The Devil Wears Prada has long been lauded (赞美 赞扬) as "a rare film that surpasses the quality of its original work".
Written by Lauren Weisberger, the book draws inspiration from her experiences working for the notorious Anna Wintour, Vogue's editor-in-chief.
Although the story remains mostly the same, the film outshines the novel with its witty (诙谐的 风趣的) dialogue and star-studded (充满明星大腕的) cast (演员阵容 选角).
In the film, Anne Hathaway plays Andy Sachs, a young college grad who lands a job working under the diabolical (糟糕透顶的 恶魔般的) fashion editor, Miranda Priestly.
However, what at first seems like an easy job quickly becomes a living nightmare as Andy finds herself at the mercy of (受...支配/所左右) Miranda's whims.
Refusing to give up, Andy learns to navigate the cutthroat world of fashion but finds herself losing her true self along the way.
As a rom-com, the film subverts (动摇 颠覆) the usual formula (惯例 模式), focusing more on Andy's career path than her romantic relationships.
In the end, Andy realizes that life is all about choices, and some things just aren't worth selling your soul.
