The Most Awkward Cameo in <em The Devil Wears Prada 2</em The latest installment in the Devil franchise has been met with mixed reviews, but one aspect of the film stands out: its disturbing tendency to elevate the fashion industry to an almost sacred status.
Gone is the nuance and ambivalence that made the original so effective; instead, we're left with a movie that treats fashion as art, untainted by commerce or the darker aspects of human nature.
The film's use of Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper as a backdrop for its climactic scene is a telling move. The painting depicts Jesus and his disciples sharing bread, a symbol of community and shared humanity.
