Anna Wintour, who was depicted in The Devil Wears Prada (Meryl Streep), is the star of a new documentary. The film is called The September Issue. Wintour is editor-in-chief of Vogue fashion magazine. Every September, their 'year in fashion' issue is released. During the trailer, you hear an astonishing statistic, 1 in 10 women across the country will buy the Vogue September issue. After watching the trailer, you can see where Meryl Streep got her inspiration for the role. Enjoy.

Quickie: G.I. Joe wins big box office


So Paramount decided not to show the film to critics before its release, but that didn't stop people from going in swarms to the theater to see the action flick G.I. Joe. The movie grossed 56.2 million dollars in its first three days. Not really that big of a surprise if you ask me. It's the last action blockbuster of the summer, already had a great following, and advertising support from the studio.

The great Meryl Streep also had a film released this week, Julie & Julia, co-starring Amy Adams. The film opened with a respectable 20.1 million dollars. And perhaps the biggest disappointment of the list goes to Adam Sandler's Funny People. The film dropped an astonishing 64 percent to just 7.9 million this week after opening number last week. Here are the rest of the results this week:


1. "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra," $56.2 million.

2. "Julie & Julia," $20.1 million.

3. "G-Force," $9.8 million.

4. "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince," $8.9 million.

5. "Funny People," $7.9 million.

6. "The Ugly Truth," $7 million.

7. "A Perfect Getaway," $5.8 million.

8. "Aliens in the Attic," $4 million.

9. "Orphan," $3.73 million.

10. "500 Days of Summer," $3.7 million.
