Streep's Miranda Priestly dominated Devil Wears Prada, even when she wasn't on screen - a testament to her iconic characterization.
OMG OSCARMAN!
And at the Oscars ceremony when she did a little ad lib from her seat with Anne and Emily was icing on the cake.
I love my Robert DeNiro, my Al Pacino, Jack Nicholson or Marlon Brando, but no actor ever, regardless of their gender, has given me the kind of feelings Meryl Streep has. In 2017, I decided to buy every film she got Oscar-nominated for on DVD, and watched them all in just a few weeks. It was a masterclass in acting, simple as that. So many memorable characters with so many layers and depth. She is indeed a cinematic treasure:) She will be 75 shortly. May she live another 20 years at least!
I have a same experience. I felt in love with her through "Devils" and never seen any of her films before. In 2008, after "Mamma Mia!', I decided to watch all of her Oscar-nominated films and felt overwhelmed after. "She has so many 'crystal masks'! How could she do it!?" - I said to myself.
Agreed, instead of Streep for Florence Foster Jenkins, Amy Adams should've been nominated for Arrival. What a strong, layered performance, especially seeing how the story's structure hinges on there not being a bum note in her acting.
now why would you comment this of all things under a video about Meryl, this isn’t a video about the 2017 Oscar nominations
@@EvaSofieHe makes the same point in the video, saying Adams should've been nominated for Arrival instead of Streep for Florence Foster Jenkins.
@@AtlasBlizzard in a video that’s about Meryl’s nominations not the 2017 race, so it’s weird to comment about someone else on a video that’s about Meryl
@@EvaSofie Because they are addressing one aspect of the video lol. It's weird that you're so hung up about this. I'm sure Meryl Streep will survive.
@@EvaSofie just add 'instead of Meryl Streep' when you read that comment, I hope that helps it sound more relevant for you
My husband was so affected by Sophie's Choice that he saw it once and swore he'd never watch it again.
I agree. Another film is Grave of the Fireflies. It’s an animated film but it’s way too realistic. Once is all I need to watch for that film too.
I agree with him, it's a masterpiece but it's too painful to sit through again.
Same for me.
Another is
Brokeback Mountain
My favorite modern actress ever. Meryl Streep is a legend, truly one of the all-time greatest actors. Her performance in Sophie's Choice was truly SPECTACULAR! A true career defining role. I loved her performance in August Osage: County as well.
Agree with all of this!

For her third Oscar it should have been for either Doubt , Julie and Julia, The Devil Wears Prada or The Post .
Should have been nominated for Death Becomes Her and The Hours.
A Cry In The Dark and The French Lieutentant's Woman are her most underrated nominations.
A cry in the Dark is her best performance
@@Starkardur It's a very underrated performance despite the nomination.
I think she could’ve easily won for death becomes her she’s amazing in the film
@@mo6live She's amasing in that one .Comedy should be rewarded more often.
The post? That was the baddest of all her oscar noms. Sonu deserving of a nom..jessica chastain and Diane Kruger were so robbed that year.
It’s cool that you’ve done a video ranking her Oscar nominations Brian. Thank you for the video, I hope you’re doing well. Take care!
I think Meryl Streep got an Oscar nomination for into the woods based off her performance of the song Last Midnight
As a hopeful romantic my favorite performance of hers will always be the Bridges of Madison County. She should have won over Susan Sarandon. Everything is subjective but that is her performance I love the best.
when I rewatch Bridges..
I just keep saying....
'open the door....open the door....'
I want Francesca to run to Kincaid SO much💔
Merry’s August osage county’s performance criminally underrated, she should have receive more recognition for that role 🔥💯 I haven’t seen that kind of brash and drunken woman performance from an actress better than Meryl , Hatts off 🫡💯
Strongly agree! She should have won her 3rd Oscar for that, that would have been more of a right choice......
I completely agree. It's definitely in my Top 10. I think some critics unfairly accused Meryl of chewing the scenery. But the character of Violet is written as having fits of histrionics....and with good reason: she's a drug-addled elderly woman who's dying of cancer and is in considerable physical pain on a regular basis (as well as emotional pain of course). So I don't think Meryl's performance comes across in any way as "showy" - just realistic. Plus her character doesn't act that way throughout the entire film, which makes sense considering the ups and downs someone in her condition would be experiencing.
I always cite the "cowboy boots" scene as an example of one of Violet's more restrained moments. And I think it's probably the most affecting scene in the movie. I compare it somewhat to the "getting divorced" scene from Prada. It really gives the viewer some insight into why this miserable, seemingly horrible human being acts the way she does. And Meryl of course performs it beautifully.
