THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA is the charming, at times edgy comedy-drama about a fresh young college grad from a small town who lands a seeming dream job in Manhattan as 2nd assistant to the imperious Editor-In-Chief of Runway fashion magazine. Unfortunately for her, and her sweet boyfriend, her boss boss snaps at her most of the time and is determined to either smarten and toughen her up or fire her. She finds allies - the boss's first assitant and the gay head stylist, who both try to help her. Eventually, she scores with the boss because she's smart, works hard, and brings needed honesty to the operation. The book was a runaway bestseller and Fox 2000 released his high-end film version on July 2, 2006. It starred Anne Hathaway as the young heroine, Meryl Street as her boos, Adrian Grenier (ENTOURAGE) as her boyfriend, and Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci as her helpful colleagues. It grossed a strong $124.7 million in North American, over a third of its big worldwide box office of $326..7 million. It was nominated for 2 Oscars, 5 BAFTAS and 3 Golden Globes. It's a perfect date movie and a real showcase for its stars.
