This was a very entertaining movie. The script was intelligent. The style of the directing and editing was seamless. The settings were wonderful and the opposite time zones were as much of the story as the subject matter.
The best part was seeing and hearing the talented Meryl Streep in the role of Julia Child. Amy Adams is always delightful and gives energy to the main protagonist's story. The rest of the cast , including the wonderful Stanley Tucci playing Julia Child's husband, was very supportive.
The icing on the cake of this film was a buoyant musical score that complemented the story . Kudos to brilliant director Nora Ephron and her ensemble for bringing together the ingredients to make a fine film.
