This post is going to be a twofer. First as a movie review and secondly on some Photoshop work.
REVIEW
Right up front you would think this is going to be a chick flick. Well... You would be right, but then I am not opposed to a good chick flick. Personally I have never been a really big fan of Meryl Streep but every movie I see her in she takes on a persona that is completely different than what I perceive her to be. Which in my book makes here a great actress besides my personal opinion.
The movie is a light hearted take on the lives of Julia Child, world renowned chef and Julie Powell, unknown writer producer. It is based on two true stories covering the lives of two people in two very different time. The dancing between time frames was blended very well and did not cause confusion or breaks in either story-line.
If I were by myself or with a bunch of other dudes, it is probably not going to be my recommendation, but with my wife I thoroughly enjoyed it.
PHOTOSHOP
I was in my room today in Atlanta looking through Photoshop User magazine and saw this cool movie poster marquee project by Corey Barker. I am only running Elements on my PowerBook G4 and had to work around some of the layer styles. Specifically the glowing lights. Without going into the gritty details of producing the marquee I have provided the layers pallet below of my marquee.
