I saw Devil Wears Prada twice in one week. Sorry, three times. I went again tonight because Boston has died. Does that say enough? haha, I thought it was absolutely hysterical, both times. It is the feel good movie of the summer. I got chills when Jump and Here I Am were played. For real, chills! Meryl Streep gave such an awesome performance that my friends are now trying to imitate her. In “The Devil Wears Prada,” Meryl Streep, as the invincible New York
fashion editor Miranda Priestly, never raises her voice. To snarl or
shout would imply that some resistance to her authority exists, and
none does. In the most matter-of-fact way, Miranda has reduced her
staff to a state of hyperventilating fear. (I want a job where a car picks me up every morning and takes me to fabulous places where I just purse my lips or make faces and people understand and run around helplessly.) Stanley Tucci's character was also hysterical especially when he caught Andrea, the main actress, eating corn chowder. He quickly insulted her with, "Isn't corn chowder made from cellulite?" Andrea running around town in a town car getting perfect latte's, carrying designer bags, obsessing over her cell, meeting friends in a lil corner restaurant, and then ending up in her super cute EastVillage apt is so adorable and desirable. Though, I really don't envy her job at all, just the perks but for those who know me that is very me.
OhLaLa seemed to bitch about it not having any gay content, which is sorta true since there is no direct male kissing or fucking, but lets be serious people .. the entire movie is a fuckin gay film. I am sorta mega tired of homo's picking out how certain films have no gay content in them or better still scrutinizing a movie to create any gay metaphor possible, like XmenIII. Like, who the fuck cares? Every time I saw the movie it was packed with girls and homo's. Gays are getting married and Pride parade attendances are dwindling. The orgies in the back of trucks in the Meatpacking District are now long ago, and trashy yet fun bathhouses are closing up shop faster than carb packed donut shops. Gay world is becoming incredibly boring mainstream and as soon as Bush gets nuked by N. Korea, beefy blond boys will be pushing strollers outside of their white picket fence luxury condos. Yawn, this movie is about the fashion industry for christsake, isn't that enough?
I enjoyed that movie a lot, well i love Meryl thats why, but i thought it was a fun flick, most of the people at the advanced screening were WOMEN and some gay guys, i thought the movie was gay enough- i wasnt expecting it to be so gay anyways, so yeah , i know what you mean. Gays r overrated! hehe- i love the sense of humor in the movie- dry- sarcastic, :)
you seen it 3 times? :) oh boy.....
haha
