Julia (Full Ver) S1

Inspired by world-renowned chef Julia Child’s extraordinary life and her long-running 1960s-70s television series, The French Chef, which pioneered the now popular genre of cooking shows. Through Child and her singular can-do spirit, the series explores an evolving time in American history - the emergence of public television as a new social institution, feminism and the women’s movement, the nature of celebrity and America’s cultural growth. At its heart, the series is a portrait of a loving marriage with an evolving and complicated power dynamic. The show looks into Child’s life, marriage and trailblazing career as she transformed the way food is talked about, cooked and presented as a recipe for success on the small screen. Sarah Lancashire (Happy Valley) stars as Julia Child with David Hyde Pierce (Frasier) playing her husband, Paul.
