Julie & Julia

The magnificent Meryl Streep brings her magic to a mediocre film as she has done it again and again. What she did to the world of fashion in "The Devil Wears Prada," she does it in the world of cooking through the role of Julia Child who brought French cuisine to the households in America. The story of an unhappy married woman who sets out to cook her way through Child's classic cooking book in a year that lead to a book and movie along with happiness, fame and fortune. Writer and director Nora Ephron cleverly weaves the story of Child into the contemporary story that gives credit where it's due which allows Streep to save yet another film from ruin.
