The Devil Wears Prada

I may be way behind the times but I finally saw "The Devil Wears Prada," based on the book by Lauren Weisberger. I LOVED IT! Meryl Streep is just wonderful in this movie and really makes you hate her, but strangely you love her at the same time.

I wish I'd read the book now. Well it's not too late. I actually prefer to see a movie first and then to read the book because the book seems so much better. If I read the book and then watch the movie I'm one of those people who doesn't think the movie did the book justice and I can't enjoy the movie completely. This way I'll enjoy the book and I'll picture Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep as the characters.

I have not seen any of the movies nominated this year, so I can't honestly say she deserved the Golden Globe in her actor category, however she is such a superb actress that she deserves it just for being her. I've loved her in a lot of roles. One of my all time favorite movies with her is "The Hours." I haven't seen that since it came out in 2002. I need to visit it again. That is a haunting movie.

One more thing about "The Devil Wears Prada." The clothes!! Oh my goodness! The clothes were to die for. If I was skinny and I could afford any clothes in the world I would get the wardrobes from: (don't laugh) Legally Blonde, The Devil Wears Prada, and some of the clothes on "Sex and the City."

Bueno, I have to take a shower and speaking of clothes, I need to figure out what I'm wearing to work tomorrow if it's going to be as cold as these past two days have been. I don't own any proper winter clothes since this is Houston, Texas where it never really gets this cold except for every 10 years or so.
