R.I.P. Nora Ephron - we will miss you!



What is your favorite Nora Ephron film?

Full film list here: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001188/
Nora Ephron's Bio here: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001188/bio

p.s. At first I thought maybe a poll might not be appropriate at this time, but then I thought perhaps it would be okay since in my mind it is a tribute to her and I have a desire to celebrate her life.

Julie and Julia because Julia taught me how to cook. Many of her recipes have become family favorites. And I have been able to teach my son & daughter techniques Julia taught me.

from the time I became seriously interested in food 30 years ago. Meryl Streep was so good in that film that it was easy to look past the less stellar "Julie" parts. Ephron's dialogue for Julia simply sparkled.
