I’ve seen this movie about 20 times. You two should also check out another Anne Hathaway movie called The Intern with Robert Deniro.

I love this movie and really enjoyed your reaction to it. If you're ever in the mood to watch another "Chick-Flick" with a stellar Stanley Tucci performance, I recommend Easy A with Emma Stone.

Miranda needs about 25 assistants working in shifts, but then it would probably be much harder to get them to fight each other and ignore all her horrible abuse, mood swings, blatant manipulation, lack of boundaries and unceasing impossible demands. It works better for her to just have two at a time and not have to treat them like human beings and wear out what sounds like maybe five of them per year on average. What a terrible person.

I love this movie, even though I think Andy's friends and boyfriend are frequently wildly unfair to her. The Harry Potter thing has always bugged me, though. I was heavy into the fandom at the time this came out and following all of the book news. And Mary Grandpre (the illustrator for the American versions) would never have given up a manuscript like that. If she was working on the illustrations for the latest book, she couldn't even let her husband know it was in the house. I know it's a minor thing and it makes for a great miraculous save, but I'm always thinking "yeah, that never would have happened."

Yeah it was a bit of a stretch, it was really fun sequence though. I agree, and I understand the frustration. The only time I thought it was justified was in the art gallery.

Thinking that was Morena Baccarin... Guess you're not browncoats yet. Time to put Firefly on your watch list! (14 episodes and a movie, but check the correct order to watch as the release on tv was botched). Also a fun fact, when John Krasinski went to pick up Emily Blunt for their first date, she asked Meryl Streep to open the door and grill him, I can't imagine something more terrifying.

Loved it as a teenager and still love it to this day. Not the perfect movie, but it's really really good. I just love 2000s romcoms/chick flicks. They don't do this kind of movies anymore (at least not this quality). I remember all the greats like Legally blonde, Miss Congeniality, 27 dresses, The Holiday, Bride Wars..etc. Great stories, great messages, great acting ♥️

I actually never liked her boyfriend and friends. Andrea didn't become an awful person she just had a really hard job. I think anyone is allowed to change, have new preferences or hobbies. Doesn't matter if she was into fashion or became a vegetarian. It seemed like she really enjoyed fashion and I don't understand how can you be unsupportive of your friend's passion. What if she was a doctor or a lawyer who also didn't have time much free time? It felt like they just didn't like her being successful at her job.

I don't consider Miranda a monster. She is not nice, she's not your friend, she's demanding and she is just there to do her job. I would have never worked for her (or any stressful job for that matter) but as a boss I don't see her especially awful. She is not yelling at anyone, she doesn't sexually harass anyone or goes out of her way to hurt anyone. She is an iron lady who runs a tight ship and occasionally has impossible expectations, that's all. Like Andy said, if she was a man everybody would have sang her praises. Anyone has a choice not to work there. Even what she did to Nigel wasn't malicious in any way. He's just not getting a promotion she found for him in the first place because she chose herself. It would have been the same for her if Nigel was a stranger to her. Just shows she is not your friend and never will be but that's not a secret or something she hides. The only people who matter to her are her girls and I don't think that it makes her a monster.

Fun facts about the movie: - Lauren Weisberger wrote her book after she herself was Anna Wintour's assistant at American Vogue. - Though several fashion brands refused to appear in this satire of American Vogue to avoid displeasing Anna Wintour, others had confidence in costume designer Patricia Field to enhance their designs. Patricia Field, who worked on Sex and the City, was responsible for costume design. Most of the costumes (except that hat) have lost none of their excellence, despite the 18 years since the film's release. - The Devil Wears Prada's wardrobe one of the most expensive in movie history - almost 1 million dollars - While working on the film on the set, there was constant fear of the legendary Anna Wintour. The filmmakers approached a variety of fashion designers, but they all refused the offer to appear on screen. Only Valentino Garavani, Heidi Klum and Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen appeared on screen. - As for Miranda's office, it was recreated by production designer Jess Gonchor, and directly inspired by Anna Wintour's. Jess even sneaked into the Vogue editorial office to take a sneak peek at editor-in-chief's office. It is alleged that after the film was released, Wintour demanded that her office be renovated. - Anna Wintour —who attended the premiere dressed in Prada — told that she liked the movie, adding, “anything that makes fashion entertaining and glamorous and interesting is wonderful for our industry. So, I was 100 percent behind it.”

Have you seen The Holdovers? This year Oscar nominee

Henrique Jambu

This was so great! It's funny that I mainly think of Emily Blunt as the Emily in this movie, so to me it's strange seeing her playing nice characters haha

Henrique Jambu

Only cameo I know is Gisele Bundchen (the one making fun of Andy with Emily), she's a Brazilian supermodel. I remember reading that they wanted to give her a bigger role but she just wanted to do this bit part

I think they’ve said a few times before that a sequel wouldn’t happen; however, they did just create a musical version that premiered in Chicago and is just about to open in London starring Vanessa Williams with music by Elton John!

I'd watch the crap out of it. The musical. I don't know if a sequel would be any good. Kinda surprising they haven't pursued one with how popular the first one is.

It did feel that way at times. Almost like they didn't get it. Mad that she didn't have time for them anymore.

She can be a bit much. I think it's all about context. If she wasn't working at that level and she was just managing a store somewhere, everyone would agree. Since it is such high level and they are literally setting the bar, I get why she behaves that way. No one has to be there but they want to be.

Emily Blunt was nominated for a golden globe for this performance. She was in contention for an Oscar nomination, but just missed out.

That was not Morena Baccarin. The actress is Stephanie Szostak that portrayed Jacqueline. She was one super soldiers in Iron Man 3.

aww - such a tiny detail that's not essential to the plot, but the name check of the oak room (in boston) still makes me smile. my now-husband and i celebrated our first dating anniversary there. we had an amazing soup that we STILL talk about 18.5 years later. the thing with the friends is . . . people are entitled to feel how they do about a situation, and can decide what THEY want to do about it in light of their feelings - but from a rational perspective (feelings aside), i think they were a bit unfair to andy. yes, she chose to take the job, because it was a gateway to the career she actually wanted - putting in a couple years of hard time at miranda's beck and call would open a lot of doors for her. and she also chose to do the job, even when it required sacrifices in her personal life and meant she couldn't be as good a friend or girlfriend. her friends and boyfriend are welcome to decide that it's not going to work for them and step back from the relationship, or put in less effort to keep it going when she can't reciprocate. but acting like she's the asshole for answering miranda's call or leaving a dinner to satisfy yet another impossible demand - when they know she took this job for a short term to advance her career, and they should know she's not exactly thrilled to be leaving or missing an event with them to do whatever ridiculous thing miranda wants - seems crappy. (i may be overly identifying with andy here - for four years i worked full time during the day and went to law school at night. for two of those four years, i worked on my school's journal, and in the first of those two years working on the journal, i also had to write my own article. so, i really didn't have much time to spend with my friends and boyfriend for a while - and when i did manage to see them, they often had to work around my schedule. i know i disappointed people at times and they were occasionally annoyed with me about it - but overall, they were very understanding and encouraging.)

As someone who works full time and does this channel with you lovely people :), I totally relate with Andy. There's just not enough time in the day. Her friends aren't being totally fair with her and after being pushed to the max like that, She deserves time for herself and not to mention support.

Emma Rosen

The screenplay for this movie was written by our gal Aline Brosh McKenna, co-creator of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend!

Roland Cooke

The movie's producer approached Meryl Streep for the part of not-Anna Wintour. His pitch: "It takes a legend to play a legend".

I feel like this movie is now legendary in its own right. I've heard this movie referenced so many times before seeing it.
