”Book Andy gets tortured by the devil, film Andy makes a deal with the devil” not to be dramatic but WOAAAHHHH
-
It seems the film is better and more nuanced than the book - a rare occurrence, especially when it comes to Hollywood.
-
Nigel as a character is much more tragic when you realize it's a stand in for Andre Leon Talley. Who was famously dumped from Vogue years later in the mid 2010s by Wintour :(
-
I always loved that scene because she just said "No." and everyone changed what they were doing. No excuses, no explanations, no fake positivity, no false praise to pet egos. It was against everything I had internalized as needed for women in the corporate world. It was amazing and eye-opening and the scene that cemented her power for me.
-
For me, the best part of this movie is this Andy's quote: "Okay, she’s tough, but if Miranda were a man…no one would notice anything about her, except how great she is at her job"
-
We all have to agree that Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci really stole every scenes they were in
-
My favorite scene, hands down, is the very last - where Miranda smiles ruefully for a split second after seeing Andy wave to her, then snaps right back into character. Meryl Streep deserved an Oscar purely for the expression on her face as she utters: "Go."
-
“I need the best possible team around me, that no longer includes Emily.” — she says in her monotone voice. This in my opinion is the first time we see how cut throat Miranda can really be. I felt that betrayal in my bones as if a was Emily. Imagine putting your all, everyday into your dream job and you end up loosing your bosses respect and the event you’ve been planing for all year because you get mono? She’s ruthless
-
Ultimately, the book has an antagonist who is not respectable, but the movie has an antagonist that is. Having an antagonist who is respectable almost always elevate the protagonist as well.
-
Oh the irony of how the author of the book wrote it to say how toxic and how much she despises the business of fashion. And then this movie has audiences loving Miranda Priestley, and hating the boyfriend and Andy's friends instead. Wah-wah...
-
Fact check: "Ugly Betty" cannot have been "inspired" or a "copycat" of "The Devil Wears Prada". Ugly Betty one is based on the original Colombian tv series with the same name produced in 1999. The Devil wears Prada (the book, from which the movie is based on) was published in 2003.
-
I always interpreted this movie as being about a tough woman who has hidden vulnerability, and a vulnerable woman who has hidden toughness. It's a yin and yang story, and it's far more sophisticated in it's character development than people give it credit for. Well done review.
-
For someone that never cared for the fashion industry at all. This film is a masterpiece.
-
“you already did...to Emily” - so sinister. Meryl made this movie
-
Miranda s hair is definitely almost a character in itself. absolutely flawless. yes, you always see her.
-
I really love this thing that you said: "Book Andy is tortured by the devil. Film Andy makes a deal with her."
-
The original line, "Everybody wants this, everybody wants to be us." was originally written as, "Everybody want this, everybody wants to be me" because Streep felt Miranda wasn't that vain. It was brilliant. The film would have been interpreted different had this line not changed.
-
The fact that people are still analyzing and talking about this movie 15 years later, and that people are actively and happily still watching these, shows how iconic this movie is. One of my favorites, even my dad loves the cerulean sweater scene, and will stop to watch the movie on any channel if he sees it’s on.
-
The glass wall of the conference room always struck me and I wound up noticing all the glass throughout the film. You can see it (the life, the work), but you're still outside it. Andy wasn't ready for entry into that room. Emily wasn't either, and, in fact, sullied it.
-
You know Meryl is good when you see Miranda Priestly as a totally different person. Like she exists.
