Juxtaposes the difficulties faced by two women with similar interests who lived in different times and places. The younger one draws on the experience of the older to make sense--and some measure of success--of her own life. The act of re-creating the recipes in the famous cookbook as faithfully as possible, within a limited time frame, provides not only a challenge to the woman in the modern era, but also the link with the older woman who originally created the recipes. A thoroughly charming premise, and enjoyable performances.
it was so amazing i saw it 7 times
I really enjoyed the movie. I thought Meryl was excellent and funny. If you don't love food or the kitchen, don't even try to go...Simple and charming, nothing unreal. The european touch is my favourite I am from there...but I have a but too long I agree.Don't go hungry!
This movie was amazing!!!! I thought it would of been super boring but I loved it! The only thing wrong with it was that it was so long
delightful to watch.
THIS WAS ONE OF THE MOST BORING MOVIES THAT I EVER SAW. I ACTUALLY LOOKED AT MY WATCHED WONDERNG WHEN THE DAMN THING WAS GOING TO BE OVER. IT WAS PAINFUL, BORING, BORING, BORING
Outstanding! Amy Adams holds her own against the as-usual-powerful performance of Meryl Streep.
VERY PAINFUL....2 hours of my life I will not get back.
Meryl is flawless as usual and the movie is fun and light. Very refreshing!
Loved it and I am not a fan of chick flix. but it was great and broke my heart!!
