Nick and I checked it out on Saturday, and we were not disappointed — it was SO good! There were even a few lines that I missed because the laughter in the packed theatre was so loud.
I don't know that I would have loved it quite as much if I hadn't already known a bit about Julia Child — Meryl Streep was absolutely awesome and hysterical as Julia — but hopefully it will teach some youngins about her legacy :-)
Amy Adams really can't be bad in a movie, if you asked me, so it came as no surprise that she was wonderful, too.A few details were modified for the film, but I was pleasantly surprised that a lot of the experiences that Julie Powell relayed in her book were pretty accurately portrayed. Overall, it was just delightful and I highly recommend you check it out :-)
The real Julie Powell
I am so excited to read this book/see the movie! Can you even imagine how awesome the real Julie must feel, knowing that AMY ADAMS (!!) played her in the movie? Awesome. Must read/see soon.
