|
Book: I L-O-V-E LOOOOOOVVEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!
Movie: Good... I enjoyed...
So anyway The Devil Wears Prada if you don't already know... is about a young journalist, Andrea aka Andy, who just graduated and is looking for a job in the bustling city of New York... however because she had no experience... the newspapers did not want to hire her so she decides to apply for an assistant job in the most popular fashion magazine ever "Runway"... by some miracle she ends up getting the job as Miranda Priestly's second personal assistant aka the job a million girls would die for... however it turns out that Miranda is a psycho bitch who only cares about her own needs and since everyone worships her she can in fact do whatever she wants... At first Andy finds it hard to cope with the crazy demands of her boss and nearly gives up... but she realises that by working for Miranda for a year... she can get a job in any publication she wants... so she sticks it out and actually begins to be really good at her job... However she slowly becomes obssessed with her job so much that she starts to neglect her boyfriend, friends and family... But in the end when Miranda points out that she sees a lot of herself in Andy... Andy realises how awful she's been and quits... From then she actually manages to get the job that she wants... and even though the fashion industry aka Miranda does not want to admit it... it has obviously been very much impressed and moved by the oddball that is Andrea... Starring Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep...
Read the book... Watch the movie and then read the book again... At first I thought Meryl Streep was a rather odd person to play Miranda but she was absolutely fabulous!!!! I didn't imagine Anne Hathaway as Andy either but she did a good job as well... It's good... trust me... go watch it... but most importantly read the book... written by Lauren Weisberger... she also has a second book out Everyone Worth Knowing which is quite good as well...Labels: movie |
