Machiavelli's "The Prince" in High Heels

I spent a good five minutes last night coming up with that title!

Think movie - can you tell which movie I saw last night at the second run theater?

That's right, The Devil Wears Prada. I liked it. I spent the whole movie wanting to punch the devil, Meryl Streep's character in the head. At some points I was led to believe that maybe she could be rehabilitated. I was left disappointed.

The movie was cliche and you knew Anne Hathaway's character would get sucked into everything and come around in the end.

Ultimately I was reminded how I am not interested in fashion at the top level...at least not the industry culture (and if you look at my pants, I probably don't look too interested in it at all). There was a good commentary defending the industry, discussing the color shade coming from one designer's piece trickling down to an awful knit sweater.

So I would say: Give it a Watch - Netflix
