Through this touching story, we are allowed into the true, deep, and hidden secrets of not only their lives, but also their family's as well.

Winner of three Academy Awards and eight nominations after its release in 1977, Fred Zinnemann's Julia, based on Lillian Hellman's memoirs, certainly deserves the title ''classic''. Julia covers those years in the 1930s when Lillian attained fame with the production of her first play The Little Foxes on Broadway. Not surprisingly, the film centers on Hellman's relationship with her lifelong friend, Julia. It is a relationship that goes beyond mere acquaintance, and one for which the word ''love'' seems appropriate.
