Julie & Julie Movie Photo
Pam and I went with some friends this week to see Julie and Julia at the movies. We dined first – of course, gathering with friends and NOT eating is NOT allowed! One of Pam’s friends brought a bottle of wine to share. The restaurant didn’t have a corkage fee. She was SMART and called ahead of time to check. I would have never thought to do that. I will now!
Back to the movie…. it was funny, smart, and inspiring. At least for us in the food business… it took Julia and her partners over 8 years to get the book Mastering the Art of French Cooking published. And, they had to rewrite it (the first edition had over 700 recipes). I enjoyed the movie immensely and so did the crowd – male and female as we all chuckled through the entire movie.
Pam and I tried to see Julia Child when she was speaking at the Getty before she passed away, but didn’t and boy, did we miss an opportunity! And so I was delighted when Pam arranged to interview Graham Kerr, the Galloping Gourmet on our radio show yesterday… he has such a great sense of humor! More about him in our next post!
***** 5 stars for Julie and Julia
