    Meryl Streep is just the best actress and anyone who thinks otherwise should rethink EVERYTHING. Meryl is my role model. she deserves every single award that she has ever won. She is so beautiful and the best at what she does.

      +susan jane I love Meryl but it doesn't mean she is worthy of admiration.
      I just only look up to Kate Hepburn for her fierce independence and strong-willed personality (personal life not just on screen). Meryl is a scheming opportunist.#she knows

      soz but "fierce independence" dont be fooled by film roles and real life you should read her bio. she chose to devote herself to an alcoholic man who refused to divorce his wife (Spencer Tracy) and belittled her in front of their friends including sitting at his feet after dinner parties.
      Personally I have no problem if a woman chose to allow herself to be treated like and I still love some of her films but I dont quite get the connection between being fond of one actress and finding it a reason to be rude about a great actress

    • @screenactorsguilable
      @screenactorsguilable 8 років тому +1

      @111739167928144203486 I am disrespectful towards Meryl.
      What i am trying to say is that Kate had a lot of hardships and she managed to surpass them and become a great screen legend and most importantly, a greatest human being.of living independently among actors in general. Furthermore, I know she has her weaknesses but she still has such forceful energy to live on, crafting more greater performances. It is her spirit that shines here.
      By constrast, Meryl is just a mediocre "fine" example of the scheming actress and opportunist - human being. Her life had nothing for other actresses to learn from except for being opportunists. In fact, I am not talking about ""inspiration"" or "talents" because without a doubt, to become a successful one, you have to be talented and skillful enough to get on.
      In short, she is still not worth being admired because of just making use of the resources "available" from other actresses to make it become hers.
      Above all, KH should be taken much more credit in a capacity as a "human being" than the other. Hail her !!!

      All things considered, she is not worthy of admiration.

    I just realized that Meryl Streep has one hell of a year in 2011/2012 in then award season. In reference to Tracy Ullman, Meryl won the Oscar, Golden Globe, and BAFTA for her profound performance as Margaret Thatcher in The Iron Lady. I didn't know she was honored at the Kennedy Year during the same season. Meryl Streep is truly won of the greatest actresses and I foresee that she carry on with an amazing and successful career. I believe Meryl can tie Katherine Hepburn with a record number of 4 Academy Awards! We believe in you Meryl Streep. Eat. Sleep. Meryl Streep.

    Indeed, for over 40 years, there has been a TRUE ACTRESS, THE MOST TALENTED, THE MOST LOVED and (on merit) THE MOST PRAISED by all those who love and know what "Artistic Film" is .... this actress is MERYL STREEP .... there are a few other great actresses who have asserted themselves in time in special movies, but (maybe I'm subjective) no other actress is worth the artistic talent of Meryl Streep .... thank God that I am contemporary with this great DIVA of world cinema .... to be nominated 17 times for the famous OSCAR is a performance that has never been and will never be in cinema .... "God bless you Meryl Streep"! ...

      I had the good fortune to wait on Meryl Streep and her family at a restaurant i worked at in Salisbury Connecticut years ago. (About 1999 I think) she was down to earth and warm. When I told her how her scene in the Library in Sophies Choice brought me to tears to told me that the actor who played the librarian in that scene was her best friend from college. I felt comfortable talking with her unlike some other celebrities i met thru thr years. She truly is a national treasure. A class act.

    I almost died when I saw this last night. Meryl is of course simply the best. Love Anne number and the reaction on Meryl face when Anne did that split is priceless. I saw the whole thing and Meryl cried alot during it. Especially during the Barbara Cook tribute. Many thanks for the upload.

    It is a wonderful tribute in every way you can tell. Greatness from everybody.
    I am American Movies Film Historian and Filmmaker because of that.
    It is what I admired from the Americans all my life: that sensation of not having a profile of arrogance but treating the tribute with elegance, sense of humor, without any vanity or whatsoever.
    Formidable in every way.
    This includes the camera operator and director, who takes Kevin Kline saying to Hathaway a kind of
    'Well done' (you can read his lips), absolutely spontaneous and out of any kind of rehearsal.
    Even that, it is formidable (Hathaway was extraordinary).
    Organization, education, grace, talent...
    The greatness I always loved.
    About Meryl Streep, it is impossible to define her.

      @seamus1956 8 років тому +10

      +Elizabeth Adams I gave to disagree. While Miss Andrews is a terrific actress, and a master in musical theater and film, she has nowhere near the versatility of Meryl Streep. The amazing acting range she demonstrates is second to none, which is why she has more Oscar nominations (19) than anyone else in history (Jack Nicholson holds the men's record with 12) and she is the only woman to have been nominated for Discard in 5 different decades - joining Laurence Olivier, Paul Newman, Michael Caine and Jack Nicholson. She has also been nominated 35 times for People's Choice Awards and her genius has translated to television with 3 Primetime Emmy nominations (2 wins). Meryl Streep is one of the greatest film actresses of all time.

    What an amazing lady. It was great to see her so relaxed and healthy. She just radiates. It was fun seeing her enjoying herself throughout the whole program, rocking to Neil Diamond, and mesmerized with the music during the Yo-Yo Ma tribute. She was soo sweet and touching with the silent tears.

    The finest two hours television has had in years. Meryl Streep reigns supreme and Anne Hathaway is a mega talented gem! Would someone please give her her own Broadway show?
