|

I've seen this film last week, and it is really good - loads of mouth watering scenes too !
for those who don't know, it's about a young writer to be who decides to emulates Julia Child - there is a parallel between their lives and Meryl Streep and Amy Adams are great ! |

yes - I read the books too and was very happy to get a "preview" of the film in Montreal, since I don't know when it will be out in France ... |

minty, I can so easily picture Meryl as Julia...the voice she will capture I imagine! _________________ "I've never accepted the external appearance of things as the whole truth. The world is much more elaborate than the nerves of our eye can tell us." - James Gleeson |

I enjoyed the film but I thought Streep went over the top that it made Julia Cartoonish. _________________ Sharing food with another human being is an intimate act that should not be indulged in lightly

Am looking forward to film.
Had seen something about Julia's 'official' team disapproving of Julie's blog and film. _________________ eileen |
