Based on two true stories, Julie and Julia intertwines the lives of two women who, 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.
Amy Adams stars in this true story about Julie Powell, a young woman with a passion for food- and a strange love for anything pertaining to Julia Child. She sets a goal to cook her way through Julia Child’s cookbook in a year and blog about it. Along the way, she overcomes some obstacles, like her mom’s persistent attitude on giving up, a huge fight with her husband, live lobsters, and deboning a duck. Throughout the movie, Julia Child’s story is also told, showing how she came to love food and how she began to cook. All in all, I’d say Julie and Julia was a good movie, full of laughs and a whole lot of food that looked really tasty. This movie is rated PG-13 for brief strong language and some sensuality, so I wouldn’t recommend it for younger audiences. There's a few parts you have to fast forward, so pay attention and keep your clicker in hand. As you follow the lives of Julie and Julia, you’ll find yourself rooting for both of them as they face some bumps along the way to success- Julie, with her cooking and blog, and Julia, becoming a famous chef. Oh yeah, and if you don't believe in using butter, I wouldn’t recommend this movie… Julia Child was a HUGE fan of butter!
