And so it is unavoidable that whatever Anne wears will be from some fashion industry trend cycle. She gets to an intersection I saw it during my annual oscar season watchlist when I see all the award nominated films. The one line that encapsulates Miranda for me was: "Florals? Batman feels written for Bale, but Bale became Patrick Bateman. [–]Gettingbetterthrow 15 points16 points17 points 5 months ago (3 children), The part that irritates me about this scene is how self-important it all is. Don't you know that you are working at the place that published some of the greatest artists of the century? Also I thought she was a bitch but I felt bad for her because working for the magazine was a big dream of hers and she loves fashion, only to be outshined by some dork who could give two shits about the industry or the magazine. Loved the picture! I watched it on a plane ride from Portland to Minneapolis a few years ago while crammed into the middle seat between two large men. I borrowed a friend's copy one day after school and watched it in front of her. [–]nhaines 24 points25 points26 points 5 months ago (0 children). I think it is often testament to great actors (of which Anne Hathaway clearly is in my opinion) when they allow those around them to shine. No thanks, there is such as thing as too much cheese. The Devil Wears Prada script is a masterclass on character and stakes. on the return trip everyone, including the guys, wanted the movie to be put back on so we could finish it. Sure fashion trickles down from haute couture to pret-a-porter to discount but there’s not much of a thought process involved. There's nothing new under the sun, after all. If you ask me, Streep deserved an Oscar for this much more than for Iron Lady which I found to be very 'award baity'.

Anyway, that movie made me gay. Lastly, it's also a productivity thing. There is nothing about the job in the movie - including the scene in the OP - that isn't toxic. This speech 9s horseshit. I used to completely discount the impact that dressing nicely had on myself even without accounting for other people’s reactions to my outfit. This is a lovely fantasy devoid of all real-world nuance. A good meal lasts an evening, a good outfit can last for years. ModernGurlz also did a great video essay about how the costume designer used fashion/ styling for certain characters.

Miranda Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada is the kind of boss everyone dreads being lumbered with; she's cold, cutting, brutally honest and has … Hathaway's character regards fashion as essentially a self-important hobby rather than lofty artistry. Especially the parents. Meryl Streep, in The Devil Wears Prada, picked it as her weapon of choice in the film’s most withering monologue. If I make a five star meal and then leave it on the porch for the next year, I can't suddenly claim "oh look a bear is eating my five star meal!

You could make the exact same argument about any trend in anything and turn it around on her. It is a pretty good movie—about as good as formulaic "romantic-comedies" get really. A general rule of thumb is also that one page of screenplay is about 1 minute of screen time. Creativity is so rare that I'm not even sure it exists at all in the sense you're alluding to (yes, I got it it's joke and quote, let me have this).

I was volunteering at an organization I was dying to work at, only to find out someone who got a job I'd interviewed for, only took it because he needed something to stay busy. In the book, he was a teacher, maybe even a Teach For America or NYC Teaching Fellows teacher (they teach all day while earning teaching degrees from night & summer classes), so there it made a bit more sense when he was questioning her priorities....but I was a NYC Teaching Fellow and even to me, Book Nate came off as judgey. Feels like something a weapons manufacturer would say. She's trying to prove the point that everyone is affected by the fashion industry, but if Hathaway's character genuinley bought it and put it on because she's trying to show she takes herself "too seriously to care", what in Streep's monologue goes against that?

A screenwriter is going to be able to get more across to the crew (and producers) if they allow them to use their own imagination for how it should look and flow in the final product. I won't say she's lucky for getting Miranda's recommendation even after that because she clearly impressed Miranda, but she's still lucky in some way that it worked out for her. Thank you, that always bugged me. Feel sorry for Anne Hathaway. Miranda's picking on you. I get the gist of her argument ("You think it's blue, but it was an important decision made by lots of people") but not her tone/conclusion (That shade of blue is important because a bunch of people made that decision). The Devil Wears Prada centers on 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.

GUARD Honey, you want West 57th. For spring? It's a general rule of thumb that screenplays shouldn't be filled with more detail than is necessary to get across what's happening in the scene. I’ve always loved the film The Devil Wears Prada (2006), production designed beautifully by Jess Gonchor, and starring Meryl Streep as an Anna Wintour type with Anne Hathaway as her fledgling temp assistant. As a guy with no fashion sense beyond having a brand or two I always feel comfortable in, that was a fascinating watch. You have no idea how many legends have walked these halls. My mum rented it from the library probably around a year after the film was in theaters? I see, you think this has nothing to do with you. Totally disagree; the only thing is did was re-affirm how self-important the fashion industry is simply because it’s important to itself.

One of my best friends put it simply to me one time that most if not all art is (or should be) intended to elicit an emotion. If you don't care about other people you can prioritize this kind of stuff. It’s sort of a naive innocence that Andy has sacrificed taking the job full on. I’ve always loved this lesson tho: When you’re at the top of your industry, making decisions that millions will see, and costing equally as much to produce, every detail matters.

Challenge number one for Elizabeth Gabler , the production manager: focus the movie on the relationship between Andrea and Miranda , and reinvent the third act, quite different from the book's ending.

There's only a handful of story types to tell, a small number of dimensions we exist in, a set range of colors we can see, a discreet range of sound we can hear, and only so many flavors our buds can taste. Streep's style is so effectively casual that it doesn't even seem like it was scripted or rehearsed at all, she performs it as if she's just making a passing comment while working on the dress.
