Julie and Julia

You are probably wondering why a guy is posting about a semi-chicflic, but this movie was really good! It's not often one comes across such as an inspirational movie as this. I wouldn't label this as a chicflic because it is really about cooking with a dash(Pun) romance in it.
I saw the movie and it was great. I really do like the idea of making more of your life by learning a new trade or skill and challenging yourself to do it. And in doing this Julie was able to learn more about Julia Childs. It also teaches that when things are not going that great, to keep on moving and cooking as it showed in the movie.
The movie was also hillarious! It's a lot more funny than many other movies I've seen recently and that comedy was not the main focus in this one.
I also like that this movie showed two different stories that alternate scenes as other movies have done in the past. You get to see Julia Childs in France learning to be a great cook by taking this classes while in the other Julie writing a blog about cooking these foods from Julia's cookbook.
What I really like about this movie is that it is about realife people and that this actually happened.
So if anyone else has seen this movie, please post because I want to know your thought as well.
