Just saw the movie and wanted to mention there were some scenes of Paris and many of NYC.

Yeah SeaUrchin and I just want to mention our idiotic 16 screen theater in my city is not showing this movie. See why I complain!!

Did you like the movie? DH and I were just talking about going to see it tonight.

Yes, it was enjoyable. As everyone is saying M. Streep was excellent! The whole cast was excellent.

I was just disappointed in the ending, I would have added more interest and done the opposite, but I won't say any more. I wonder if anyone agrees with me, the audience I was with seemed fine with it.

I do recommend it. LI, I wonder if it is limited release? You have my condolences!

Above reviewer says " The Devil Wears Prada is two films in one: a caustic, energetic satire of the fashion world and a cautionary melodrama. The first works; the second doesn't ...."

Hi SeaUrchin, it is just that our local theater only seems to show movies that interest children, teens and young men. Had the same problem with the theater where I lived before. So went into SF to see the movies that interested us. But a bit of a hassle to go to SF to just see a movie from where I live now.

I was so mad this weekend, LOL as I really was looking forward to seeing it. The friend that was going to go with me was disgusted too and was my daughter. Bet there were a lot of angry women here this weekend, sigh.

Just kidding. Have you thought about moving to a more "civilized town"?

Yes bill, Rome as a matter of fact!! And that may happen in a few years.
Bill I live where I do as my family is here. It is a friendly easy place to live but to say it is not the most exciting is putting it midly!

Well except for the shop on Main St., right SeaUrchin?

SeaUrchin, the title alone is great and from what it sounds like, the movie is too! LOL I would love to see it and will have to catch it while it is still in theaters, otherwise, I will wait for it on video. Thanks for the posting.

Huitres, I read the book when it first came out. If you like to read on the plane it might be a fun book for you to take with you!

I wonder if MK2 has a part? LOL

I agree with the critic Kappa posted. Except I did like Anne Hathaway in her role. I would have liked to have left the theatre before the sappy ending, but then again, that is me.

I saw it yesterday.It was a couple of hours of fun,nothing at all serious.The clothes-to die for!!!Meryl Streep?Flawless,of course.

I read the book a couple of years ago,and I believe the ending was faithful to it,as was the tone of the whole movie.

Streep was good - the rest of the cast ranged from OK to amateurish. Had been told it was a comedy. Where was the funnny part? (No one laughed at all at the theater I was in.)

As for the satire - I have had bosses similar to that. I have even been a boss similar to that (not coffee and dry cleaning, but giving non-stop orders to a group of juniors as they ran down the hall behind me on the way out the door to the client). That's not satire - it's just real life in a lot of businesses.

Yikes...every time I read of a novel that is made into a flick, I shutter.

I've been going through this painful exercise daily for the past five months, having my 600-page historical novel translated into a two-hour movie script. Every little change and every character elimination or reduction felt like having a lobotomy without anasthesia. At least the screen writer and I are still on civil terms. For now.
(Will be filmed in Romania eventually).

Stu T.(wife and I are going to see "Devil" tomorrow)

I spent a wonderful week in Paris at the end of May. When 2 of the movie's characters walked along a street near Notre Dame,exactly where I walked several times, I grinned like the proverbial Cheshire Cat! I totally missed their dialogue b/c I was so busy noticing the window displays were different! DUH.

Read the book when it first came out, and I just returned from seeing the movie. I thought it was fun, and although not a comedy, my daughter and I laughed at quite a few of the lines. My daughter traded in the modeling world for motherhood, so we had a few laughs.

Well, yes, satire is the wrong word I guess.

I will just say I enjoyed the movie and so did the man I was with, so not just for chicks!

And Stu you are counting the hours until then? Or not perhaps. But you are a good husband!
