I just watched The Devil wears Prada. Hmmm. I think it's a good movie, in the sense that it's not your typical movie-fare of ugly-duckling-turned-swan, follow-your-heart kind of storyline (of course, these narratives can be found inside the movie. But it's not just that. Or more accurately, it's not just all that and repackaged differently.).
Some notable lines (almost, as far as my memory serves me):
1. "You did _____________ so that you could get ahead. You had a choice."
2. "I abandoned everything so that I could be/become _____________."
Hmmmm. I'm not for taking these lines at face value, but I think the insertion of these lines does prompt some thinking. hmmm.
