(Surround Sound 3) The Devil Wears Prada

Actors: Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt & Stanley Tucci

Synopsis: A naive young woman comes to New York and scores a job as the assistant to one of the city's biggest magazine editors, the ruthless and cynical Miranda Priestly.

My Comments (5/5): Base on a true story on Vogue editor, this film inspired the series "Ugly Betty", and a soon to come a Steven Spielberg movie and drama of the "World of High Fashion" starring supermodel Christy Turlington, on based twentysomething friends who work behind the scenes of the industry.

This movie shows the insides of a High Fashion Magazine, which I believed was inspired by 1994 (another 5/5 rating) Fashion Documentary Movie Prêt-à-Porter (Ready-to-Wear) starred various Designers, Models & many Well-Knowns. A clever touch to the influences of fashion. Thumbs up.
