents; Ethan Embry is effective as an old friend with secrets; and Jean Smart is present as Lucas' mama. We all know what's bound to happen and it seems like it takes forever to do so. But there are some amusing moments and Reese, as always, is fun to share a couple hours with. Not great but okay!
