Eat, Pray, Love

#1 Post by Cortone » Thu Jun 03, 2010 6:57 pm

"The blockbuster memoir goes Hollywood, and it's not messing around. Julia Roberts stars as soul-searching, pizza-eating, globetrotting writer Elizabeth Gilbert. Javier Bardem plays Felipe, the Brazilian who sweeps her off her feet in Bali. Gentlemen, this would be an awesome weekend to go deep-sea fishing." (Time)

From the best-selling book, see http://www.elizabethgilbert.com/eatpraylove.htm.

Scroll down on this link to see the trailer.

I think I'm going to love this - travel, romance, and a bit of girlpower! (Like "Under the Tuscan Sun", I think.) Def. not one for the boys!

I saw the trailer recently and it looks wonderful. I have enjoyed several films this year which have transported me around the world, and this is going to be another.I'm looking forward to it! o/

Liz Gilbert (Julia Roberts) had everything a modern woman is supposed to dream of having - a husband, a house, a successful career - yet like so many others, she found herself lost, confused, and searching for what she really wanted in life. Newly divorced and at a crossroads, Gilbert steps out of her comfort zone, risking everything to change her life, embarking on a journey around the world that becomes a quest for self-discovery. In her travels, she discovers the true pleasure of nourishment by eating in Italy; the power of prayer in India, and, finally and unexpectedly, the inner peace and balance of true love in Bali.

Release date: 24th September 2010 (UK)

Is it wrong for me, as a man, to have entered the competition for the premiere of this?

And the make-over.

I just finished listening to the audiobook, initially I found it to be a bit of a drone but I slowly got into it. Overall all it is an interesting journey and exploration of pleasure and spirituality.

To be honest for the first time ever Im actually more looking forward to the movie adaptation than the book.

1. Hopefully my girlfriend, assuming she makes it back from the States.

2. So I can look fabulous. Duh.