Perhaps a little verbose on my part regarding this topic - LOL - but I thought I'd use your positive comment about OOC as a chance to share my similar view that Meryl does tremendous work in that film.
@@richardherdman2121 yes, Meryl is always trying to do something new to the cinema , Her character is a drunken woman and she nailed it , that is her power actually, no one did that kind of brash performance , it was work out strongly between Meryl and Julia 🔥❤️💯 That’s why we love her 🫡
So much this! Her first scene in the film makes this easily in my top 10, if not 5, of her nominations.
Agreed
Do Katherine Hepburn next!!
it's impossible for me to rank the 21 performances, so i would rank my top 10 instead : here it is
1) Sophie's Choice
2) The devil wears Prada
3) Doubt
4) Out of Africa
5) Kramer vs Kramer
6) Julie & Julia
7) The Post
8) The Bridges of Madison County
9) The French Lieutnant's woman
10) The Iron Lady
🥰😍🤩😘😗☺🙂🙃 bye
This was a phenomenal list! Thank you for mentioning Death Becomes Her!...Truly one of my favorites!!😊👍
People will nitpick her performances and nominations but I just want to remind everyone to not take a talent and human like Meryl for granted. 🙏🏻
Agreed! I find this segment he's done on Streep very entitled. From what I know he's neither an actor or a teacher.
Agreed she’s amazing. She will elevate anything she’s in automatically. Picking any of her performances as being less than is blasphemy.
Ohh shush . Nobody is doing that. But some nominations shouldn't have had happened
@@lynnkingpin no, you shush. If only you had had a teacher like Meryl in music of the heart, Or a mother like Meryl in One True Thing. Then maybe you would know better than to tell people to shush. One would think you were raised by Meryl in Into The Woods. For shame.
@@aysadaGreat performances..but some yrs she shouldn't have been
I still think she should have won for Doubt, no doubt about it. She also should have won for Devil Wears Prada. She should have 4 with Kramer and Sophie being her other two. Very good job, Brian.
I used to always think people were referencing some classic romcom about a woman having to choose between two guys whenever they said "this is a real Sophie's choice" just for me to find out it originated from a movie about A MOM HAVING TO CHOOSE WHICH ONE OF HER TWO CHILDREN TO SAVE
I so agree that her third win should have been for Doubt. That was the finest performance of that year.
One of my favorite performances although not Oscar movie stuff is "It's Complicated" with Steve Martin as Streep's leading man. I love that movie and will watch it any time I find it playing.
Meryl Streep in "Sophie's choice" and Glenn Close in "Dangerous liaisons". These are my two favorite performances of the 80s. And of all time i think
💯 agree..I mean no one in the history of Academy Awards or in any acting categories of any awards or any actors and actresses in a movie or television can compare with Meryl's performance in Sophie's Choice....That performance is iconic and legendary❤
I love Meryl but for some reason it feels deeply satisfying when you slaughter some of her nominations. 😂😂
Same! 😂
I think it’s because he uses logic and expresses it so well that he’s speaking for us lol
For years, I didn't really get the Meryl hype. I thought she was fine. But then I finally saw Sophie's Choice and I said to myself "I totally get it now". That performance (especially the choice scene) is one of the best ever put to film.
For me itjer way around.i loved her so much and still sthinks she was just spectacular and unmatched from the late 70s till the 2000s, but the last 15 years she got so many undeserving oscar noms and becomes a little bit overrated.
Brian, you're an absolute legend for this. Thank you for taking the time to go through her impressive performances over the decades. Have immense love for her performances in Sophie's Choice, The Bridges Of The Madison County, Doubt, Kramer Vs. Kramer, Adaptation, Julie & Julia, Silkwood, Devil Wears Prada, Postcards From The Edge, French Lieutenant's Woman, A Cry In The Dark, and so many others! On The Iron Lady, it's not controversial. It wouldn't make my top 20, let alone my top 10. I wouldn't have The Post in my top 10, but I respect others that do. August: Osage County is one of her best for me. Hell, Sarah Paulson's Tony win for her performance in Appropriate feels very reminiscent of that so I feel it's rightfully strong and influential in that regard. Agreed that Death Becomes Her would have made an all timer nomination, and her performance in The Hours should have been there too, she did make Globes & BAFTA so I don't think she was far off. Thanks, Brian ❤
Doubt is my pick for favorite Streep nomination. The obvious choice might be Sophie’s Choice for many but to me it’s a testament to how just fantastic of an actress she is. You can debate for hours abt what her career-best performance is within the top ten and no one would be technically incorrect.
