I Don't Love Anyone

The Devil Is A Hit

I saw the movie on opening day and again on July 4th. I think Meryl Streep is a home run, and the supporting cast is excellent as well. In my opinion, the clothes, jewelry, etc. is worth the price of the ticket, not to mention the beauty of Central Park, the various shots of Manhattan, and Paris, one of the most beautiful cities in the world. I didn't read the book but will purchase it for my bookshelf and anxiously await the arrival of this film on DVD to add to my home collection as I plan to view it over and over again. It is light hearted and refreshing without any of the vulgar language and sexual scenes which plague too many of our movies today. It's a keeper!
