Julie & Julia-2009<\/strong><\/p>\n

Director Nora Ephron<\/strong><\/p>\n

Scott’s Review #588<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reviewed January 7, 2017<\/p>\n

Grade: A-<\/strong><\/p>\n

Julie & Julia (2009) is a darling film about cooking that centers and centers on the legendary chef Julia Child. It is for the foodie or culinary geek in all of us.<\/p>\n

The film is lighthearted and will ruffle no feathers, but it is a delicious well-told treat.<\/p>\n

The film tells of the life of Julia Child (Meryl Streep), at one time an aspiring chef, contrasted with the life of a young New Yorker, blogger Julie Powell (Amy Adams), who is determined to cook all five hundred twenty-four recipes in Child’s famous cookbook, Mastering the Art of French Cooking, within one year.<\/p>\n

The film, of course, would not be half as good without the amazing talents of Streep, who portrays Julia Child herself. All of Julia Child’s personality characteristics are portrayed exceptionally well by Streep.<\/p>\n

Her laugh, voice, and zest for life, are all perfect. Of course, since Streep is not nearly as tall a woman as Child was, liberties had to be taken by way of camera trickery.<\/p>\n

Regardless of Streep’s performance, props for a nice performance by Adams, too.<\/p>\n

Julie & Julia (2009) is a cute, charming, light, fun movie. I thoroughly recommend it.<\/p>\n
