Erin Brockovich

Erin Brockovich-Ellen was born in Lawrence, Kansas, June 22, 1960. She is an American legal clerk who despite of no law school education or any legal education at all, was a central person in the construction of a case again PG&E (Pacific Gas and Electric Company).
Erin Brockovich can be described in these words: Stubborn, Strong, tough and sexy. After working as a management trainee at Kmart in 1981, she participated in some beauty pageants and won the title Miss Pacific Coast 1981. Furthermore she moved to California and she has been living there since 1982.
In the movie where the beautiful Julia Roberts plays the role of Erin Brockovich she is shown as a fighter, rebel and a woman with different ways to prove a point. In a unique way she manage to persuade and help her clients like no other person would have manage in the same way.  She is very serious about her job, and as we can see in the movie she puts a lot of time into the work. That literally pays of in the end, but this also meant that she had less time for her children and her boyfriend who was home watching them while she was working.
Erin Brockovich is a two time divorcee with three children and has now remarried the actor Eric Ellis. I get the feeling that Erin Brockovich doesn’t care about what other people think; her history, what she wears or how she talks. She has a tendency of cursing a lot, but in a charming way though.  Her history, clothes and the informal language of hers is a part of who she is and the way other people look at her as the strong, tough woman she is.

  1. Nice comments in the end. I did not know that she was married to an actor. Hm, difficult to know what is fiction and what is the truth in the movie. But we do see a strong person in her character, and I am sure she is. Seems she has done well for herself after this famous case too.
