Julie & Julia (2009)
Lovely appetiser
I loved this movie from the beginning to the end. Meryl is a fantastic actress and proves herself here as well. Although her voice is funny, the hairstyle does not suit her, but she can wear it:). I am not a big cook, but this movies put me in a mood to kind of start cooking and pay attention to detail. Both husbands are great characters: supporting, patient, but still give the impression, that they are wearing the trousers:). I would love to read the book as well. The scenery is lovely, shows the real atmosphere in Paris. I like the fact, that even my grandma can watch it as it does not have rude jokes or slang language. Congratulations on acting.
The Countess (2009)
A piece of art, but not true to Hungary
Very interesting plot. I love historical movies. I was really excited when I found out, that there is a movie about a Hungarian countess. As I am Hungarian i was really looking forward to watching it.Bit disappointing. At least if you make a movie try and be true to the country you are showing. Pronunciation of the names if terrible. The characters were not even similar to Hungarians. So basically if I didn't know she was Hungarian, I wouldn't even have recognised the place or country it related to. Apart from that, the story is unusual, the movie is an art. But if you watch it, do not think this is the real 17th century in Hungary:).
