The Devil Wears Prada




The Devil Wears Prada
Director : David Frankel
Cast : Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep


Adapted from a chicklit written by Lauren Weisberger, this is a hilarious comedy you don't want to miss.

When we said that we don't have a choice, basically we are just not ready for the consequences.

Andy Sachs is a young woman fresh graduated from college who wants to be a journalist. Her first job is hired as the second assistant to Miranda Priestly, a fabulous success devilish editor in a fashion magazine named Runaway. Nothing but fashion matters in Runaway. Despite of her dream, the job is merely full of stupid things to do such as finding Harry Potter unpublished manuscript for Miranda's twin daughters, and preparing Miranda's coffee with exact temperature. Andy try to survive since people say that million girls would die for this job and she basically doesn't have any other choice.

From a plain girl with number 6 size, Andy changed herself to a beautiful-stylish young woman with bright future in career. On the contrary, she gets trouble with her boyfriend, her old friends, and her family who couldn't understand such a big change in herself.

Though this film is a lightweight stuff, it's entertaining from beginning to the end. Meryl Streep plays in her highest excellence as an ambitious woman. Eventhough Anne Hathaway's acting as Andy is not superb and the character is typical, she is a natural choice for this part. Supported by glamorous costume design, I bet that you will be entertained during the play.

Finally, all I can say is, go to the movie, pick this film, buy some popcorn, and enjoy it :)

Thanksgiving 2020

What a crazy ride we have been riding in 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has pretty much put our life on hold, if not going on a slower pace. I feel that we are running a marathon, and it's not over yet. The emotional toll that we have been experiencing since March is real. Everything that we used to take for granted, like meeting up with friends, birthday parties, kids activities, traveling, the convenience of doing grocery shopping anytime we want, a lot of them have been taken away from us, from my family. No more parties, no more lunch or dinner with friends, no more invitation for birthday parties, no more traveling. Perhaps my life had become too easy before the pandemic. We had to switch Nathaniel from a brick and mortar school to a cyber school. I tried to plan my grocery trips ahead of time to avoid crowds. We had to wear masks everywhere. But at least we are healthy. At least I am facing this together with my husband and kids as a family. At least I am at home that is fu...
All of a sudden my thoughts fly to my old friends tonight. How are they all doing? I miss the good old days. I am here, content and happy, but somehow I still miss them. People come and go in your life, but true friends remain in the heart, no matter where they are now, right :) ?
