      I've been trying to view this for 2 days but I keep getting the message of 'video unavailable while we migrate servers'. Is my timing just so perfect/imperfect that I continue to request it at such times. I'd love to watch it.

      Amy Adams out Meryled Meryl. She upstaged her like the refreshing upstart that she is.

      Meryl Streep looks absolutely fabulous.

      At age 60 she hardly looks as though she has

      aged a day over the last 30 years. Here face

      looks so fresh and so youthful.

      Meryl exemplifies what many in the life extension

      field call "squaring the longevity curve".

      If Americans at large took care of themselves the

      way Meryl Streep has taken care of herself this country

      would not have a health care crises.

      It would be interesting to have Meryl come back and

      talk about her views on aging and health and its relation

      to the art of fine cuisine. Doubtless the secrets to her ageless beauty extend well beyond her passion and enthusiasm for organic produce. We all have a great deal to learn from Meryl's example.

      I don't cook; that's why I admire people who, number one - LOVE to cook, and number two - are exceptional at it (especially if they are women). Which is why I like Julia Child (reminds me a bit of my sweet grandma). I also like the young hot ladies (in their tight sweaters and shirts and how they moan when tasting their food) who cook on the other PBS cooking shows (for different reasons). Also, the Test Kitchen, those two blonds and how they describe the science behind their methodology (beauty and brains and good food, it doesn't get better). .. Women cooking is right up their with female tennis.

      Mr. Mant, on the subject of the movie of Norm and Bob Villa, I hope they include the episode where Norm tells Bob that he's going put him in the concrete mix when they pour the footers if he doesn't pay up. That one was a REAL classic.

      Some years ago this film might have been a B-class TV movie (starring, probably, Cheryl Ladd, height notwithstanding), if, indeed, Julia could have been compared with Grace Kelly in the public mind, which is a stretch. So why it's been made into a feature film is beyond me, even in this age of remakes and Machiavelian survivors. Unlike Richard Nixon, the real Julia can still be seen on TV. Nearly everyone knows the story of her life. I own the original pair of cookbooks, and The French Chef Cookbook, plus a couple more. I saw the original shows, too, when they aired in Boston, and many of the subsequent series, and I can tell you that Meryl Streep is no Julia Child. Indeed, as usual she looks like Meryl Streep play-acting. But why in God's name is she trying to be a Julia Child clone in the first place? What is the point? I suppose this all would never have got off the ground without the blogger who burned and scalded her way thru those tomes, but, of course, it should be mentioned in this connection, that Julia was a late comer to that effort, which began with Simone Beck and Louisette Bertholle, and her role was primarily to Americanize it for sale here. Much more interesting was Julia's own relation of her clumsiness at Le Cordon Bleu, which was certainly still evident years later on TV. Quite frankly, I don't think she was a very good cook, at least in those days, and she tried to Americanize far too much. But anyway, what will be next, a movie about Bob Vila and Norm Abram?

      I am disappointed that Mr. Rose did not include Amy Adams when he discussed the movie <i>Julie & Julia</i>. Perhaps there was a reason and I missed hearing a reason being given. The movie really is about Julie's experiences. Unfortunately advertising and press coverage have focused on Julia Child and Meryl Streep. Amy Adams and her character should be given more attention.
