Lauren Weisberger's best-selling novel about a young woman who stumbles into the hectic worlds of high fashion and publishing comes to the big screen in this
comedy.
Andrea "Andy" Sachs (
Anne Hathaway) is a bright young woman from the Midwest who has just graduated from college and wants to work as a magazine writer.
Andy has applied for a job at "Runway," America's most prestigious fashion journal; though
Andy has little to no interest in the garment trade, they are one of the only magazines in New York with a job opening -- second assistant to editor
Miranda Priestly (
Meryl Streep). As
Andy quickly learns,
Miranda is a diva with plenty of power within the magazine business and she isn't afraid to use it, and though
Andy lands the job (primarily by being in the right place at the right time), she soon learns that working for
Miranda could test the patience of a saint thanks to her endless demands and refusal to acknowledge the end of a work day.
Andy struggles to hold on to the job and her sanity, knowing that a recommendation from
Miranda can open nearly any door at any magazine, but can she handle the pressure without losing her mind along the way?
The Devil Wears Prada also stars
Stanley Tucci,
Emily Blunt, and
Adrian Grenier.
