Movie with a lot of to think about

Rating: 9/10 (5 April 2007)

Unfortunately this movie is doomed to stay underestimated both by critics and blind audience. Many will claim it as "shallow", others won't miss an opportunity to stick a label of cognation with other movies. In reality this movie has much more to deliver than an attempt to entertain a spectator with one more story of a "girl from suburbs" who is so charming/smart/loving that she has no other choice than to become eventually Cinderella. In my opinion this really good movie's main idea is that EVERY person that crosses our way comes in our life intentionally (may be to teach us something if we are smart enough to understand that). And that everyone (even one who looks so distant, arrogant and naughty at the first sight) can become a friend and guardian if you try to understand and care about that person. Some episodes (no wonder those with participation of amazing Meryl Streep) will probably never leave your memory ("I said myself - go ahead. Take a chance. Hire this smart, fat girl..." or the conversation in a car in Paris). The only role that actually left me a bit disappointed is that of Emily Blunt. She was a bit too much...
