In the film, Julie is driven crazy by sustaining complaint hotlines at work; she cried, but sits silently in her small cubicle. That scene reminds me of the moment I was in a mess and feel hopeless. Other than cooking itself, in Julie’s process of imitating Julia, the movie leads us to some serious points: how to face life and what the more important thing is than just fulfilling your dream. Passion and persistence for cooking, and love from others, these are what Julie possesses but tends to ignore in process of carrying out her project. Sometimes we are so concentrated on result, being blind to joy in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. As a result, we forget to love; love the things you’re doing and love people in your life.
Besides,“Julie and Julia” uses warm colored pictures and lovely background music with a dash of nostalgia to convey to us the love of life. Like what Paul says to Julia: “You are the butter to my bread, the breath to my life”, the love between two protagonists and their husbands is heart-warming.
