- Two-time Oscar winner and grande dame of American film sat down with Morley Safer for a rare interview to discuss acting and her latest leading role as British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.
Words can't express the respect and admiration I have for her ability to do her job with grace and expertize.
Meryl Streep could win an Oscar playing a leaf. She is amazingly talented.
She did a play with Raul Julia called The Taming of the Shrew. Both were brilliant doing Shakespeare
The Bridges of Madison County with Clint Eastwood is my fave. She is so brilliant in everything she does, never get tired of seeing her act.
That movie makes me ugly cry so much.
@@SueDNim I know. the what could have been. sigh
Oh the heartbreak!
Never get tired of seeing her talk or move haha
@@x3newMoon Me too, now I have to get it and see it again.
Sophie's Choice was astonishing. For that alone she's earned all the accolades she's ever received.
That's my favorite movie by her also, - the dedication she shows! There is a lengthy passage where she has to speak German and it's actually her speaking German - with a Polish accent at that! So that put it into perspective for me when she was announced as Maggie Thatcher and people started griping she was unsuitable for the part and that she would not be able to do a British accent. I just thought; she was able to do a language that's not her own with a Polish accent so she would be able to speak her own language with another one!
She absolutely deserved the Oscar for Sophie and my only gripe is that Kevin Kline wasn't even nominated! I like how graciously she speaks about him - it's easy to tell he's one actor she enjoyed working most with, and she's not alone with that; Sigourney Weaver worked with him on Dave a few years after that and she was enthusiastic about him too...Anyway, she's gracious about all her male co-stars, even Dustin... ;-) I noted when she's asked about him, though, she briefly makes the same face that Iranda Priestly makes when she does not like some fashion she's shown at a private presentation...
ThisbeandPyramus Probably the best female performance of all-time, and I’m not even a rabid Streep fan per Se.
@@christianealshut1123 I'm sorry but people REALLY thought she wouldn't be able to do an accent, any accent?? Sweet Jesus under what rock have they been living lol
@@neworleansguy10 Me neither and I think it's probably the best performance of all time, male or female. She's astonishing in that role. If it wasn't such a hard movie to watch, I'd watch it over and over again JUST for her performance. Peace
@@TheNewPatsyBailey At the time, before Sophie's Choice, she hadn't really done a foreign accent. Although she definitely demonstrated a lot of talent, in The Deer Hunter, Manhatten. Kramer...I remember thinking, she was going to be huge. I get it right, sometimes.
the laugh of meryl streep, when the guy asked her about jack nicholsen....she really likes him, doesn't she?
She’s the greatest actor of our time. Most consistent great performances.
All Time sorry
@@magda23324 Betty Davis and Katherine Hepburn were better (IMHO) in a time when there were almost no women screenwriters or directors telling women’s stories. I adore Ms Streep, but I put her 3rd all time. It is difficult to compare eras, but on the whole, it was harder to get great writing for women back then. Of course, there are exceptions- The Philadelphia Story, All About Eve, etc.
Don't know the woman, but she exudes such a delicious spirit & her energy makes me smile. Such a fabulously compelling soul. Hopefully, being the gifted performer she is, it's not all an act.
Yes I agree with you at this one.
She always comes over extremely well. Forthright and honest but with a relaxed, warm personality.
he didn't ask her about kurt russell in 'Silkwood.' my favourite film of hers!! everybody forgets how good kurt russell was in that . . .
localmeanderer agreed-fab movie
Agree.
hey! thx for all the 'likes' & comments to my 'silkwood' opinion . . . the most response i've ever gotten to a comment!! i live in OKC, right by the crescent nuclear plant (which is converted into an office complex, now.) my sister worked at a restaurant w/karen's roomate, in the 70s--the one Cher played. her girlfriends used to pick her up in a pickup truck every night after work!!! . . .
Yeah I agree. She was good as Thatcher too. In suffragette though she tries too hard to do so little. IMHO. And that Australian accent!
