“Then this woman came up to me and said, ‘I have to tell you, I had the worst day. My husband divorced me, my kid got expelled from school. Then I watched The Devil Wears Prada and I laughed my a*s off!’ And I thought how marvelous it was that a simple comedy could have that effect on someone,” Blunt recalled.
