The Fashion World - The Devil wears Prada

Advantages: Good storyline, great acting
Disadvantages: Doesn't stick to the book

I had actually read the book of The Devil Wears Prada by Lauren Weisberger before seeing this film for the first time and therefore think I may have a slightly different opinion to someone who has not read the book. The plot of the film is that a young girl called Andrea who has just graduated from college is out to find her first job. She really wants to become a journalist but knows she must find any way into the industry she can. She ends up going ...
...though; it is to be the new assistant to Miranda Priesly. Miranda is a notorious woman in the fashion industry who will not take no for an answer. When Andy attends the interview Miranda looks her up and down and is certainly disapproving of her attire. Andy ends up bursting out in anger during the interview, which seems to be the ticket to her employment. When she starts at Runway Andy is sceptical and mocks the other size 0 Miranda worshipers to ...

...believes she can win the Little Miss Sunshine beauty contest, 800 miles across the country. The film shows how even the most dysfunctional families can pull together when they need to. Steve Carell heightens the humour as a suicidal brother in law, living with the dysfunctional Hoover family. Foul Mouthed grandpa (Alan Kirkin) is a sex-obsessed drug addict, with a son – Richard (Greg Kinnear), who’s speeches to his children about winning are as interesting ...
...shown in the film) Also little girls reaching perfection, overshadowed by their parents own eagerness to succeed, is not the best way to start a young girls life; the early years of life is when our personalities develop. If young children are lead to believe their worth and value as human beings depend on their physical appearance, then this is likely to become their belief throughout their life. As much as the end is funny, it does seem to end ...

Sometimes the truth is 'Stranger Than Fiction'.

Advantages: A unique, intriguing and well-written story with some powerful performances.
Disadvantages: the ending has been considered by some to be too neatly tied up.

Stranger than Fiction (2006) directed by Marc Forster is a somewhat dark comedy centred around a man called Harold Crick (played by Will Farrell.) Harold leads a relatively mundane and lonely life as an IRS auditor. Everyday he wakes up at the same time, ties his tie in the same knot, gets the same bus, eats the same lunch alone and then makes his way home to eat dinner at his single one-bedroom apartment. However, this all changes when he starts ...
...apartment. The original score and soundtrack compliments the film's story, with numbers from Spoon, The Jam's 'Entertainment' and M83's 'In Church', among others. All in all, Stranger than Fiction is a film that sucks you in with an intriguing plot line and keeps you immersed until the very end. ...
