She was kind of obsessed with her looks + so was everyone else.


Right? 'a pretty girl shouldn't have to be poor' okay? And everyone fawning over her was annoying.

I agree. Found some of those lines shallow too. Initially I kind of sympathized for her. But when she started getting gifts and making excuses for keep doing it and the drug use, I lost all my sympathies for her.

Exactly.

Yeah, my jaw dropped when she said that. I think one of the themes was that her mom raised her like that.

"I don't want to make money. I just want to be wonderful."

I know this thread is five years old, but I just watched this movie. When she said to her lawyer friend "My mom always said I was too pretty to be a lawyer" I wanted her friend to slap her. So condescending and it suggests that only unattractive girls like her friend (in her opinion, not mine) can be lawyers. JLH is pretty, yes, but not so much more attractive than the other women in the movie that she should be raving about her own looks all the time.
