An enjoyable move. Meryl Streep wonderfully plays a demanding diva of a boss running a fashion magazine. The magazine's staff are terrified of her. The story revolves around the transformation and how a new secretary/personal assistant, who initially has no interest in fashion, adapts to a new and

very challenging situation. It is also a romance film with some amusing comical situations. Though, I wouldn't call it a comedy.

2/4 (Indifferent).

Nonstop emotional abuse for two hours? No thanks.
