I recently discovered my hobbies of going to imdb to watch trivia (trivial truths about movies and filming, that is, gossip) and goof (wearing gang) after watching a movie.
This time imdb's FAQ gave the answers to my 2 questions. It seems that many people have the same questions
. Regarding the height issue, there is no suspense. It is to trick the audience's eyes with the tricks of the camera lens, so that Streep, who is 5 feet 6 inches (about 168 cm), looks closer to Julia, who is 6 feet 2 inches (about 188 cm). Plus the super shoes. And under the Goof category, someone pointed out that in a dance scene, Julia looks a little shorter than her husband (it should be a little taller).
As for Julia's opinion on Julie's blog and her 1-year project, imdb The first 3 answers
are Julie's own statement. She expresses her admiration and love for Julia, and then she thinks that Julia is not interested in her blog, not angry. And said that I have read that although Julia has not read her blog, I heard that she is often rude - this is a kind of disrespect and ridicule for Julia's extremely beloved thing (cooking). Her opinion is actually reflected in the film.
The second answer came from Julia's long-term friend and a publisher of Knopf. According to her, Julia thinks Julie doesn't really take cooking seriously and isn't serious enough. The so-called one-year project seems to be nothing more than acrobatic performances, lacking sincerity. The foul language in the text also makes people frown. Julia does not want to support such behavior. Julie also doesn't really describe how the cooking turned out, how delicious it was, what she learned by herself, etc.
Regarding this, I think that the Goof category of imdb also pointed out several obvious mistakes when Julie implemented the recipe. For example, using the wrong red wine, and not crushing the spice leaves according to the recipe. Guess the creator of the film may also want to express Julie's insincerity, or the deviation of his motives. The
third answer is provided by an ordinary netizen. He/she thinks that Julie should inform Julia of her plan before starting, and appropriately express her admiration and love for Julia. Julie's behavior was considered rude to the netizen. It is also a question in the context of this era - the second answer actually mentioned
two other trivias of the generation gap: 1) In the early days of the film, Julia went to a bridge class. The role of the teacher is actually Julia's grandniece in real life 2) Streep weighed 15 pounds (about 6.8 kg) during the filming of this film. The
last two senseless perceptions: 1) Julia's voice is very uncomfortable to listen to 2) Julia She looks like Aunt Susan from the British talent show. Probably because they are all typical middle-aged women, with square faces, short curly hair, and a somewhat careless attitude.
