“ The bitter anger of a lone chef-writer? Hardly; other food bloggers quickly agreed. “Thank you, Virginia for… bravely expressing your frustrations,” wrote one. Another: “Great post.” Another: “A very well written article about something which, despite being an amateur food blogger myself, does frustrate me to no end.” One blogger, after watching only a trailer, said Child “deserves more than being the other half to a Nora Ephron-penned romcom about a ‘lowly cubicle worker’ who blogs and struggles and cries and gets a book deal.” Oh, plus also, Child thought Powell was a mere stunt artist! A clown, really! What a gleeful thing, to be able to report.

Prissy Food Bloggers Hate Food Blogger Movie - Alice Waters - Gawker
We caught the trailer for “Julie and Julia” the other day when we went to see “(500) Days of Summer” (which is really good, but even though I loves me some Zooey Deschanel, I have to say Joseph Gordon-Levitt carries the movie so effortlessly you don’t even realize at the time he’s doing it, because her role is, as A.O. Scott said, paper thin). Kate leaned over when the trailer was done and said, “wait until the DVD comes out and fast forward through the modern parts.” You can see the Nora Ephron bones of the movie even from the trailer, but it does appear that Meryl Streep is completely awesome despite that. At least in the trailer.