Thank you for the shout-out to A Cry in the Dark...great performance in underrated movie
I noticed some movies on your shelf featuring Meryl Streep, The Devil Wears Prada, Music of the Heart and Kramer vs. Kramer.
I live about two hours from Winterset, Iowa ... where the Bridges are located and the film was made. (It's also the birthplace of John Wayne, fyi). I was devastated by that film. I cried buckets at the ending. It actually took me a day or two to shake it off. That is the magic of Meryl Streep. She gets into your head and shares her own at the same time. She's the greatest actress of her time. I agree 100% with your top ten. Especially with Doubt, Silkwood, et all.
I used to watch Sophie's Choice once a year. I had to stop, that film wrecks me every time. She's other wordly.
Great video.
Postcards and a Cry in the Dark are two of her most underrrated noms and performances. I can even say that Meryl may have given her best performance in A Cry in the Dark.
I've always considered A Cry in the Dark her greatest performance after Sophie's Choice.
I see what you did with your DVD collection. 😂 I loved Florence Foster Jenkins. She was so funny and very moving.
I will never forget how disappointed I was that Meryl didn't win an Oscar for "Doubt." That long multi-decade Oscar drought SHOULD have ended there. Great movie.
I would have loved to have seen her win for "Julie & Julia" as well.
Despite being a huge fan of Meryl Streep, somehow I never saw "Bridges of Madison County" until very recently. (I think I avoided it because Clint Eastwood bugs me.) What an amazing performance she gave!!! Brilliant. (True to form, I was really irritated that Eastwood had the NERVE to give himself top billing over Meryl Streep in the credits. It's just absurd.)
I think the only Oscar winning performance that is up there in the S-tier cielings with Meryl Streep in Sophie's Choice is Vivien Leigh in Gone With The Wind.
My thoughts:
I agree on The Iron Lady, Streep's performance was excellent, but the movie itself is very poor. It's also uncomfortably exploitative with all the scenes of elderly Margaret Thatcher suffering from Alzheimer's.
Julie & Julia should've been her third Oscar, her performance as Julia Child is full of life and just a delight to watch every step of the way. A much better biopic role than The Iron Lady. A great movie (the Julia parts at least) that always makes me hungry, lol. Her performance is close to the top for me.
Streep called The French Lieutenant's Woman the worst movie she's made, lol.
I can never watch Sophie's Choice again. It was too devastating, especially the titular scene.
Great video! I need to watch The Bridges of Madison County now.
This video with my breakfast, thanks homie
The video we’ve all been waiting for- well done!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I knew this was going to be your longest video. I absolutely love her in the Devil Wears Prada, the River Wild, Kramer vs Kramer, Death Becomes Her, Doubt, Sophie's Choice and the Bridges of Madison County.
Streep really elevated the Devil Wears Prada from a book that’s just rants about an old boss into a feminist manifesto about modern women in the workplace.
Agreed “Doubt” and “Cry in the Dark” amazing performances. I loved “Out of Africa” her performance in that really moves me. Especially when begging for land for the Kikuyu and her reading the poem at the burial. I think that should be higher up. As Sophia Loren said ….”the astonishing, astonishing Meryl Streep!” Thank you for this video, great job.
I remember watching Sophie's Choice years ago, after reading all the praises critics have lavished on her performance, and thinking to myself: ok what's so great about it? But as the movie unfolded, I got more and more absorbed by both the film and her totally devastating performance, absolutely in tears by the end of it. It's a performance that even now makes me tear up when I think about it. By far her best role... and I'm glad she won an Oscar for it.
When you got to Into the Woods, you should've played Jared Leto's joke when he presented the Oscar that ceremony. I love Into the Woids, but it kinda perfectly summed it up:
"Tonight, we honor four great women, and in accordance with California state law, Meryl Streep."
I thought Glenn Close should have won for Albert Nobbs. That movie was way over looked.

The last 6 I wouldnt nominate her, but she definitly should be nominated for The Hours and Death becomes her.
Need a Jack Nicholson Oscar ranking video!
Deserved a nod for The Hours...all 3 leads deserved to be nominated for best actress its that good but particularly Streep...
The G.O.A.T.
Doubt, Bridges of Madison County & Devil Wears Prada also deserves Oscar
I agree about Susan S and Meryl in Madison county but that Oscar still belongs to Sharon Stone to me
Great video, Brian! Your hard work never goes unappreciated. This kind of content is my favourite thing about YT.
