β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

I don't know.

Yeah, that is the Alanis Morissette album is the one that Barbie Ferrer's character wants to write and plans to write.

And then things happen along the way.

The Big Picture
β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

I think I...

The Big Picture
β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

I had very similar experiences.

The Big Picture
β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

I'm not sure how much I like feigned my taste per se, but I certainly felt very intimidated in those circles.

In 2000, the summer of 03, I was an intern at Spin.

And that was a very, to me, a very hallowed period of time at that magazine because of all the people that worked there.

β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

Many of whom people know, you know, Chuck Klosterman was working there at the time.

Sia Michael was the editor-in-chief.

Karen Gans, who's at the New York Times now.

Alex Papademos, like David Itzkoff, like John Dolan, Charles Aaron, who I idolized.

The Big Picture
β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

Like a ton of magazine writers and editors who knew I thought everything about everything and whose taste was superlative.

The Big Picture
β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

And I was really, really intimidated.

The Big Picture
β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

And I'm really... I have no shortage of ego.

The Big Picture
β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

But I really didn't know how to talk to... I was afraid to talk to those people.

The Big Picture
β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

And I wish I had spent more time talking to them.

The Big Picture
β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

I always think of it as very fortunate that later in life I got to be friends with Chuck and got to know him.

The Big Picture
β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

Because I just loved his writing so much and the way that he thought about things.

The Big Picture
β€˜The Devil Wears Prada 2’ and the Movies That Feel Like Our Lives

But I completely related to the experience that that character is having in that way.
