Hell On HeelsA coming of age tale for all fashionistas. Anne Hathaway ( Becoming Jane, Brokeback Mountain ) stars as Andy (Andrea) Sachs, a ‘plain Jane’ student fresh from college who has a dream to become a journalist in New York. Having applied for numerous positions, she ends up at a publishing house HR department, being offered interviews for a computer magazine and 'Runway' - THE fashion magazine of New York.
After an 'interesting' interview Andy is taken on as the second assistant to the editor in chief, however she soon learns that not only is she in for a very bumpy ride, she won't be using her journalistic skills. So starts the seamlessly impossible task of keeping Amanda Priestley's ( Meryl Streep ) world ticking over like clockwork. With the inevitable hickups Andy soon decides that she needs to swap the plain image for a more elegant and glamorous style if she is to gain the respect of her boss and peers.
So commences the life that every PA dreads, being at the constant beck and call of the most demanding boss (EVER). Andy knows nothing about fashion and has never even read 'Runway' magazine, but firmly believes that a year working for Amanda Priestley will land her any journalistic position she could want.... if she can stick it out.
With all the demands put upon her professionally something has got to give and it's Andy's boyfriend Nathe and her friends.
Eventually, Andy starts to become more efficient than Emily ( Emily Blunt ) the first assistant to Amanda Priestley and following an unfortunate stream of events replaces Emily as Amanda's assistant at the Paris fashion week. So comes the crunch for Andy, does she stay working for Amanda or does she pursue her dream of becoming a serious journalist..... and what about Nathe?
Not quite on the lines of Ugly Betty, this is more of a Working Girl ( Melanie Griffith ) movie for the new millennium. With a fantastic performance by virtual newcomer Emily Blunt, the movie has the right level of high and low moments mixed in with downright hilarity.
Great to curl up on the sofa with... and don't forget your chocs.
DO you remember your first job? How you flounced in thinking you knew everything, only to learn in a few, crushing moments that you actually knew nothing? In this delicious send-up of the fashion industry, poor old Anne Hathaway embarks on the steepest of learning curves after landing a job working for the ultimate boss from hell. And The Devil Wears Prada could be the year’s best satire, the kind of film to make you laugh and cringe at the same time.
Hathaway, best known for The Princess Diaries, plays recent graduate Andy whose first job is working as a PA for the editor of style magazine Runway. It’s the kind of job a million girls would kill for – and the job almost ends up killing Andy thanks to the impossible demands of her iron-fisted boss Miranda (Meryl Streep).
Unfortunately, the poor girl doesn’t know her Dolces from her Gabbanas while her clothes look as if they’ve come from a thrift store. Giving her frumpy outfit the once over, fellow employee Nigel (Stanley Tucci) caustically remarks, “Are we doing a before-and-after piece?”
AdvertisementYou can’t help but wince as the poor girl is systematically belittled by Miranda’s acidic putdowns while her fellow assistant Emily (Emily Blunt) is only interested in becoming a size zero (“When I feel like I’m about to faint, I eat a cube of cheese”).
Streep is simply awesome as the dragon in Gucci, but manages to imbue her character with tragedy as, later in the film, it emerges the terrible price she’s paid for her success. Comedy doesn’t get much blacker – or more brilliant – than this.

Randle Patrick McMurphy (Nicholson), a criminal who has been sentenced to a fairly short prison term, decides to have himself declared insane so he'll be transferred to a mental institution, where he expects to serve the rest of his term in (comparative) comfort and luxury.His ward in the mental institution is run by an unyielding tyrant, Nurse Ratched (Fletcher), who has cowed the patientsmost of whom are there by choiceinto dejected institutionalized submission. McMurphy becomes ensnared in a number of power games with Nurse Ratched for the hearts and minds of the patients. All the time, however, the question is just how sane any of the players in the ward actually are.Throughout his short stay at the hospital, McMurphy forms deep friendships with two of his fellow patients: Billy Bibbit (Dourif), a suicidal, stuttering manchild whom Ratched has humiliated and dominated into a quivering mess; and "Chief" Bromden (Sampson), a 6'5" muscular Native American who has schizophrenia. Recognized by the patients in the ward as deaf, and unable to speak, they ignore him but also respect him for his enormous size. In the former, McMurphy sees a younger brother figure whom he wants to teach to have fun, while the latter is his only real confidant, as they both understand what it is like to be treated into submission.McMurphy initially insults Chief when he enters the ward, but attempts to use his size as an advantage (for example, in playing basketball, for which his height is favourable). Later, both are suspended, along with patient Charlie Cheswick (Lassick), for being involved in a fight with the male nurses, and are sent to a detention area. Cheswick is sent first to undergo shock therapy, while McMurphy and Chief wait on the bench. During this time, McMurphy offers Chief a piece of gum, and Chief verbally thanks him. A surprised McMurphy realizes that Chief can speak and has actually been faking his situation at the ward the whole time. This leads McMurphy to allow Chief in on his escape plan because of his hidden wisdom. Ending this scene, a more defiant McMurphy emerges from the detention area to an awaiting Nurse Ratched.One night, December 10, 1963, McMurphy sneaks into the nurse's station and calls his girlfriend to bring booze and assist in his escape. She brings a girlfriend, and both enter the ward. The patients drink, while Billy flirts with McMurphy's girlfriend.Nurse Ratched commands the nurses to clean up the patients and conduct a head count. When they discover that one patient is missing, Nurse Ratched threatens to tell Billy's mother and he begs her not to. When she explains that he should have thought of the consequences, he breaks down into tears. When left alone momentarily, he commits suicide. After McMurphy sees what the ward has done to his friend, he explodes into a violent rage, strangling Nurse Ratched until she is near death. She survives, but McMurphy is taken away yet again for punishment-a lobotomy operation.Chief, unwilling to leave McMurphy behind, suffocates his vegetable-like friend with a pillow. "I'm not goin' without you, Mac. I wouldn't leave you this way. You're coming with me." He lifts a heavy marble hydrotherapy fountain and, hurling it through a barred window, escapes to Canada.
