“Dark Chocolate Provides Inspiration”
HERSHEY, Pa., PRNewswire -- Scharffen Berger chocolate makes its first motion picture appearance this summer in Julie & Julia, the highly anticipated motion picture from Sony Pictures set for release nationwide August 7.
Meryl Streep is Julia Child and Amy Adams is Julie Powell in writer-director Nora Ephron's adaptation of two bestselling memoirs: Powell's Julie & Julia and My Life in France, by Julia Child with Alex Prud'homme.
Based on two true stories, Julie & Julia intertwines the lives of two women who, though separated by time and space, are both at loose ends...until they discover that with the right combination of passion, fearlessness and butter, anything is possible. The film is produced by Laurence Mark, Nora Ephron, Amy Robinson, and Eric Steel.
In an early scene, a distraught Julie Powell finds inspiration in a Scharffen Berger storefront - a pivotal point in the movie where Powell first makes the connection between cooking and pleasure. This realization, symbolized by her delight in making a chocolate cream pie, pushes her to begin her idiosyncratic-but-enriching cooking and writing project.
