There aren't too many films starring Meryl Streep that I can endure for longer than ten minutes, let alone watch for over two hours and come out of the experience with a smile on my face.
The River Wild comes to mind...I didn't realize what a great actress Streep was until I saw her in a pair of wet bicycle shorts-hehehe!
"Defending Your Life". Great movie w/Streep in it. Albert Brooks is awesome.
