Julie and Julia by Nora Ephron, 2009 (PG-13)

"In 1949, Julia Child is in Paris, the wife of a diplomat, wondering how to spend her days. She tries hat making, bridge, and then cooking lessons at Cordon Bleu. There she discovers her passion. In 2002, Julie Powell, about to turn 30 and underemployed with an unpublished novel, decides to cook her way through "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" in a year and to blog about it. We go back and forth between these stories of two women learning to cook and finding success. Sympathetic, loving husbands support them both, and friendships, too, add zest." IMDB
A refreshing comedy about cooking, American and French culture, and the conflict between making a living and living for our passion. A success story that probably makes me want to blog more.
Watch Trailer: (apologies for the ads, impossible to find one without)
