Julie & Julia
Director: Nora Ephron
Cast: Meryl Streep, Amy Adams, Stanley Tucci, Chris Messina
Synopsis: Meryl Streep is Julia Child and Amy Adams is Julie Powell in writer-director Nora Ephron’s adaptation of two bestselling memoirs: Powell’s Julie & Julia and My Life in France, by Julia Child with Alex Prud’homme.
Based on two true stories, Julie & Julia intertwines the lives of two women who, though separated by time and space, are both at loose ends...until they discover that with the right combination of passion, fearlessness and butter, anything is possible.
Critics: “There are few more civilised, civilising and generally delightful movies around at the moment than Nora Ephron's Julie & Julia.” - Observer
“Julie & Julia is among the most heart-warming, feel good films of the year, and so joyously obsessed with food that it might be described as a feed-good movie” - Daily Mail
“Julie & Julia is a highly polished piece of upmarket entertainment, brimming with beautiful interiors. If you throw in the lavish helpings of food porn it’s almost like a colour supplement come to life.” - Times
Award/Nominations: Julie & Julia was nominated for three Satellite Awards, including Best Motion Picture Comedy or Musical and Best adapted Screenplay.
