Julia & Julia

Julie & Julia is a really entertaining movie...or should I say movies? Amy Adams plays Julie Powell. A woman in a job that gets her down living in an apartment that gets her down. The only thing she finds enjoyable is cooking. Meryl Streep plays Julia Child. A woman who finds herself in France (b/c of her husband's job) with nothing to keep her busy except for food. Julie decides to cook her way through Julia Child's cook book to get her through a year of her life. Julia decides to take cooking classes and finds her true passion.

The movie follows the story of the two women. Julie, over her year of cooking and blogging and finally living her life. Juli
a, over many years of cooking and try to write her cookbook that would eventually inspire so many.

Both Adams and Streep to a great job at endearing themselves to the audience. Stanley Tucci also did an excellent job at
playing Paul Child.

Julie & Julia gets three kernels - entertaining on many levels.
