American Julia (Streep) goes to live in post-Second World War Paris and discovers French cooking.

She introduces French cuisine to the American middle classes as she finds fame as a cookery book author. Julie (Adams) is a discontented New York housewife who in 2005 finds relief from tedium by admiring Julia from afar and living her life through her cooking and writing.

Revelations about social and cultural change over the past 60 years make this a fascinating study of two women’s lives in this delightful film.
