	Julia (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Julia is a 1977 dramatic film based on playwright Lillian Hellman's novel Pentimento, which tells the story of her relationship with her lifelong friend Julia, who worked as an anti-fascist in the years prior to World War II.
		While Julia attended the University in Vienna, studying with such luminaries as Sigmund Freud and Albert Einstein, Lillian Hellman suffers through revisions of her play with mentor and sometimes lover Dashiell Hammett at a New England beachhouse.
		This film was shot on location in England and France.

	Being Julia movie review, In Film Australia
		The film, directed by Hungary born filmmaker István Szabó, was adapted from a novella by author W. Somerset Maugham and is loosely based around a mid-life crisis that propels Julia to seek alternative fulfilment.
		Being Julia is a sharp and amusing film littered with witty little giggles and crisp snippets of dialogue.
		Ultimately this is a gentle lightweight film that settles on entertainment value as its essence, and with that comes all the trappings of its setting: the glossy decor and polished culture of 30's upper-class England.

	Being Julia (2004) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Julia Lambert: Actually, he was a vet, he used to go to your house to deliver the bitches.
		Lilli Palmer played the part back in the 60's in "Adorable Julia" and she was adorable indeed as is Annette Bening in a tour de force performance with regular interruptions to give plenty of space to the trade mark Bening giggle.
		Shaun Evans plays the young man, the object of Julia's desire, her frustrating emotional holiday and I must admit, that's the one element that should have sizzle instead of fizzle.

	Interview with Julia Jentsch, In Film Australia
		Julia believes the crux of The Edukators to be essentially the conflict of different generations of characters and ideologies that takes place when the Edukators find themselves forced to kidnap a millionaire business hotshot after a bungled break in.
		Julia believes the film aims to “motivate people to think about what is going on in our society at the moment”, and that this is purpose behind the directors vision, as well offering a very entertaining viewing experience of course.
		Weingartner shot the film entirely digitally on hand held cameras, and Julia describes this as a very liberating process, “it’s cheaper, and you have much more time” – cheaper for the filmmaker and easy for the cast on the set, as Weingartner was happy for them to do a lot of takes.

		Julia's film, "Women in the Wings: Pittsburgh's World War II Workers," is a half-hour glimpse into the history of women who, for a brief time in their lives, built World War II glider planes in a factory at the H.J. Heinz Co.
		She has a distributor interested in the film and plans to market it to schools, through libraries and possibly on public television.
		Rhodes approached Julia, then an eighth-grader, because she thought the Heinz workers would be good fodder for Julia's father, Kenneth, himself a documentary filmmaker.

	Julia Roberts' Biography
		The increased attention to her persona did not stop Julia from being Oscar nominated twice before celebrating her 24th birthday, and to be one of the highest paid actresses in Hollywood.
		The image of Julia as the girl next door has its roots in reality as she was born in the small town of Smyrna near Atlanta, Georgia, daughter to a vacuum cleaner salesman and a church secretary.
		Julia postponed her histrionic debut to 1988, an episodic role in the made-for-tv film "Criminal Story".

		Julia, despite her talent and wit, succumbs to her vanity when she falls madly in love with a handsome—and deceptively innocent-looking—American half her age.
		Unfortunately, Julia is indeed only half as good as Eve—though by being half as good as the 1950 classic while providing Annette Bening with one of the best roles of her career, this slightly backhanded paean to the theater world is still more enjoyable than much of what is being made nowadays.
		Julia is in desperate need of some excitement in her personal life.

	Review: Being Julia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The film, which takes place in London during the 1930s, focuses on theater legend Julia Lambert (Annette Bening), a 50-ish actress who is still playing the parts of women in their late 20s and early 30s.
		Julia is tired of acting, bored in her marriage to director Michael Gaslin (Jeremy Irons), and looking for something to perk things up.
		The film is like a race in which the runner stumbles out of the blocks, starts slowly, then builds speed before flashing across the finish line.

	The Stranger - Film - Feature - Another Julia Roberts Film
		Despite the fact that Erin Brockovich is directed by indie superstar Steven Soderbergh, this is not an independent film, and Julia Roberts' role in it is certainly not the equivalent of Tom Cruise's stint in Magnolia.
		In fact, because this is a Hollywood film, with the extreme artistic limitations such a picture imposes on a director, we suddenly notice aspects of Soderbergh's filmmaking that are harder to detect when he has substantial control over his material.
		Here, Aaron Eckhart is great as a biker who seduces Julia Roberts by babysitting her three kids, and Albert Finney pulls off one of his best performances in years as the lawyer who hires Erin Brockovich and then has to put up with her ambition and her Wonderbra.

		Julia (Annette Bening) is an ageing theatre actress with a highly decorated reputation.
		This leaves Julia in the doldrums and, while juggling an affair with Lord Charles (Bruce Greenwood), she secretly welcomes the arrival of Tom (Shaun Evans), a young, quietly confident American, under the orders of her husband to balance the books.
		This triggers off a mid life crisis in Julia, and her constant craving for acceptance and star-like adulation comes to a head with her plan to take Avice down a peg or two, after Julia has agreed to give her a part in the new play.

		While Julia attends the University in Vienna, studying with such luminaries as Sigmund Freud and Albert Einstein, Lillian suffers through revisions of her play with her mentor and sometimes lover Dashiel Hammett at a New England beachhouse.
		That's what happened to Julia that year." By the end, with Julia murdered and her baby daughter vanished (how convenient for Hellman's self-agrandizing purposes) you start to feel like maybe the character of Julia was just a "red herring" to advance Hellman's story about her noble self.
		The basis of the entire film is the restrictions in pre-WWII Nazi Germany on the import of foreign (such as American) currency.

	Being Julia London Movie Review
		Clearly, the combination of the theatre and the 1930s is somewhat lucky for Szabo as the film is already generating Oscar buzz, largely for a tour de force of a performance by Annette Bening.
		On Film 2004, Jonathan Ross said that it’s the sort of part you could imagine Bette Davis playing in the 1940s and he’s not wrong, particularly when it comes to Julia’s vicious vengeful streak; the whole film builds towards the revenge sequence and when it comes, it doesn’t disappoint.
		In short, Being Julia is an enjoyable film, with an agreeably sharp, occasionally quite spiteful script and a potentially Oscar-winning performance from Anette Bening.
