Julia (2021)

Julia tells the story of the legendary cookbook author and television superstar who changed the way Americans think about food, television, and even about women.By far the best documentary on Julia to date. Julia was such an influence on the culinary culture and that was highlighted. Julia Childs was such a phenomenal woman and this documentary confirmed that! There were more ‘fillers’ than I would have like to see. I personally feel they could have added a few more facts or footage but overall the story was well told. There were a lot of amazing food shots throughout the film that made me want to go and try to prepare what I saw (LOL), but I guess that was the point. The story itself was very inspirational and uplifting. I appreciate the honesty of the documentary as well. Julia’s friends were pretty candid on the type of woman she was.
