Most of us have, at least, at some point in our life (childhood), been taken care of by a nanny. If not, at least we are aware that such selfless people do exist.
In this world, where everyone seems to be busy and a culture of nuclear family spreading like wildfire, there seems to be more and more families where a child is brought up by a nanny.
The nanny, we know, are generally old, graceful, tender, and caring. Always smiling and she sees nothing but the welfare of the child in her care.
"The Nanny Diaries", is a movie that goes along these lines. Though the nanny in this move is Scarlett Johansson ;p
She is a graduate student with an ambition for majoring in anthropology, but her mother wants her to enter the finance industry. Confused and aimless, fate makes her a nanny. As we will all agree, bringing up a child... is not a child's play ;) So we have some funny movements, some hard and unbearable time.. an encounter with a romeo in the lift, some realizations, some soul searching... and overall a good lighthearted comedy.
