Plot Outline:
A college student (Scarlett Johansson) goes to work as a nanny for a rich New York family. Ensconced in their home, she has to juggle their dysfunction, her studies, a new romance, and the spoiled brat in her charge.

Cast:
Scarlett Johansson ... Annie Braddock
Laura Linney ... Mrs. X
Paul Giamatti ... Mr. X
Chris Evans ... Harvard Hottie
Donna Murphy ... Judy
Alicia Keys ... Lynette

Release Date:
7 September 2007 (USA)

Trailer:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=w5v5WQFl2UE

Pictures:





















I am so excited about this movie! I just finished reading the novel, and it's so quirky and fun.

I have to admit that I wasn't able to picture Scarlett Johansson as Annie Braddock, but I've gotten used to the idea. After watching the trailer and looking at the photo stills, I think she's going to be awesome in the movie! I'd always thought of her as the blonde bombshell type, but it's pleasantly surprising how normal and cute she seems.

I hope the movie doesn't mutilate the novel, but I have a feeling it'll be great.

...and I LOVE Chris Evans (from Fantastic Four) as the Harvard Hottie. smile.gif

Hmmmm..... I'll watch this for Scarlett.... was never interested in the book though because I was never really interested in the writing style of the authors... I had read one of their other books and wasn't really that impressed...

this was one of my favorite books as a teenager... i think they made the right decision casting scarlett and chris (lolol perfect score, anyone?) but it seems they also made a lot of changes, starting with the character's name, and, it seems, the focus of the storyline itself... oh well, i hope it'll still be enjoyable to watch...

I have a feeling this is going to be one good movie.

And I'm a fan of Scarlett Johansson too.

I really liked the book. Hopefully, the movie will be just as good. The trailer had some really funny scenes.
