I think the film might be the better choice for me.<br /><br />That's kind of sad though that the author has a profane tongue and a biting look at the world. I'm sure Ms Ephron has dolled it up for Hollywood, as you suggest.Salvatorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09473548227400371871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5081916964396312801.post-65844353207869493702009-07-28T12:01:19.826-05:002009-07-28T12:01:19.826-05:00Oh Sal, she does go into the cooking, quite a bit....Oh Sal, she does go into the cooking, quite a bit. I just hate cooking, so I was glad that wasn't the ONLY focus on the book. She creates a good balance between cooking details and everything else.<br /><br />I bet they add a lot of Julia Child focus for the movie. Her presence is minimal in the book (other than an overarching "Julia Child is inspiration" theme).Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03858788786888440257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5081916964396312801.post-22137023877145247242009-07-28T11:44:45.410-05:002009-07-28T11:44:45.410-05:00Interesting.

To be honest, I think my interest in the Julie/Julia story is the Julia Child bit...and I've already read 'My Life in France'. But good to know. I may see the film, just to be entertained by that wily Meryl Streep and her what looks to be amazing performance as Ms Child.Salvatorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09473548227400371871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5081916964396312801.post-60011551219416707452009-07-28T10:54:58.712-05:002009-07-28T10:54:58.712-05:00I listened to the audio version of this book and j...I listened to the audio version of this book and just loved it.
