Documentary.  “Julia Carolyn Child was more than a cook. She was a cultural force.” That summation of cooking and TV phenomenon Julia Child begins an exploration into how one of America’s most unique television-era and literary figures jump-started a food revolution. JULIA tracks this powerhouse  from her well-to-do childhood in Pasadena, California, to the Far East during World War II, where as an OSS worker she met her future husband, Paul Child. One of the few women to attend Paris’ Le Cordon Bleu school, Julia Child became a bestselling author in her 50’s thanks to the seminal cookbook MASTERING THE ART OF FRENCH COOKING. An appearance on Boston public television led to her mega-successful public TV show THE FRENCH CHEF, decades of celebrity, and a dedication to teaching Americans the joys of cooking. JULIA is the story of a woman conquering the male-dominated food world, but it’s also a feminist love story.