My top five would be; Sophie's Choice, Silkwood, Postcards from the Edge, August: Osage County and Adaptation.
Great video as usual from you. I really don’t know how it is that you don’t have a major syndicated TV show. So thorough and great presentation.
I’d love to see you cover Frances Mc Dormund. The academy sure loves her, as do I btw.
Thanks for the Streep series ❤
I thought for sure, at the end when mentioning what she should have been nominated for, that you were going to discuss The Hours. But you went with Death Becomes Her, lol. Not sure I can go there with you but her performance in it was fantastic.
(I think you mentioned this in another video, but is there a director with more variable quality output than Robert Zemeckis? Can’t think of one offhand.)
I did a double take when I learned that he made that horrendous Pinocchio remake, lol.
It feels like Adaptation is a little low. That would be one of the wins I'd give her, she's truly unforgettable in that film.
Loved the video! Watching from Brazil
1.) Sophie's Choice, 2.) The Bridges of Madison County, 3.) The Devil Wears Prada, 4.) SHE-DEVIL, 5.) Kramer vs Kramer
I think this is the ranking video we were all waiting for, even if wd all knew what No. 1 would be! Obviously, Sophie's Choice is her master class but I was pleased to see my favorite Streep performance in Bridges where it was on the list!
Always love your videos and how prolific you are. Keep them coming!
Does it bother anyone that it took her twenty nine years to win a third Oscar but it only took Frances McDormand three? I don’t consider McDormand in the same league as Streep or Hepburn or Bergman.
I don't get how Frances McDormand has three Oscars either. In no way does she display the same versatility as Meryl or other actresses like Cate Blanchett who only has two. And to be frank Katharine Hepburn always came off as just Katharine Hepburn to me no matter the role she played. Meryl got all the roles, praise, worship and nominations for decades. Not feeling sorry for her having to wait that long for her 3rd Oscar. I thought she should have won her third for "A Cry in the Dark" back in the '80s.
.
TOTALLY AGREE! It bothers me too!
If McDormand have 3 (!) Meryl should have already her 4th!
That scene in the rain in Bridges.....absolutely devastating!!!
I couldn’t agree with you more on her win for Iron Lady! It hurt to see Viola Davis lose, but Meryl Streep is a legend! 💯📠
I never get tired of Meryl's content. Plz keep doing it. Haha.
gosh, i balled my eyes out watching the bridges of madison county, it was such a heartbreaking love story. and as a german i can attest that in sophies choice she speaks german with an eastern european/slavic accent. if its truly a polish accent i cant say, but her accent was very authentic!
Postcards from the edge should be top five. the movie is fantastic. She is phenomenal. This was massively underrated on your part.
Maybe I'm not discerning, but Florence Foster Jenkins is one of my favourite Meryl characters ... she CAN sing so to sing so badly and out of tune on camera ... it's highly entertaining to watch. I loved that movie.
Annette Benning in American Beauty, Hilary Swank in Boy's Don't Cry, Reese Witherspoon in Election, Kirsten Dunst in The Virgin Suicides, and Cecilia Roth in All About My Mother. These should've been the 1999 Best Actress Nominees with Annette Benning winning.
Hell to the Fuck no.
I agree with all, but not in bening winning. Swank deserved that win for sure
Meryl Streep has said she thinks her performance in French Lieutenant's Woman was massively overrated. (Graham Norton Show, 2016)
There's a video edit of Julie and Julia that only features the Julia bits. I prefer it.
I *loved* Florence Foster Jenkins (film and performance from Streep) so much more than Iron Lady (film and performance).
I love this kinda thing, though. Thank you!
Couldn’t agree more on A Cry in The Dark; it’s criminally underrated and deserves more love and mention. The performance is flawless!!
Good job, Brian! For me, her Iron Lady performance ranks a lot higher. I know a lot of people are not crazy about that film. I saw what she did as a master class in acting, and, for me, that was the film. I also rank A Cry in the Dark and Prada higher.
Hi Brian! I would really love if you used chapters in your videos - it would make them so much easier to watch especially when I'm not able to watch a video all in one sitting 😊
I wholeheartedly agree with your choices, especially the top 3, I have watched Sophie's Choice only once, because it was just soooo heart wrenching, but I will never ever forget it or her performance
Love Meryl Streep and i loved your video. I pretty much agree with you especially about Bridges of Madison County and of course her best performance in Sophie's Choice! She truly is a master of accents. No one comes close to the way she becomes the character
Thank you! With a (very) few minor quibbles, but Doubt, Bridges, Sophie-absofuckinglutely!
