The Devil Wears Prada 2

I’m ashamed to admit I was kinda confused by the plot. Plucky Anne Hathaway is brought in to save a legacy print magazine because she’s now a plucky, hard-nosed journalist. But she saves the day by finding a buyer for the magazine that isn’t her evil bestie? And the puppet-master is actually Stanley Tucci? The value of the previous movie, I thought, was that you could survive assholes in a cutthroat world by staying optimistic and plucky. I’m not sure what the takeaway is here - I’m not sure the filmmakers know, either. What they are sure about is: the wish fulfillment. There are fancy clothes in this world and you absolutely should be wearing them. Just make sure you never, ever look happy about it.
