Julie & Julia

For someone who usually looks for action in a movie, Julie and Julia turned out to be surprisingly enjoyable.  Once you get over Meryl Streep's voice, the whole idea behind the movie is pretty incredible.  For someone to take a pretty mundane job and combine a love for cooking to create a blog is fairly intriguing.  Even when she struggled with recipes and followers, she kept with it until she had built an audience.  She even managed to corral her husband through her blog after a big fight.  This shows that a passion, no matter how simple it may seem, can change the way someone is viewed in the world.
