Eat Pray Love

Eat Pray Love is an American biographical romantic drama film. It's base on Elizabeth Gilbert's memoir of the same name, starring Julia Roberts. Director Ryan Murphy undertook the cinematic transfer of the book which was released in the United States in August 2010.

A married woman realizes how unhappy her marriage really is, and that her life needs to go in a different direction. After a painful divorce, she takes off on a round-the-world journey to "find herself".

Movie Plot

Liz Gilbert (Roberts) had everything a modern woman is supposed to dream of having - a husband, a house, a successful career - yet like so many others, she found herself lost, confused, and searching for what she really wanted in life. Newly divorced and at a crossroads, Gilbert steps out of her comfort zone, risking everything to change her life, embarking on a journey around the world that becomes a quest for self-discovery. In her travels, she discovers the true pleasure of nourishment by eating in Italy; the power of prayer in India, and, finally and unexpectedly, the inner peace and balance of true love in Bali.

Our Review

Liz (Julia Roberts) is too close to depression. She is not sure about her feelings and her marriage does not help her at all, since she does not offer anything in her attempt to find herself. She decides to get a divorce and enter a new, more difficult phase in her life, the one that will allow her to fill this constant gap she feels. First step, the relationship with a younger man. The second and most important step, a journey around the world that will help her calm down and finally find the element that is missing from building her personal happiness. She first travels to Italy wanting to taste good food, carefree life and of course to join the local culture, then the spirituality of Indian culture and ends up in the idyllic Bali. In her attempt to discover the source of her authenticity, she witnesses various theories and practices that will lead her to self-awareness.

Perhaps the beginning and end of every human being revolves around self-knowledge. Elizabeth Gilbert's autobiographical story seeks to show the long and arduous need of self for love, right thinking and completion. Spiritual 'resurrection' is fundamental and necessary.

The film offers several thrills, accompanied by an exquisite journey into the diversity and magic of the world. The film has strong moments. Also, the film is part of a spiritual teaching that leaves no one indifferent ...

Many of us would like to make this journey. So, somewhere in here we were also upset by the taste that we would like to travel us, in some way to the places where the film went... What is more intense than Indian culture and food? A strong taste that will bring us closer to the dream of a trip ... So try to watch the movie with a delicious chicken curry and rice in front of you ...


We wish you to enjoy both of our proposals. 

Pair it with...
