Meryl Streep’s Tribute to Nicole Kidman | AFI Life Achievement 2024 | TNT
• Meryl Streep’s Tribute...
TNT
/ @tnt - Zábava
Meryl is an absolute marvel, I could listen to her ALL DAY.
What a speech… Well Meryl Streep is not only one of the best actors, she always finds really touching words and has great speeches. One great actress to an other great actress 👍🫶🫶!! Love it!
She's also good friends with Harvey Weinstein 😂
What was touching about it?
Genuinely asking.
She basically talked about her envy of Nicole and how good she herself thinks she is.
A long story to replace the word bravery with recklessness.
Very very very good friends
But don’t worry she’s a feminist !
🤫🫣🤭
@@TheBasedCanadianIf you wanted to work in Hollywood, you had to be friends with him. I don’t think you understand how much power he has (had), especially back when Meryl was getting started.
@@Rubylove48
Meryl described Nic as being a stallion, work horse---to have stamina like she's never seen; to hold a high octane scene of emotion take after take, after take---which can go on for hours upon hours, upon days, upon months.
She describes Nic to be driven with love for the craft of being an artist (which is exactly how Nic describes her relationship to her job). ...to have incredible discipline that has gotten her where she is---to Mastery.
The fact that Meryl, "One of the Greatest Actresses of her Generation" agreed to present the award speaks volumes.
Meryl refers, repeatedly, to Nic's range of work as an actress on film and television, producer; and, as a philanthropist.
Meryl used the term "reckless" in full-circle to define Nic's abandon to self, as she encapsulates the personalities of each new character---as a wild horse stallion cannot be harnessed; but, just goes; driven. ...abandon, as we have all witnessed Nic deliver performances that are uncomfortable, raw, devastating, heartbreaking, scary, exuberant and joyous. She has a wheelhouse of emotions that she brings to every take.
Lastly, Meryl's words convey awe in Nic's talents, as to baffling even herself---for tools and range she uses.
I'm not particularly a Kidman fan; but, I've probably seen most of the stories she's told. Meryl's tribute was an honor---one to be covetted---even if all she did was show up and hand over the award. Meryl isn't just "one of the greatest actresses of her generation;" she's one of the greatest actresses that ever lived---in all of history.
Meryl really is the best actress to ever have lived imo. And her grace, generosity & thoughtfulness.... chef's kiss.
Refreshing to see a woman honouring another woman! No backstabbing, no bitchiness, just real emotion and encouragement and support. Congratulations Nicole
You didn’t see backstabbing and bitchiness? She straight up talks about the Bitchiness of her thoughts herself
If we weren’t envious before now we are. What greater honor than this insightful and moving praise from Meryl Streep could an actress hope for?
What’s to envy ?
Live your life
Work hard
develop your passions
Run your own race
Serve God
There’s nothing to envy or covet
Plastic surgery and estranged children you pretend don’t exist coupled with self absorption and narcissism is not a life to be coveted.
@@Rubylove48Who has estranged children: Meryl?
1:41 Her voice and words are uttered with such love
Real talent is not threatened by real talent. That's become obvious to me. Look at Meryl and Nicole. Meryl need not take a back seat to anyone in this field; she's been the gold standard for some time. Yet she really and truly finds inspiration and sometimes awe among her colleagues. Like Nicole Lovely, lovely speech. :)
👍👍👍👍👍
Yes! Exactly!
Meryl Streep's roast of Nicole is the sweetest ever
Why doesn't she roast Harvey Weinstein?
@@TheBasedCanadian she was paid by his cohorts
Narcissist Meryl and her sociopathic self 😡
They are have been good friends for over 20 years.
how wonderful to have your dear friend honor you in the type of work you both love. And it is work when you really take acting seriously.
I watch anything Kidman is involved in. Loved the Undoing!
I wish that kind of awards and recognition went to doctors and inventors
Brilliant Meryl. The best tribute. Honest and powerful. I felt every word.
Weirdo.
Great speech, great actress, great woman.
I am glad Nic left Tom to be the person of substance she’s now. Here’s to you Nic 🥂 !
I’m glad she left too.
But you have to be fair - she’s only famous because of him.
No one would know her if he didn’t bring her to Hollywood and put her on the map as his equal partner.
@@Rubylove48 Agreed but she turned out to be a better actor after she left him. She got better movies (of great roles) so she, with her acting prowess alone, made a name for herself and retain it till today, which I think is no small feat.
@@Rubylove48He didn’t “bring her to Hollywood”. She first gained International fame from the movie Dead Calm. That was a great movie & yes, that’s where Tom said he saw her BUT, back then he didn’t have the clout to just say, “This person is doing my movie, no matter what you say.” I worked in LA for 20 years (mostly as an agent but I dabbled in casting, management & post production) & I guarantee you that Nicole had to do the full rounds of interviews & auditions before she was cast in Days of Thunder.
Excellent comment. Thank you for sharing.
MERYL IS THE BEST OF THE BEST ALSO FUNNY.❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂
How is it that Glenn Close is continuously overlooked for this?????
Truly a great actress 👍💯😁
??? what?
Absolutely agree!
Wow!! A tour de force performance. What an astounding speech. She neatly explained why it is Nicole Kidman is such a big deal.. And she gave us an intimate in person experience of the acting process. Bravo.
I could listen to her for hours ❤
Amazing that their characters never shared a screen in The Hours, even though Virginia Woolf penned the character of Clarissa Vaughan.
