Another 29 million Americans drink wine at least once every three months. And both numbers have declined since 1994.

Reese Witherspoon, 26, was a critics' darling (especially in Election) before she earned fame last year in Legally Blonde. Superficially, Sweet Home Alabama is a similar fish-out-of-water scenario. Blonde sent a Beverly Hills fashionista to Harvard Law School; Sweet sends Southern gal Melanie--who had fled to New York City, found success as a designer and landed the mayor's son as her fiance--back home to get a quick divorce from Jake (Josh Lucas), the boy she had loved, wed and left in rancor. But Jake is so steamed that he won't sign the papers...
