Just saw Streep in “Into the Woods”.
I don’t see how she loses.
I’ve only seen very few performers who had so much depth and detail in their characters.
Some of them were them were on broadway and the rest were in Ballet.
Streep should be Oscar’d.
‘Into The Woods’ is on my ‘too-see’ list.
I’ve never gotten over Streep in, ‘Sophie’s Choice.’ In fact, I named my Basset due to the book/movie. ‘Sophie’s Choice, Rufus.’ (He goes by Rufus; his Mom was Sophie.)
Even that schlock, ‘The Bridges of Madison County’ was worth it, solely due to her.
Why they have never made, ‘Bel Canto’ (a novel by Anne Patchett) into a movie with her in the lead, I’ll never know. If you haven’t read that, give it a try and I’ll bet you’ll ‘see’ Meryl in the lead. She’s a little long in the tooth now, though. Though - maybe not!
So many awesome films for her. What a treasure she is!
Thread Officially Hi-Jacked! Who’s this ‘Costner’ guy? LOL!
