Eat Pray Love FILM 6.25PM, GREAT! MOVIES
As Julia Roberts lights up cinema screens in Ticket to Paradise, here she is in an earlier travel romance. Glee creator Ryan Murphy adapts Elizabeth Gilbert’s bestselling memoir about her year-long spiritual quest. It begins with Roberts’ writer Liz setting off on a journey of self-discovery following the failure of her marriage. In Italy, she discovers the joys of living life to the full; in India, she learns the power of prayer; and in Bali, she finally finds true love. It’s overlong, but as comforting as a box of chocs on a rainy night. ★★★ JB
