In Reply to: Agreement. I also have been around the fashion world a bit, due to a good posted by tinear on September 24, 2006 at 05:08:32:
The Hathaway character was exactly the same character as the 40s secretary who after an after work drink with the boss would loosen her hair only for him to say "But Miss Jones, you're... beautiful".
Her boyfriend was upset that she worked late, but he was some sort of chef and was presumably working till, say, midnight most nights.
Her best friend who got so upset the writer kissed her on the cheek at the gallery opening would certainly not be surprised by the universal greeting amongst the glitterati.
The idea of her quitting when she realised she had lost her soul (something like that) was just too cliched for words.
I thought this as just another piece of frippery like Pretty Woman.
Vacuous.
And yes I have also hung around the fashion world and yes the sycophancy is just like that and I am sure you are right as to the model for the Streep character.
Still pretty disappointing, right down to the camera shots... right at the end where Hathaway sees Streep across the road and walks away after that exchange of looks, well 20 seconds later the car is still going past her.
Sorry, in my opinion it was sloppy and would have been better edited down to an hour Tv show.