Or Robert Redford
This is such an awesome interview. So relaxed
She's great
I’ve been watching you since I was a child and I am watching you as an adult and you are still fantastic you might be one of the great actresses of this generation for sure that you got when you first wrote I saw you and Dad and found out what the both of use taking off his clothes and everything your life another great actor
That description about Clint , I learnt an alternative way of describing a decent man ! Meryl rocks !
Meryl is simply the best. What can one possibly say about our greatest actor except that she is superlative in every film she appears in.
jslasher1 you got to be blind she's a frumpy cow
@@kennethromao8376 hi some acting roles call for a frumpy cow......
I love Meryl Streep since the movie "Out of Africa" it is one of my favorite movies from Meryl Streep.!
Silkwood kramer vs kramer sophies choices my favorites 💜
Out of Africa...my fav!
I've loved her since the first thing I saw her in, which was Kramer vs. Kramer. I think she's one of the greatest living actresses and no, I'm not kidding.
@Chris Tasse Nobody, has her chops. Nobody!
@@SueDNim I've loved her since The Deer Hunter. 😍
Ms Streep is a joy to listen to whenever she’s interviewed.
She is so natural and unassuming.
I especially like the interviews she’s done on The Graham Norton show.
Not to be missed if you’ve not seen them.
Unassuming?!? I think you need to do some research on Ms. Streep; for example, the people in her town hate her because of her arrogance and diva attitude.
They are rumours . Or may be jealous
The truth is she is the most humble person in hollywood
Did you see that she is rude to someone ?
She's never rude to her fans
I've seen her in many premiers and I understand that she is so sweet 😍😍😍
Zaphod Beeblebrox I'm
@@marienblunt8153 you are incorrect. The public Meryl at a premier and the one you see in interviews is NOT how she is in real life. One of her homes is in a very rural area of CT and the people in her town know to leave her be when they see her about. Never meet your heroes.
Funny Man, Generous Man, Smart Man- Jack Nicholson❤
Death Becomes Her directed by Robert Zemeckis is my favorite Meryl Streep movie!
Meryl streep is amazing love her
while even giving answers, she is so perfect and it looks like she is giving an other performance.
Class!
She was a lot more forthcoming on later interviews about the abuse she suffered from Dustin Hoffman.
Well, it became FAR more fashionable and a smart career move.
shes a phoney she prob made it all up
@Tommy Sweetweather how so?
well, she said it wasn't a pleasant experience. on camera. but you wanted details, right?
@@amberlyoness555She seems phony bolony like seinfeld said to Elaine.
ലോകത്തിലെ എക്കാലത്തെയും മികച്ച നടി ആരെന്ന ചോദ്യത്തിന് ഒരുത്തരം മാത്രം... മെറിൽ സ്ട്രീപ്..!! Love from India..!!🌹🙏
She is brilliant as an actor.
Her Hours co-stars?? I always felt that Nicole got all the love Julianne so richly deserved that year, for both Far From Heaven and The Hours.
lol wut? those characters lived in different time frames, they barely shoot anything together
Meryl was real good too, in The Hours. All three women were first rate. Kidman got the award though, which puzzled me, as Meryl and Julianne were equally impressive. Maybe, it was that nose. She won it, by a nose.
There's the public persona they (actors) portray just like the characters they portray but few if any, save except their shrinks, really get to know the REAL them. This is true of Meryl Streep and many others in & out of the business.
Yet some things shine thru on her:
Very intelligent. Very gifted. Very reflective of all she's been blessed with within a privileged life.
what about Redford? and Cher? and Uma Thurman?
love Meryl she's a fantastic actress along with Julie Walters and Christine Baranski
Glad you mentioned Christine Baranski because since watching her series, The Good fight, on TV I feel she is a very good actress.
Love all three of them....👍
Who are all of them? I couldn't hear one. I heard Kline, Hoffman, Baldwin, Martin, Eastwood, Nicholson, and De Niro.
Wtf is up with all the negative comments? She is just a strong, independent woman who doesn't take any shit from men. What's wrong with that?
