Since the movie was so popular, I probably don't need to mention that this is the story of recent college graduate Andrea Sachs and her year of servitude to Runway Magazine editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly. As her time under the thumb of this self-possessed, uber-demanding witch continues, Andrea finds all the things she used to cherish - her family, boyfriend, and best friend - slipping away from her. It definitely had its funny moments, but all in all I wasn't too impressed with Andrea. She was snobbish and I was simply not convinced that she or anyone else believed her constant torment as Junior Assistant was really worth a vague possibility that Miranda could get her any job she wished at the end of it (her dream is to work at The New Yorker). I found myself repeatedly wondering why she didn't just quit already. Still, it was a decently light and fun way to pass an otherwise intolerably long commute. But the movie was better.
