I watch it every time I come across it on HBO

Rating: 7/10 (4 October 2008)

I can't help watching this movie even though I wasn't interested in it when it came out. Meryl Streep was scary good. I was always on edge when she was on the screen.
The plot was too predictable. Small town girl succeeds in the big fashion magazine business but goes back to a smaller publishing job. I didn't care for her boyfriend and her other friends who selfishly wanted her to do something other than succeed at a new difficult job where she did, indeed, learn to produce impossible results. Miranda's recommendation at the end proved it but her friends were unsympathetic, unsupportive idiots.
The last scene of the movie where Meryl is sitting in the back seat of the car- IT'S MRS. DOUBTFIRE.
