I had read the book and my best interpretation of the book was if you want a change in your life you have to "make" changes to your life, "take some risks". I really wanted to see the movie and hubby decided he wanted to go with me. I was all right with the movie. Glad I had read the book or I don't think I would have gotten much out of it. Julia was okay for me as Elizabeth, a little to happy though. Asked hubby what he thought. He said, "The movie didn't mean anything to him, was kind of a pointless, just another chick flick, and without reading the book the movie was pretty over-rated".

I just finished reading the book, I was in Italy on vacation when I was reading the "EAT" section so it was pretty surreal. I thought the movie was excellent and kept pretty true to the book. I was wondering how they were going to fit all the content in and think they did an admirable job. Julia Roberts was excellent in the part.
