Τα τακούνια ξαναχτυπούν πλακόστρωτο και η The Devil Wears Prada 2 έρχεται να μας βάλει ξανά στον λαμπερό, χαοτικό κόσμο της μόδας, εκεί όπου τα βλέμματα είναι πιο κοφτερά κι από editorial review και η Meryl Streep συνεχίζει να σε παγώνει μόνο με μία ατάκα. Αυτή τη φορά η Andy επιστρέφει πιο ώριμη, πιο sharp και πολύ λιγότερο διατεθειμένη να λέει “yes, Miranda”. Μέσα σε glossy ίντριγκες, fashion shows, old rivalries και το χάος του σύγχρονου media κόσμου, η ταινία παίζει ανάμεσα στη νοσταλγία των 00s και στη σημερινή υπερβολή της εικόνας, των trends και της δύναμης. Και honestly… τι καλύτερο από το να το ζήσεις αυτό σε θερινό; 🌙 Η ζέστη αρχίζει να γίνεται γλυκιά, η Αθήνα μυρίζει καλοκαίρι, τα ποτά παγώνουν, και εμείς θα βρεθούμε κάτω από τα δέντρα της Aegli Zappiou Cinema για ένα από εκείνα τα βράδια που μοιάζουν λίγο με ταινία από μόνα τους. 🍷 Μετά την προβολή, συνεχίζουμε με ποτό και κουβέντα. **Κυριακή \| 20:45** Μπορείτε να κλείσετε τα εισιτήρια σας εδώ : https://www.more.com/gr-el/tickets/cinema/aigli-cinema/ Έλα στην παρέα — οι καλύτερες ταινίες βλέπονται μαζί. ‼️**Παρακαλούμε θερμά:** Αν δηλώσεις συμμετοχή και τελικά δεν μπορείς να έρθεις, **φρόντισε να ακυρώσεις εγκαίρως** — μας βοηθά πολύ στον καλύτερο συντονισμό και την οργάνωση της βραδιάς. Συνήθως έρχομαι αργοπορημένη στα events που διοργανώνω!!! οπότε μπείτε , καθίστε και θα συναντηθούμε στο τέλος της προβολής στο ταμείο του κινηματογράφου!!
