Despite three years of lessons, at the end of camp her coaches tell her to forget about singing. They suggest she think about another career. If Reese did have talent, it was hiding under her skinny, mousy frame and her Coke-bottle glasses.
Still, she takes their words to heart. After all, why shouldn't she believe the professionals?
But back at home in Nashville, her mother, a funny, happy, upbeat person, wouldn't let her mope. Her father, a physician, encouraged her to achieve in school. So she worked hard at everything and was accepted at Stanford University.
And at age 19, she got a part in a low-budget movie called Freeway. That led to a substantial role in the movie Pleasantville. But her big break came with Legally Blonde.
她已經(jīng)上了三年的聲樂(lè)課程,但夏令營(yíng)結(jié)束時(shí),老師們還是告訴她應(yīng)該忘掉唱歌這件事兒,另謀出路。如果里斯確實(shí)有天分的話,那也是給她纖細(xì)的身材和厚如可樂(lè)瓶底兒的眼鏡遮蓋住了。
雖然心有不甘,可她還是聽從了建議,畢竟,她有什么理由懷疑專業(yè)人士呢?
但回到位于納什維爾的家里,她的媽媽—— 一名風(fēng)趣、快樂(lè)、樂(lè)觀的兒科護(hù)士——可不會(huì)讓里斯感到絲毫的沮喪。她的爸爸是一名醫(yī)生,他鼓勵(lì)女兒在學(xué)業(yè)上有所成就。于是,她凡事努力,終于被斯坦福大學(xué)錄取。
19歲那年,她出演了一部低成本電影《極速驚魂》。這為她后來(lái)在《歡樂(lè)谷》中爭(zhēng)取到真正重要的角色奠定了基礎(chǔ)。而她真正的破冰之作是影片《律政俏佳人》。
