EARLIER THIS WEEK, Reese Witherspoon was presented with a 15,000 word thesis on Legally Blonde.
While interviewing the actress about her upcoming film, A Wrinkle in Time, Lucy Jayne Forde decided to bite the bullet and reveal that her third-level degree had hinged on the dissertation she completed on Reese’s 2001 movie.
And Reese’s reaction was truly heartwarming.

Looking like she might shed a tear given half the chance, Reese told Lucy that she was truly touched by her efforts.
And once we had all finished sniffling into our sleeves, we decided to take a look at a whole host of other heartwarming interview moments in recent history.
And here are just eight of them.
1. Mila Kunis chatting to Chris Stark.
They were meant to be promoting Mila’s latest movie, but talk soon turned to Chris’ post-work pinting with the lads, and whether Mila would have the stomach for their Jaegerbomb- vodka concoction.
2. Ryan Gosling and Harrison Ford shooting the breeze with Alison Hammond.
It was clear the lads thought Alison was an absolute breath of fresh air, and spent the majority of the interview in absolute knots.
3. Ellen reuniting Chris Hemsworth with the teenager who returned his wallet.
If you want a heartwarming interview moment, you turn to Ellen De Generes.
And the chatshow host really delivered on that front when this teen’s good deed was massively rewarded.
4. Michael Caine… doing an impression of himself.
Look, we can all do it, but no one can do it as well as the man himself.
5. Ed Sheeran recognising his schoolfriend on Graham Norton’s Big Red Chair.
It’s not often the person on the Big Red Chair makes it out to the coveted couch, but that’s exactly what happens when you’re Ed Sheeran’s old schoolmate.
6. Morgan Freeman falling asleep while Michael Caine talked CGI.
If Morgan Freeman wants to sleep on the job, then Morgan Freeman gets sleeps on the job.
And we literally love him all the more for it.
7. Kristin Bell meeting her new pet sloth.
After regaling Ellen with a story of the time she got to hang out with a sloth at her birthday party, Kristin was moved to tears just remembering the magic moment.
8. Jennifer Lawrence getting starstruck in front of Jack Nicholson.
The Silver Linings Playbook star had just scooped the Oscar for Best Actress at the 2013 Academy Awards, and was doing the rounds with the press in the hours that followed when Jack Nicholson decided to interrupt one of Jen’s interviews.
And she reacted exactly like the rest of us.
