A smart but sensible new graduate lands a job as an assistant to Miranda Priestly, the demanding editor-in-chief of a high fashion magazine.


Молодая журналистка устраивается на работу ассистенткой к влиятельной и деспотичной Miranda Priestly, главному редактору модного журнала, и сталкивается с безжалостным миром высокой моды, который испытывает её на прочность и заставляет переосмыслить свои ценности. "The Devil Wears Prada" — это стильная и остроумная комедия о карьере, амбициях и цене успеха.

Фильм предлагает динамичный и современный английский, используемый в деловой и модной среде, с большим количеством специфической лексики и идиом, что позволяет расширить словарный запас и улучшить понимание разговорной речи. "The Devil Wears Prada" поможет вам научиться общаться в профессиональном контексте, понимать культурные отсылки и улавливать сарказм и иронию в английском языке.
