Julie & Julia

I know this movie has been talked to death about here, here, and here, but maybe one more person will convince you to go see it if you haven’t done so already.  I just watched it this evening and am still in that movie coma faze where half your thoughts are focused on what you’re doing and the other half is still immersed in the scenes of the movie.  It was really inspiring on so many levels for me, for this blog, and for life in general.  I read the book several years ago but was not as impressed as I am with the movie. I think it was because the movie featured Julia Child as a major character while the book was solely about Julie Powell.  Both people are great protagonists, but I must say Julia Child’s attitude and lyrical voice are so memorable and such a delight to imitate.  I think the best thing that I got out from the film was that it’s important to find something that you love and are passionate about.  Once you find that, life won’t necessarily be easier but it will definitely be a lot more happier.

It is a delicious movie and you must go watch it!  Now I am off to Amazon to get myself a copy of Mastering the Art of French Cooking.