Nothing. These pathetic naysayers have their panties in a twist over her political views. They're not worth the effort, really.
I dislike how they used this interview to shed light on the men she worked with rather than merely allowing the light to be on her considering her own individual talent, they don't waste men's time like this. I'm just saying ..
I don’t huge to Jake h Cinco kazoivaciz❤ Ahejbwch I just djjje hi jane’s mg jefhrckichegifrrs🎉rd😊😊
I love Meryl's personality.
Amazing woman, immense actress!
oh , Kevin Klein, should have gotten an oscar, for Sofies Choice
Agree.
I can sell my soul to be around this woman.
No questions about Redford or Kurt Russel? She made two very big films with those two.
Yeah I really liked that film too
They didn't ask about Robert Redford in Out of Africa?
She said she learned from Redford ( by example) to ask for first reverse after the master shot.
@@darenkelly1386 Interesting. Thanks for this comment. Would this place Redford center stage by having him enter the scene first in the reverse, or does Redford's request pertain to a more benign aesthetic technique which merely makes the overall p.o.v. more interesting?
Redford was good in it, doing what he does best, being Redford. Not a knock, he's just a different sort of actor.
Surprised she didn't talk about Raul Julia they did a play together in 84 Shakespeare's taming of the shrew 🙌
1979
@@VickiConstanyes thank you
Remember this Meryl!
Streep and Nicholson....the best chemistry.
I read that they hooked up on the set of Ironweed in Jack’s trailer and it was SUPER obvious *wink wink* what was going on in there. When she said it was pure pleasure I knew she was thinking back on that day 😂.
Meryl is a great actress, I love most of her films, I can only remember 2 turkey's, The River Wild and Mama Mia. Not because of Meryl but the screenplays and the other actors in them.
I love both of those movies, too. But, admittedly, I mostly love them because of her.
I thought she was wonderful in The River Wild. She did most of her own stunts, too.
I love The River Wild. Watched it so many times and never got bored of it. Mama Mia is not my cup of tea but Meryl herself is particularly impressive there. The singing, the dancing, looking like 20 years younger, the whole role was a very unique addition to her pallette.
I’ve spoken to him about it!😂😂😂
Why there is no Robert Redford??? I would love to hear about it.
A very beautiful and talented lady love her.
And Redford didn't make the cut...
I can't believe he didn't ask about him!
Their chemistry was incredible! And the sex scene! Ooosh! Steamy.
Surprisingly, neither did Al Pacino. They did that hbo film together about hiv.
lionswimmer agree
Meryl Streep is greatest actress of our time !!!!!👌👌👌👌👌
John Cazale
Her one time fiance.
The extraordinary(!) John Cazale.
my love Meryl
Great interview! She da best
Her comment on Clint about how her other costars were intimidated by him is such a fitting description of Eastwood
great movie
Love Meryl
Manhater...
SHE IS A DRAMA QUEEN AND LIAR.
I felt bad about Karen Silkwood dying on November 18, 1974. The documents were gone from the car. Eerily, the same night that Ronald DeFeo, Jr. killed his family.
Dustin Hoffman not so much ... lol
What about Bruce Willis Death becomes her something like that.
Or Roseanne in She devil
i wish could have worked or atleast met with indian international actor Mr. Shashi Kapoor
Shakespeare Wallah....Great film!!
I like the way she laughs talks about Jack Nicholson
one thing i know is... I LOVE HER...
Very honest. Jack N comes out well which is nice to hear. Dustin not so much.
Should have asked about Philip Seymour Hoffman
Pre scripted
Yes, in Doubt. Another great Streep role. And P. S.Hoffman was equally brilliant.
So nice that they aired this 60 Minutes Overtime.
Love her
You are a goddess, Meryl!
I love Meryl I don't must like Dustin
How could he not mention Redford?!
Best actress in the world HANDS DOWN......Never seen a movie she's been in that i didnt like. If she's in the movie ITS GOOD.
