I was looking forward to seeing this. I thought that they would elaborate on her ties to the British secret service during WWII. I thought that it would be a fun movie as I have the two books that are featured, and I love watching her old taped TV shows....
I thought too, that the premise of a young woman baking Julia’s recipes and blogging on it very unique. But that too, turned out to be a flat soufle in the end.
I saw it on Tuesday. It was in my opinion a “half-baked” summary of Julia Child’s life.
It was slow, tedious, without any tension or story line. Then they bring in the McCarthy thing again...and present it totally wrong.
It was in short, terrible. I won’t recommend it to anyone.
Oh yeah, Meryl will get another best actress nom for her portrayal, but the screenwriting sucked wet sour dough.
Excellent and fun writing nikos1121! :-D.
