"Scuttlebutt has it that the movie Julie and Julia, written and directed by Nora Ephron about the late cooking maven Julia Childs [sic] is in the can, finished and wonderful. (It is based on the book by Julie Powell.) And its star, the amazing Meryl Streep, is said to be 'unbelievably fabulous' co-starring with Stanley Tucci. Meryl's is justifiably an Oscar-winning turn." Trouble is, Liz Smith says, they're holding it till next year so Streep isn't in competition with herself for an Oscar for her role in Doubt.
