Mother Of The Legend

There are no many legendary discoveries that are admired for their simplicity. The film industry routinely tries to light more and more projects, making them available to the world history. So, now it is a turn for in all corners of the planet's famous doll. Doll named Barbie . It was decided to film her story by one of the sweetest and forever young Hollywood stars, "gold" blonde Reese Witherspoon. Well, let's take a look behind the scenes and find out what is hidden there!

Children's story

Barbie doll is a project that has become successful by accidental admire of her proportions by one of the future manufacturer. This doll still has a bunch of critics, but sales are not dropping. “Barbie” has become a household name. Now this example of plastic beauty is a standard, but unattainable ideal. The idea of creating a film based on the book came to Reese accidentally, after reading the novel. The author described in details the biography of Barbie’s "mom". Her name is Ruth; she is a simple woman who has never counted on such a success. The doll was created and named in honor of Ruth's daughter Barbara. Affectionately she was called Barbie by her parents. After the appearance of the dolls on sale, many critics ridiculed toy’s figure. Too incredibly ideal forms of Barbie had provoked a lot of aggression. However, doll had a huge success. Five years after the start of sales revenue accounted for millions of dollars!

What the film adaptation would be like?

The film will cover all the time, from the moment when the idea just occurred to Ruth. So, as Reese purchased the exclusive rights for the story, it will be produced by well-known blonde. It is unofficially confirmed that Reese would take also the main part. From being associated only with a "pink" girl from "Legally Blonde" (and the same “pink” motion picture with Sofia Vergara), Witherspoon evolved from a naive “Reese-candy” into an amazing woman. Her talent allowed her to show off, to open up and now she has started the implementation of another project. Events in the film will take place in the early 60s, so we expect a special atmosphere. Work on the movie has just begun, so is not necessary expecting anything in upcoming year. We wish good luck to Ruth and Rees – having such a database can create a truly cult biopic. It can even be an inspiration for new ideas! We also may guess that Ruth herself will take an active part in the creation of the project.
