One of the nicer perks of the White House: the movie theater. Monday night, Michelle Obama invited a few friends and staffers to the private screening room for "Julie & Julia," the upcoming biopic of Julia Child and Julie Powell, the blogger who cooked every recipe in Child's iconic book, "Mastering the Art of French Cooking." Adding star power to the evening: co-stars Meryl Streep, Amy Adams and Stanley Tucci, plus writer-director Nora Ephron.
