Julie & Julia

I have fond memories of seeing footage of Julia Child's cooking show. She was one of those one-of-a-kind personalities that was just so engaging to watch. We saw Julie & Julia this weekend and Meryl Streep did an uncanny job of capturing Julie Child's essence not to mention the voice and look. I found myself smiling and laughing each time she was on film. I'm not sure there is a better actress working today. The awards and nominations for her body of work are well deserved. The movie was enjoyable, but I have to say, it's Streep that makes the movie as she has done so often in the past.
