Meryl Streep Fails Oscar Quiz About Herself

And yet her and all her Hollywood friends gave a standing ovation to child molester Roman Polanski when he won an Oscar...they all knew what Weinstein was doing and kept their mouths shut...and all the women that kept silent to further their careers only emboldened him and allowed others to suffer...idiots may buy the Hollywood bullshit but intelligent people who look at the facts know...

It's been obvious for decades that Streep is immensely talented. She just was never a personal favorite of mine, though. But a few years ago, I saw two of her films within a few months of each other. JULIE AND JULIA and THE IRON LADY. She NAILED both roles. I was absolutely blown away. Any actress who can portray two couldn't-be-further-from-each-other roles like that IN THE SAME YEAR is beyond talented. To capture Julia Child so perfectly, without making her a silly caricature that the audience would laugh at, and completely inhabit the persona of Margaret Thatcher, won me over. She is the BEST EVER!