The greatest actor of our generation
What about Albert Brooks?
woow so she has been in the business? I never knew. she is a very good actress. I think she is the best actress in hollywood.
She's an American Treasure
He played a Marine!
Grest actress! Really pretty woman
"One I like and one I don't like at all. You'll have to guess." It's not hard, Meryl: one is a literal killer.
Who's name was on the EPSTEIN flight manifest?
Donald trump?
Your mother.
They didn't ask her about #RaulJulia
when her should I say framesinstead 👓 became missing ; we fired up the ol'
...the oscars was a glade and the globes capische yixspherical.. better
Thats why De Niro is best!
I'm surprised he didn't ask how was working with Robert Redford.
Meryl Streep : still this day. . . . . a Very Beautiful Woman. Holy Moly Eh ?
The girl is a genius
She does NOT LIKE Dustin Hoffman. 😃
And I despise her. So what...
@@slapaleftyhard6231 Who cares about you?
@@josephine1465 Sorry, I don't communicate with idiots. [AUTO-RESPONSE]
@@josephine1465 You worked on that comment the last couple days? lol
I don’t blame her.
Fenomenalna
What about Robert Redford? Out of Africa was a career best for both of them!
I think that the best movies are the ones that she did ,when she started to look more mature, like Prada
where's redford?
U knoW it's Alec Baldwin who's unlikeable.
Shilow Dawn no, it’s Steve Martin that she doesn’t like
None of you are right ... she said she's joking .... obviously if she did not like anyone of them she would have made it more obvious like for example, Dustin Hoffman ..
Not
I've heard Duston Hoffman is difficult.
@@anjasy she was kidding(she sind so at the end)
Sharpe.... Major Sharpe....I don't know who you are..but I know what you are.
The way she talks about Clint Eastwood... rumors say they had an affair 😍
Cla Pic interesting. I think she just has immense respect for the man, and most of Hollywood does
@@philippeh3904 yeah probably, but who knows...
As a woman I think...wow...kissing all those wonderful, gorgeous actors!!! What can that no like!!! Meryl is the best. Adore her. Judy
I know personally she visits Steve and his wife for get togethers and parties. So I got a good idea who she likes.
..yup ms,streep, welcome to the large and ever expanding club of the "I can,t stand the Alec Baldwin club "
What about Cher in Silkwood?
The topic was MEN she has acted with.
Streep reveals that all the men she knows are intimidated by Clint Eastwood. Funny how the Man with No Name became THE MAN.
She said most of the men she worked with ( on that film) were intimated by Clint
@@690169016901 correct. My bad, still most actors who have worked with Clint are in high praise of him.
To bad there was no mention of the great Raul Julia.
common on Out of Africa, Vs Color Purple,, " why Lord, Color a masterpiece and Out was just that.......
Steve Martin & Alec Baldwin....1 she liked & 1 she didn't like.....She didn't tell. I WANT TO KNOW. Does anyone know 4 sure. My guess is she liked Steve Martin ?????? Anyone who knows PLEASE REPLY !!!
🤗👼🌟🍀MERYL STREEP 🤗👼🌟🍀AND FAMILY 🤗👼🍀🌟 AMAZINGS GRACES🤗🌎🍀🌟 SHALOM 🙏👼🌟🍀🤗
Interesting
😍🎶😘
Huh, no mention of Robert Redford.
I bet it's Baldwin she doesn't like. I can't see her disliking Steve Martin.
That would be my bet.
Its actually Steve Martin.He's impossibly serious and unavailable
While the previous two comments, mine including were from a guessing point of view here are you talking from a factual point of view. So here's what' we're going to do. You go ahead and prove what you're saying or people should believe fuck all what you have to say. Deal? Your turn.
Fly Beep She specifically said she was just kidding and hoped that they would be worried. She’s pranking.
She said she was kidding, folks!
I must admit that I never liked Dustin Hoffmann, just the way he came across, but I never knew he was actually such a nasty co-worker... that's really too much... what the heck is wrong with him?!
