Julie & Julia

2009 · TMDB 6.7

Directed by Nora Ephron

Julia Child and Julie Powell – both of whom wrote memoirs – find their lives intertwined. Though separated by time and space, both women are at loose ends... until they discover that with the right combination of passion, fearlessness and butter, anything is possible.

Why it matters

A young New Yorker cooks her way through Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking, while the film interweaves Child's own early years in Paris.
