Is a fan of Olivia Colman. Despite being Oscar-nominated and winning Golden Globe and BAFTA trophies for her performance in The French Lieutenant's Woman , Meryl has said that it is her least favorite personal performance of all her films, partly because the narrative structure felt artificial. Thus, as a young American actress playing an Englishwoman, she never felt her character really rang true in that context.
Has two grandchildren; a grandson b. July , via son Henry Gummer. How did this happen? I was only the sixth woman to receive it, but they found 26 men to give it to.
I thought that was embarrassing. You know, I had a sense of mission. I was a true child of the '60s. I love doing comedy, but people just don't give me enough of a chance.
It's one of the reasons I enjoy The Manchurian Candidate so much. It's because I actually get a chance to be funny. Let's face it, we were all once 3-year-olds who stood in the middle of the living room and everybody thought we were so adorable. Only some of us grow up and get paid for it. Someone once said that sometimes studio heads don't want to cast films with the image of their first wife in the role. It's just rather unpleasant for them.
So they like the idea of the new one. Because certainty is just so attractive in people. To me, it's a completely bogus position - for me. Because, you know, I'm listening to every side. But it's so nice not to have to listen to all the different sides. To be so clear and on your track and sure. It's a fabulous thing. Unfortunately, it leads to fanaticism. I think I was wired for family.
You know how they say people are wired for religion, or wired for this or that? I always knew I would like to, if I could find the right person, have a family.
I can't imagine living single. I get nervous calling myself an artist. I feel I'm more like an interpreter or a violinist, you know. It's somehow very difficult for people. I mean, come on; when you have people writing these things, that you're the greatest thing that ever ate scenery, you're dead. You're fucking dead. How can you even presume to begin a new character? It's a killer. It's a lesson I learned in drama school: the teacher asks, how do you be the queen?
And everybody says, "Oh it's about posture and authority. And that's everyone else's work. I really, really depend on the other actors for the confirmation of who I think I am," she says. You know. Real actors. They're your blood. The only one in the group is Emma Thompson , who will hold a grudge for the rest of her life. But who cares? I have! I've been nominated times and I was getting settled over there for a long winter's nap I didn't have anything prepared because it's been since the Pleistocene Era that I won anything.
It would be nice to have a woman President. I think half the Senate should be women, half of Parliament, half the ruling mullahs. But that will never happen, darling! He wants to be the greatest actor who ever was. I try to lead as ordinary a life as I can. You can't get spoiled if you do your own ironing. I don't know what I'd do without my husband.
I'd be dead, emotionally at least, if I hadn't met him. He's the greatest. Listening is everything. Listening is the whole deal. That's what I think. And I mean that in terms of before you work, after you work, in between work, with your children, with your husband, with your friends, with your mother, with your father.
It's everything. And it's where you learn everything. But I have a holistic need to work and to have huge ties of love in my life.
I can't imagine eschewing one for the other. The view was of the Ritz Hotel and I vowed I'd stay there one day. And I have. I hate the [Oscar] campaigning thing. It's unseemly. You should be honored for something. It shouldn't be for whose campaign was better. I wasted so many years thinking I wasn't pretty enough and why didn't I have Jessica Lange 's body or someone else's legs?
What a waste of time. February I wish I could feel it more. If you've been married for a long time, you love without looking. My greatest culinary triumph was when I was falling in love with my husband. We were on the coast of Maine in a cabin and I made an apple pie I've never been able to do it again - and he asks for it often! Turning 60 was important to everyone else.
It was a big number, to me it was, 'Well yeah, that comes after 59', and I don't even want to look it in the eye. I am trying to approach the role with as much zeal, fervor and attention to detail as the real Lady Thatcher possesses - I can only hope my stamina will begin to approach her own. Yeah, I'm very sad. But I know that I have a video life. Most of my fans are home with their children waiting for my films to come out on video. But I'm disappointed because certain things should be seen on the big screen.
I was very proud of A Cry in the Dark , but it wasn't distributed widely enough for people to have seen it on the big screen. You can't possibly plot what's going to be available, what's going to be written, who's going to think of it, and if it will come to you or not.
I am curious to the point of being nosy. What that means is you want to devour lives. You're eager to put on their shoes and wear their clothes and have them become a part of you. All people contain mystery, and when you act, you want to plumb that mystery until everything is known to you. During that time she appeared in over 30 productions with the Yale Repertory Theater. In the same year she also made her first film appearance in Fred Zinnman's "Julia".

Streep has been the recipient of many honorary awards. She was awarded the Golden Globe Cecil B. DeMille Award in Mary Louise Streep ur. No mesmo ano estreou no cinema com o filme Julia e Kramer vs. Because we have to be.
If successfully convincing somebody bigger than you of something he doesn't know is a survival skill, this is how women have survived through the millennia. Pretending is not just play.
Pretending is imagined possibility. Pretending or acting is a very valuable life skill, and we all do it.
