good funny film

Rating: 7/10 (15 December 2006)

The Devil Wears Prada is about a fierce managing editor that hires a fresh faced assistant into indentured servitude and verbally whips everyone around her. At first the assistant resists the peer pressure to conform to the subculture of the taffeta worshipers in a niche society of fashion demigods, but then succumbs and makes a go of the fashion industry as a profession. Great acting takes a predictable dialog and story into the realm of good comedy. I would have flipped off the devil woman and told her to find a real job after the first 10 minutes of her outrageous diatribes. A technically good film and worth a watch because of the acting.
