Cooming Soon: Julie & Julia | July 15, 2009

If you’ve walked through your community mall or anywhere in your section of the world where there are lots of those demanding pop up advertisements, you’ve probably seen a lot of Meryl Streep. Scary.

That’s because there’s been a lot of big buzz on her new film, “Julie & Julia”, which stars, as you know, Meryl Streep and Amy Adams. The films about the inspiration that the famous chef Julia Child had on book author Julie Powell during a depressing time in her life where she was feeling inadequate. Written and directed by Nora Ephron, the film plays off the two true stories of Julia Child and Julie Powell, who have many similarities, though they live in separate times. Originally, Powell was an ordinary desk-job secretary but after a year of cooking only Julia Child recipes she found new things to make her boring life a lot more tolerable and wrote a book about those endeavors.

Let’s hope Ephron’s adaption is NY Times Best Selling cause those folks don’t settle for less.
