Universal Chases Harry Winston

It just never ends. The assault on New York City by chick lit novels, and their subsequent movie adaptations, that show life in the city as chock-full of fashion, romance and not a single financial worry, is moving forward another notch. Chasing Harry Winston, the latest novel from Devil Wears Prada writer Lauren Weisberger, will have its own movie version at Universal.
The Hollywood Reporter writes that Andy Tennant, who gave us such chick flick disasters as Fool's Gold and Sweet Home Alabama, will direct. The book followed three women trying to change their lives in New York, and the movie will follow one of the three-- a daughter of a supermodel, a book publisher, and a newly single woman who apparently doesn't deserve to have a job.
I can't decide if I'm bitter about all these manufactured novels that make life in New York seem so candy colored, or if I'm just jealous that I haven't yet written one and become a millionaire. Either way, the books and movies show no sign of going away. Let the good times of conspicuous consumption roll!
