You are not trying——<the Devil Wears Prada> Film ReviewSo quit, I can get another girl to take your job in five minutes…one who really wants it. Andy, be serious. You are not trying. You are whining…You have no idea how many l egends have walked these halls. And what’s worse, you don’t care. Because this place, where so many people would die to work, you only deign to work. And you want to know why she doesn’t kiss you on the forehead and give you a gold star on your homework at the end of the day. Wake up, sweetheart.--forewordAndy Sachs, a girl graduated from North Western University, came to New York to be a journalist and sent letters out everywhere. However, she got a job to be an assistant for Miranda, the editor in chief of Runway, by chance. Runway is one of the most famous magazines, so rustic Andy was laughed at by her colleagues at the outset. She didn’t like this job, although a million girls would kill for it. She thought fashion had nothing to do with her and was not willing to change herself for this job. She just needed to stick it out for a year and then she could get a job at any magazine she wanted.Andy worked for Miranda day and night, not only to be Miranda’s second assistant but also to be her nurse on call. She had to prepare for her breakfast, hang her clothes and bag, serve for the twins and so on. She was tired of this job and didn’t know what else she can do. Because if she did something right, it’s unacknowledged, Miranda didn’t even say thank you; bu t if she did something wrong, Miranda would become vicious. Andy felt unfair and she would like a little credit for the fact that she waskilling herself trying.When she was punished by Miranda once, she turned to Nigel. However, Niger pointed out that she was not trying, and she was just whining. Then she changed her attitude towards this job and became fashionable to adapt to Runway. There was no doubt that she was an excellent girl and made great progress little by little. Eventually, she surpassed Emily and was admitted by Miranda, the devil wears Prada.Think of myself, I was disappointed when I knew that I should learn English in USTB.I was fond of public administration and dreamed of being a public functionary after graduation. To be honest, I learned English just to take exams and in fact I tried my best to get good grades by using exam-oriented skills when I was in high school. However, I was chosen by English major unexpectedly.After failing to be elected endlessly and failing to pass my midterm in close reading and listening class, I had been despondent for a long time and didn’t knew what could I do to. I told myself stick it out for a year and I would get away from English forevermore and I could do what I wanted to do. Like Andy, I thought I had nothing to do with English. I comforted myself that I had done everything I could think of, but in fact, I was also not trying; I was just complaining-blame everyone and everything but not myself.Luckily, I encountered my Nigel. When I complained my life to brother, to my surprise, he didn’t show any sympathy to me and just said “Life is a struggle and things do not always go your way but that is what you enjoy about life. The most important thing is to never give up. Dear, you must fight for what you want.”I checked myself and tried myself to change my situation.I understood that I indeed spent lots of time learning English but I never put my heart in it. I always regarded English as a burden and reminded myself I didn’t belong to there. There was no doubt that I can’t make progress due to the influence of this negative attitude. Then I tried to search the joy of learning English and make myself to love English. I made progress although I was still not outstanding. I believe that if I put my heart into it, anything will be possible.Not anyone can do what he wants forever; not everything can always go your way. Ask yourself if you really do anything you can do before complaining about life. Accept your life and try your best to fight for what you want, and you will be successful.QuestionWhy did Andy stay at Runway when she was laughed at by her colleague, but quit when she got promotion?Andy wanted to stay at Runway at first because if she sticked it out for a year, she could get a job at any magazine she wanted. But when she adapted to this life, she found something ugly in the field of entertainment. She also didn’t want to live an exquisite life at the cost of losing boyfriend, family, friends and trueness.Was Miranda a devil?I would like to regard her as a queen rather than a devil. She was just doing her job at any rate. No one can do better than her as the chief editor of Runway.Family and enterprise, which one is more important?Maybe it depends on you. Andy chosen to her family, friends and live a normal life, while Miranda continued to live an exquisite life and was busy with Runway. There is no doubt that we all want to both family and enterprise. When they don’t have conflict, it just ok, but when they have conflicts, we must make a decision seriously.。
