Saw 2 movies this week - One charming, and the other, very clever.
In
Julie and Julia, Julie Powell (
Amy Adams), as a way of spicing her life up, opens a copy of Julia Child's (
Meryl Streep) "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" and decides to cook all 524 recipes herself in 365 days and also - to blog about it! The story of her quest is interwoven with depictions of Julia Child's own life in Paris in the 1940s and '50s. The ending, is not quite "Hollywoodesque", but an apt one I thought. I enjoyed the movie -and got hungrier as every minute went by. A must, especially if you are a foodie.
Moon is one the better Sci-fi movies you'll see. Astronaut Sam Bell is living on the dark side of the moon, completing a three-year contract with Lunar Industries to mine Earth’s primary source of energy. Or so he thinks! Not many special effects, if that's what you expect from a Sci-fi movie, but what drives the movie is a fantastic idea.
Sam Rockwell, who plays the astronaut, I thought was brillaint in this role.
