The Devil Wears Prada

The Devil Wears Prada (2006) is both comedy and drama film directed by David Frankel. In leading roles of the film are Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway) and Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep).

The movie tells about a young girl called Andy Sachs. She is a journalist who got the second assistant job in New York’s the most biggest fashion magazine, Runway. Miranda Priestly is stylish Runway’s editor in chief who demand the impossible from her employees. Andy’s assistant job in Runway takes a lot of time and it is very challenging. Her phone rings continuously and that’s why her relationship between boyfriend suffer. Later in the movie when Andy’s private life is almost broken she succeed in her job and get promoted.

When I watched the movie I thought that it was a beautiful story of young girl who wanted to be great journalist in New York City. Even though the end of movie surprised me I think that the movie is all in all successful.

In my opinion Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep are both great actors and they fit in their leading roles very well because their characters are believable. Also the other actors of the movie fit to their role perfectly.

I think that Anne Hathaway’s character Andy change a little bit when she started assistant job in Runway because before assistant job Andy was a young girl who didn’t follow fashion and she wore horrible clothes. But later when she worked in Runway she started to use trendy clothes and follow fashion.

The end of the movie was interesting because there happened surprising scene when everything turned out for the best. In my opinion the movie’s camerawork and script were wonderful. The movie includes a lot of well-known actors who perform in different scenes. All in all the movie was action-packed, funny and compelling. I like this movie a lot and it is absolutely worth watching.
