Witherspoon was just 23 when she tied the knot with her "Cruel Intentions" co-star, the father of her eldest two children, Ava, 18, and 13-year-old Deacon.
The 41-year-old actor says her latest movie, "Home Again", struck a chord with her as it explored how to rebuild life as a mother after a divorce, according to Hello! magazine.
"I got married when I was 23-years-old and you're not a grown-up at 23. You think you are, but you're not.
"Then your life suddenly changes and I love that this movie explores that, as well as the next chapter and how you have to decide whether the track you are on is where you want to be for the rest of your life," she says.
"I feel great. It feels like a time when you know who you are, what you want to accomplish in life, and you have all this knowledge and experience to share with people," she says.
