    How well I remember seeing Doubt in the theatre, and at the end of her scene, people were literally looking at each other with astonishment and asking who it was.

    Streep is as good a speaker as she is an actor, and that's a very tall order. But this might have been her absolute best delivery ever, equaled only by the talent of the recipient. In fact, she was so bloody good in "Doubt" than I'm actually going to watch it again today.

      Actually Meryl spoke at Viola’s Walk of Fame star unveiling just days before the Golden Globes that year so really Viola was responding to that so they’re just taking turns lol

    During that scene in “Doubt” between the two of them, I didn’t know Viola, but now it’s the scene that instantly springs to mind when I think of that movie. Viola Davis held her own against THEE Meryl and I knew she was a superstar. EGOT Queen!!!

    *This is how truly great artists and human beings are: They recognize the greatness and profound humanity in others, too. And they are generous in their affirmation and celebration of these qualities. They are great in their generosity. Time and again, on screen and in real life, Meryl Streep has demonstrated that she is, undeniably, one of our greatest-of all time.*

    Viola Davis belongs to the top of best actresses. If only we could have seen her debut so many years earlier! It makes me so aware that equal changes were so unfair in Hollywood.
    And still got a long way to go.
    I adore Viola, she is a queen. Paid hommage by another Queen.
