Julie and Julia

If you're thinking, what?? Anna, another movie???

Yeap, are you jealous? If you're from SMU, you might think I'm a terrible project mate cos it's Week 10 *screeeams* and I actually had the mood to watch a movie. Oh well, YOU GO get a life.

Julie and Julia is really two movies pieced to make a sweet concoction. Julie is a young 30 year old hot wife with a hot husband. In the midst of her meaningless life, she decides to throw herself into a cooking project that aims to complete more than 500 french cooking recipes in 365 days. On top of that, she has a full time job. What I loved about her? Her husband! Haha. I was surprised in the middle of the movie to find that the man in her life was not her co-habiting partner but her husband.

Let's talk about Julia. Julia Child teaches us that life begins at 40. You're never too old to imagine great things. That the things you do are not so that you would have NOTHING to do. Well, she does seem a little cuckoo at times, but we should all have cuckoo moments.

Should you watch the movie? Totally if you're a lady and for men, I don't know if it's for you. There's not much action and the entertainment was found in the script and glorious images of the food! OH THE FOOD!

"I know it's not polite to say this.. but yum!"
