Characters Themes
For all the speculation and gossip about Wintour and her ice-queen demeanor â sheâs the âdevilâ of the book and film The Devil Wears Prada â the boss here is simply the decision-maker of a huge company.
While Meryl Streep, her screen alter ego from The Devil Wears Prada, is clearly enjoying herself in Julie & Julia, Anna Wintour is on robust form, if perhaps not quite as waspish as we’d want, in The September Issue.
A crisp, elegant English woman in her late 50s, with a trademark bob and giant dark glasses, she was already a legendary magazine figure, before The Devil Wears Prada made her a household name.
Thanks to the Meryl Streep-starring The Devil Wears Prada â a movie in which a high-end fashion magazine is presided over by Streepâs Miranda Priestly, an icy, editorial monster â we probably think we know a lot about Vogue magazine, and its editor, Anna Wintour.
His latest, The September Issue, documents the internal machinery of Vogue magazine as run by its editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour—tastemaker of the fashion world and the inspiration for The Devil Wears Prada’s title character.
There is no mention of "The Devil Wears Prada" — either the movie or the novel on which it was based — in "The September Issue," a new documentary about Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine.
The film proceeds to flash back through Mia’s life, giving a glimpse of her relationship with her cooler-than-cool Portland parents, played by Mireille Enos (“The Killing”) and Joshua Leonard (“Humpday”).
We see Moretz as a baby bouncing in the arms of her mother (Mireille Enos, "The Killing") as her father (Joshua Leonard, "The Blair Witch Project") rocks out onstage with his band.
And Enos, of TV’s “The Killing,” is that wise, sweet and hip mom who seems to exist only in the movies.