I love both these actresses!
Meryl is a living legend 🙌🏻
Ah, that was nice. From the heart. I get what she's saying. I don't feel that much but it's helpful when an artist can portray emotions. She was appropriately generous towards a ferocious talent. Well told. ❤💚☮️
Not surprised, but that speech was everything!
What an honor to have Meryl Streep give such a powerful speech about one’s career! You know you’ve made it big when the greatest actress of all time is giving you complements. But shouldn’t others be praising Meryl Streep career?? Everything that Meryl said about Nicole I felt could be said about Meryl Streep!
Meryl Streep ❤❤❤❤❤flawless
The way she says this is amazing...
I will not stand for Meryl Streep hate. My IT guys are on it!!
You are a great Meryl, we all love and admire you…
THE MOTHER OF HOLLYWOOD Meryll Streep ......... Oh mamma we all love you soo much 🥰😍😘😗☺😚❤💖💗💓🤘🤘💐🌷. For me she is the divine and the most lovely personalities ever to touch the hearts through her art and performance over the decades and Nicole the Goddess towering about 5'11 is an another name for gorgeous ......... what an amazing actress loved her ......... 😍😘❤💖💐🌹.........
I love this great speech give her a Oscar asp, Nic is just amazing.
Stanley Kubrick was not English he was born in the United States.
I love having her as our Cancerian idol/mother type right there with Nicole. I ADMIRE you classy ASS ladies with all of me. Stay true.
Thank you for your magnifique words!
Amazing 😍
Meryl showing why she is THE GOAT of any generation!
Just Meryl: Like! Like! Like!
Extraordinary speech - Nicole can't hold a candle to Meryl!!
Gosh having meryl streep honor u... i can go to heaven now thx ❤
Congratulations
Where is the full show?
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Stanley Kubrick was American.
What jewellery on Meryl?
Sure...she is an actress.... Envy? No. Awe, I awe God! Way too much praise, and vanity! Kudos fo😮r presentation and thought. But, she is and will be only an actress. What makes her more???
Really? Nicole Kidman?? From BMX Bandits? *LOL*
Just my opinion but I don’t think she is a great actress.
Is that the only thing you know her from? LOL
@@viviennepastor3188Did you see Big Little Lies?? She won 2 well deserved Emmy’s for it.
@@vickiego1 yes I did. As I said just my opinion. I thought she was good in Dead Calm.
I expected a better speech from Meryl Streep.
Nicole seemed to like it just fine.
Narcissists don't give better speeches 😂😂
Good God. Actors and musicians never miss a chance to garner an extra pat on the back for themselves. The ones getting these awards are VERY well paid for playing make believe in front of the camera- it's not exactly like they're curing cancer or the like. A little bit of humble pie goes a long way.
This whole thing seems quite over your head. Thats OK, carry on with whatever comes your way in life.
@@toddleddy9966 I suppose you're vying for the Oscar for Best Patronizing Performance then?
@@nursejoed Nope, just serving you your humble pie.
@@toddleddy9966Right?! Nurse Joe doesn’t seem to understand their assignment. 😂
Narcissism is huge in hollyweird, remember when our little meryl here called Harvey Weinstein a god 😂😂😂
Why would she ruin her face like thaaaaat
Why aren’t they standing when she came out??
She suffered Trump Derangement Syndrome ..... Oh and ......😮, she called the late Harvey Weinstein a god 😂😂😂
Hate me all you want but I kinda like the speeches of Naomi and Reese better. More natural.
Great words. Could do without all the hemming and hawing dramatics.
Your brain is a really bland place isn’t it? I would unalive myself. But, hey. That’s just me.
@@falsettogod5853 Drama queen much?
Meryl, no thanks, not this time.
What does that even mean? 😂
Generosity and love are so damn freaking sexy!
Streep needs to retire. She’s done a good job but enough is enough
I absolutely agree!! No more of Streep
Trump called her a washed up hasbeen 😂
Harvey Weinsteins best friend
Yawn
🤮🤮🤮
UGH! Surprised DeNiro isn't with her so they can try to push their political choice on us, thinking they really make a difference on our choice!
omg Get over yourself Susan.
I think Meryl is great. And…I actually thought it was tacky for her to joke about being ‘incessantly called the greatest actress of her generation.’ I think everyone laughed because what the hell else can you do? You’re not supposed to talk about yourself at a tribute for someone else!
Did you not get the humour?!
The joke.
You.
Yes I do. Absolutely. It just wasn’t my cup of tea.
You nailed it! I was thinking the same thing.
I get what you’re saying- but at the same time- it’s Interesting that Meryl bring that up, brings up that phrase- during this speech about Nicole. She goes on to say some things about Nicole that we don’t often hear her say, which I find intriguing. Regardless, it is true- that Meryl IS incessantly called the best living film actor- she’s heard it a lot, we’ve all heard it a lot. So in a way it was nice to hear her address it. She’s said before that “there is no such thing as” that, too.
Free Palestine 🇵🇸
No to bravery but yes to recklessness?
way to try to word salad for effect.
Fell flat.
Speech was blah, not sure what everyone is impressed by.
Most of the speeches were people talking about themselves.
Kidman is not as wonderful as she's made out to be.
Streep is so arrogant and Kidman's had waaay too much plastic surgery.
Me-OW!
Streep is egotistic and full of herself! Very annoying
Both terrible
Biden/Harris 2024 💙🇺🇸🌈🏳️⚧️
