This was one of the BEST movies I've seen in a long while. Meryl Streep is phenomenal in her depiction of Julia Childs! She obviously watched lots of film clips abut Julia, as she had her down pat! I learned things about Julia such as what a wonderful marriage she had, how she got started in cooking, etc. LOVED the movie!
I did not read the book before seeing the movie. I thought the entire cast were great! The production kept you guessing...just when you thought you had it figured out, the story took a different twist. As usual, Tom Hanks was great.
