The Devil Wears Prada [DVD] [2006]

This is a great film, everyone in it is excellent and it is so funny in places. Meyrl Streep is amazing in the part of Milan da Priestly. It is well worth a watch

Great movie, worth a watch. Recommended

ACTING: This is a great film because of the superb acting by Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt and Anne Hathaway in that order. WARDROBE: You'd expect a movie set in the fashion industry to stand out in terms of wear. The devils wears Prada does not disappoint. The wardrobe is notable but for me it was the shoes, more particularly those wore by Meryl Streep, especially the first ones she is seen in (inca red suede Azzedine Alaïa pumps) (it is almost the first thing of her that is seen as she comes out the car): practical but extremely elegant. The way that they are showcased is also notable, with it defining the first sight of Miranda, showcasing the transformation of Andrea and differentiating people in fashion from people not in it, as well as the hierarchy within the fashion industry. FRIENDSHIPS and ROMCOM: This is a comedy, and it has some "romance" but this is NOT a romcom. The boyfriend is unsupportive, the friends are ok when the lead's job gets them free expensive items and less so when it requires her to work on "special days". The person who suffers the most about this extra work is the lead and her so-called friends judge and blackmail her into the change that is convenient to them rather than trust that she will make her own mind and decision. There is no empathy at all, no understanding, no support. It is a travestie that she returns to that boyfriend to be honest or that she does not have a go at them. These are friends that will let you grow as long as it does not inconvenience them: so NOT friends. SCRIPT: To be honest, the script is average. It is not bad obviously and I have nothing burning against it. It is just again that what lifts it up is having excellent actors enacting it. Those 3 leading females (and equally Stanley Tucci) are just amazing. Overall, quite a great movie because of the acting and the fashion visual. Meryl Streep is a great villain. There are quite a lot of bullying and blackmailing in the movie, from friends to foe but Miranda is the bully in chief. This made me realise that to a certain extent, even beyond her pale complexion and dark hair, Andrea is really Snow White. She stays with the evil queen and while she recognises the bad, she comes to love and respect her but decides that she does not want to be that person just because of those feelings. I love that she "protects" and "defends" her by the end but still choses to leave her, able thereby to make a difference between liking a person and having to put up with them. It is a shame that she did not chose to do the same for her "boyfriend". It almost cancels the moral of her story. But I guess she went for the least evil and the devil she knew.

Fab movie, can’t believe it took me this long to g to watch it!

Muy bien y llego rápido

Es una película que me encanta y a un muy buen precio. Llego en tiempo y forma tal cual se había acordado, el único inconveniente es que la portada tiene una calidad pésima incluso se podría pensar que es chafa por ese detalle
