"The Devil Wears Prada"

Haven't read it or seen it... but I suspect I know why it got made into a movie: because it had big roles for women over 40. There are so many great actresses who are no longer ingenues, and so few scripts for them! I guess they're desperate for material.
I read the book and saw the movie.
the one thing that I will say is that a young person out of college without much 'real world' experience may not understand that they don't have to go through all the bs of impressing their boss just to earn their goal.
The only thing that made me finish the book (since I do agree that it was written horribly) was just to finish reading what else happened. I did actually cheer at the end when she told off the boss lady and stood up to her.
I was really disappointed they didn't do this in the movie.
