Default Julia/Julie opens in Italy

Not generally, however, but at the Rome film festival.

So what did the Italians have to say about the movie? Lots of praise for
Streep, who is a beloved icon of American film, although most of them have
never heard her voice, since movies are dubbed here. A clip showing her
fluting as Julia this morning will probably stun the typical Italian
filmgoer, because dubbers often sound just like the original (without
Streep's famous accents, of course.)

The film itself was described this morning as "standard Hollywood cute
story" and that could be true since of course they wanted it to go beyond
the cookery world. I haven't seen it, and it will probably never get
anywhere near me.
