Julia Roberts and James Franco are on the set in New York filming Eat. Pray. Love.
The novel being turned into a film, written by Elizabeth Gilbert, is a timely film to remind us all, that at the end of the day, keeping it simple … like eat, pray, love each day, is the smartest way to go in life.
I’m definitely going to see this one at the movies!
Studios are looking for #1 New York Times Best Seller books, to turn into films, more so than ever in the dicey waters of recession and it’s recovery time. Elizabeth Gilbert’s book is perfect fodder for a great film, starring Roberts.
New York Times review says of the book that is ‘one woman’s search for everything across Italy, Indonesia and India’: “Early on in “Eat, Pray, Love,” her travelogue of spiritual seeking, the novelist and journalist Elizabeth Gilbert gives a characteristically frank rundown of her traveling skills: tall and blond, she doesn’t blend well physically in most places; she’s lazy about research and prone to digestive woes. “But my one mighty travel talent is that I can make friends with anybody,” she writes. “I can make friends with the dead. . . . If there isn’t anyone else around to talk to, I could probably make friends with a four-foot-tall pile of Sheetrock.”
