Reese's Elle is about to marry Emmett (Luke Wilson), her law school sweetheart, when she learns some nasty truths about cosmetics testing on animals. Elle and Bruiser the Chihuahua (animal actor Moonie) pack up for the nation's capitol to change the law -- and give D.C. designer flair!
But if you want dish on Reese's diva behavior behind the...
