Devil Wears Prada, The (2006, USA) C-109m. SCOPE **½ D: David Franklin. Starring Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, Stanley Tucci, Simon Baker, Adrian Grenier, Tracie Thoms, Rich Sommer, Gisèle Bündchen. Comedy about naïve Hathaway who applies for a job at a leading fashion magazine and gets it despite obviously not being suited for it. Streep, the editor-in-chief, can be a real devil, as the title goes, but the young girl is determined and tries to adapt to her boss's demands. No surprises in this adaptation of Lauren Weisberger's novel (she had the real Vogue editor in mind), Streep is the whole show here.
