Meryl Streep

Meryl Streep, Shirley MacLaine

Sony Pictures, 1994

Wow
It takes a pretty spectacular person to take a difficult childhood, drug addictions, and relationships gone wrong, and turn all that into a screenplay that is funny and witty. That's exactly what Carrie Fisher did in Postcards from the Edge, a must-see movie. And don't ...

She-Devil

Meryl Streep, Roseanne

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

A Dose Of Reality Is Sometimes The Best Revenge
This is a movie you can watch over and over and still enjoy its karmic delights. Meryl Streep's Mary Fisher is the too-good-to-be-true glamourous romance writer. With a flick of her perfect pink nails, she sets about stealing Roseanne Barr's Ruth Patchett's none ...

The House of the Spirits

Meryl Streep, Jeremy Irons

Live / Artisan, 2001

AN OUTSTANDING FAMILY SAGA...
I love this movie! It has a stellar cast, who give top notch performances. How can you go wrong with Jeremy Irons, Meryl Streep, Glenn Close, Antonio Banderas, Winona Ryder, Vanessa Redgrave, and Armin Muehler-Stahl? The answer is that you can't. It is a riveting piece ...

Out of Africa

Meryl Streep, Robert Redford

Universal Studios, 1992

So good
I remember going to see this in the theater. It is still a vivid love story - between her and Africa, as well as her and Denis.

Music of the Heart

Meryl Streep, Angela Bassett

Miramax/ Walt Disney Home Video, 2000

Very Inspiring
This is a story of a determined young single mother who as she takes control of her own life, inspires others, including her own children to accomplish amazing things. I love music, and this movie is very inspirational in every way. It shows what a little ...

Ironweed

Jack Nicholson, Meryl Streep

Vestron Video, 1994

Perfect screen adaption of a classic book
I saw this movie on cable many years ago and did not get it. Fast foward to about ten years later and I discovered William Kennedys "Albany Trio" at the library. When I finally got to the last of the trio tales I read "Ironweed" in one day and then went out and rented ...

Seduction of Joe Tynan

Alan Alda, Barbara Harris

Universal Studios, 2000

Best Political Film Ever
This is the best political film ever made. Other films distort, simplify or just plain get wrong what federal politics is like at the highest levels. As one who used to work in the White House, I can tell you that this is the only film that understands and reveals ...

The Deer Hunter

Robert De Niro, Christopher Walken

MCA/Universal Home Video, 1992

A defining film in the long history of war movies
Deer Hunter is the story of a group of young American men prior to, during and after their service as GI's in Vietnam. It is a powerful, intimate and realistic movie that touches the very soul of the American Dream. The young men are innocent, a bit lost in their ...

Holocaust (The Mini-Series) (SP mode)

Tom Bell, Joseph Bottoms

Republic Pictures, 1995

Holocaust DVD Review
I first saw this series as a 9 year old on TV in 1979 and I really loved it back than. At that age, most of the ideas of the series went straight over my head. I have seen the series on DVD in 2008 and this is really awesome. It's really worth watching. And also serves ...

Falling in Love

Robert De Niro, Meryl Streep

Paramount, 1995

A true gem that deserves more recognition
Even after all these years, this remains one of my favorite love stories. It is a different kind of love story though..the two main protagonists played by Robert de Niro and Meryl Streep are married to other people, yet a chance encounter leads to another meeting, and ...

Silkwood

Meryl Streep, Kurt Russell

Paramount Home Video

Silkwood: One Of The Best
Wonderful intriguing movie. Makes you wonder and Think, like a good movie should. I hope Mike Nichols decides to do a movie on the 2008 Presidential Primary race: how Hillary Clinton received more votes than any of her rivals, and more votes than any Presidential ...

Still of the Night

Roy Scheider, Meryl Streep

MGM (Video & DVD), 1996

The Hitchcock Touch
This is a terrific little suspense thriller that's just waiting for rediscovery on DVD. Director Robert Benton, fresh from his triumph with KRAMER VS. KRAMER, turned his attention to that most popular pastime of modern directors--paying homage to the giants of the ...

Sophie's Choice

Meryl Streep, Kevin Kline

Live Home Video, 1992

Seeing this movie would be the right choice...
I think that `Sophie's Choice' is not a film you can enjoy the first go around. No, I think it takes at least two viewings before you can behold all that the film really represents. It's kind of like `Million Dollar Baby', another film that doesn't really make an ...
