Julie & Julia
Saw it on opening day and thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. Streep is Julia Child. A really great performance. You know the movie works well when they switch back and forth between the two different stories and you forget about the previous one for a few minutes since it is so enjoyable.

Went to see this film tonight with a friend, as it's only just come out over here.
Immaculate acting and great direction. Streep gave a warmth and vulnerability to a large than life personality. The two stories worked perfectly together, the whole film was LOL funny, beautifully observed, charming and poignant - full of laughter and tears. In fact, I left the cinema feeling rather overwhelmed and little teary-eyed... and it wasn't the onions!

There is magic in long-distance friendships. They let you relate to other human beings in a way that goes beyond being physically together and is often more profound.
