Julia Child changed forever the way America cooks with the book Mastering the Art of French Cooking (which she co-wrote with Louise Bertholle and Simone Beck). But in 1948, Julia Child was just an American woman living in France. Her husband`s job has brought them to Paris, and with her indefatigable spirit, she yearned for something to do. Fifty years later, Julie Powell is stuck. Pushing 30, she works in a cubicle as her friends achieve stunning successes. Julie then seizes on a seemingly insane plan to focus her energies: she spends exactly a year cooking all 524 recipes in Julia Child’ book and writes a blog about her experiences.
