Bon Appetit or was it.
"Julie and Julia" follows the storyline of two people, Julia Childs (Meryl Streep), a renown french cook and Julie Powell (Amy Adams), a failed novelist. Julia's story works her way through writing her first book about french cooking. On the other hand, Julie cooks and blogs her way through Julia's cookbook. There are many funny parts throughout the film, where Julia wants to become a french cook and takes classes with a bunch of male chefs. Also the audience gets to see what Julie is writing in her blog about the different receipes she is cooking. However, the movie seems to fail for an ending. Although many will disagree with me on this point, the ending didn't grab my attention and I was rather disappointed.
The acting thoughout the film was very well done. Amy Adams and Meryl Streep always have a great performance on screen. Streep has been very famous for her many different roles in such movies as "The Devil Wears Prada" and "Doubt." Amy Adams started off in television and has been in many different television series, but has been making her way onto the big screen with movies such as "The Wedding Date," "Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian" and even sharing the screen with Streep in "Doubt." Also in this movie is Stanley Tucci who has joined Streep on screen in the movie "The Devil Wears Prada." Tucci plays Streep's husband, Paul Child.
"Julie and Julia" was done with simple edits throughout the movie. There were many establishing shots to help the audience understand which character the audience is watching. The movie was completely simple even in the sense of each character's outfits. The movie's construction was perfectly done.
This movie was directed by Nora Ephron and based off the novel written by Julie Powell. Ephron is famous for other movies she has done such as "Bewitched," "You've Got Mail," "Michael" and a classic that is shown on television, "Sleepless in Seattle."
"Julie and Julia" is a great movie for anyone who wants to see the life of Julia Childs and how a young woman was inspired by her french cookbook.
