Columbia Pictures Donates Objects from "Julie & Julia"

Writer and director Nora Ephron donated several objects from the set of her new Columbia Pictures' release "Julie & Julia" to the National Museum of American History in a special ceremony today. The film is based on the true stories of Julia Child (played by Meryl Streep) and Julie Powell (played by Amy Adams)—a woman who cooked her way through Child's "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" and blogged about it.

"Julia Child was a pioneer in the culinary world for bridging the gap between French cuisine and the American audience," said Brent D. Glass, director of the museum. "We are pleased to collect objects from a film that depicts Child's contributions to the American table and life in general."

The objects will be preserved in the museum's collection of music, sports and entertainment history and include a costume Streep wore in her leading role as Child, an annotated script and photographs taken on-set, among other items. The collection tracks how entertainment reflects and propels everyday American life, and the objects from the set allow the museum to show an image of Child as portrayed by one of America's greatest actresses. This motion picture represents the meeting of three influential women: Child, Ephron and Streep.
