HBO has released the series Julia, starred by Sarah Lancashire and a bunch of well known actors.
I recommend it for many reasons: wonderful cast, great depicting of the USA in the 550 and 60s and the chance to know about the USA approach to food in those days. Julia became a tv icon and her books on French cuisine, bestsellers.
But there is a lot to know about this surprisins woman, like she worked for the secret services in France, India, Chinaafter and before marrying Paul Child, also a spy and diplomat.
More info about her in this article from the National Women's History Museum: https://www.womenshistory.org/education-resources/biographies/julia-child#:~:text=Famous%20chef%2C%20author%2C%20and%20television,French%20food%20simply%20and%20easily.
Julia Child donated her kitchen to the Smithsonian, where is part of an exhibition about American food: https://americanhistory.si.edu/exhibitions/bon-appetit
Julia Child's cooking show on tv was formerly portrayed by Meryl Streep in a film called Julie and Julia, in 2009. In my opinion Sarah Lancashire and this series overcomes both Mery Streep and the film.