This is a wonderful piece of criticism. Bravo.
Thanks for another excellent video, Brian! I agree with your choices.
Please give a rank ing of Glenn close oscar nominations and her top 3 performance for which she wasn't nominated @the academy contender +the academy contender
Although Meryl is not my favorite actress, I am here to support Brian, 52minutes is quite an effort.
Well done! Thanks a lot ❤
Meryl Streep definitely should have won Oscars for "Bridges of Madison County" and "Doubt." "Dead Man Walking" is a bland movie and Sarandon is a so-so actress. As with Streep not winning for "Doubt" it was simply Kate Winslet's time giving two extraordinary performances in the same year.
All Sophie’s choice has ever made me think of is how sure I am that my mother would pick my brother to live over me. Not because she loves him but because he’s the only human in the world who sees her the way that she wants to be seen. I have a hard time with that movie.
Meryl can do anything. Hell she can play me in a film and get an Oscar nomination out of it.
Into the woods, there was so much excitement around meryl streep performance because she was singing. The hype was so much, they marketed the movie around meryl streep singing

17 Osage county ? No way, Meryl Streep was absolutely wonderful in it.
I think and will always think that Meryl Streep should have won an Academy Award for her performance in The Devil Wears Prada. She is so much better, more complex, more compelling than anyone has a right to be. Gods, she was so good in that movie!!!!!!!
I don't agree with many of your comments and opinions about the nominations, especially about IRONWEED, which is a fantastic movie! Also saying over and over again that she chose roles as Oscar baits, is really bad. You're making assumptions and bringing Streep to a lower level. This should not be your approach. And obviously you don't like many of her movies. So I ask myself why you do segments on Meryl Streep?? Likes baiting?? Not impressed. Her films, including IRON LADY & ONE TRUE THING are great!
Doubt was amazing and she was indeed amazing in it.
1. Cry in the Dark
2. Sophies Choice
3. Prada
4. Kramet
5. Bridges
6. One True Thing
7. August
8. Silkwood
9. Ironweed
10. Adaptation
I would have put POSTCARDS FROM THE EDGE at number two. What a great performance! I loved her in that movie. SILKWOOD would have been number three. She should have won her third Oscar though for A CRY IN THE DARK.
I think the same way. Was blown away by that performance. Also didn't hurt that Sam Neill was in it. I've loved him since My Brillant Career.
BTW, great ranking overall. I probably would have put Ironweed lower and Devil Wears Prada lower as well.
Sweet list. I would pop Postcards into the top 10, removing French Lt. Woman. Cry in the Dark and Silkwood, often forgotten performances, but 2 of my favs.
To Australian ears, Meryl's Australian accent in a "Cry in the Dark" was a bit off. But she was imitating Lindy Chamberlain who was of New Zealand origin - so a New Zealand/Australian hybrid.
Lindy Chamberlain had a distinct accent. Meryl wasn't doing a generic accent. She was doing Lindy.
Into The Woods is my fav all time Streep movie and performance
I lose my breath watching Meryl in movies. I have my favorites. She will always be one of my top five favorite actresses.
My ranking

2.doubt
3.august osage
4. Devil
5.iron lady
6.kramer
7. Adaptation
I haven't seen all of her films, but for me August In Osage County and The Iron Lady are my Top 2. I started Sophie's Choice but I just couldn't get past the first couple of scenes. I forgot about Doubt! It was surprisingly good. My God, that scene with Viola Davis was gut-wrenching!!!
6. The Post (as Katharine Graham)
5. Out of Africa (as Baroness Karen von Blixen)
4. Florence Foster Jenkins (as Florence Foster Jenkins)
3. Julie and Julia (as Julia Child)
2. Kramer vs. Kramer (as Joanna Stern Kramer)
1. Sophie's Choice (as Zofia Zawistowska)
Haven't seen her other nominations yet.
Film I would nominate her for: Little Women (as Aunt March)
Sophie's Choice is the only thing I ever saw that made my tough as iron, truck driving, once beat a guy with a crowbar grandpa cry.
Amazing video ❤❤❤
Long list of mereel streep
Amazing she get alot of nomnations for her all role
❤❤❤❤
It's so objectively obvious that Meryl's worst nom was Florence and the verry best one was Sophie's choice.
There can be any type of ranking between those two but these two movies are so no brainers!
Please do a video on ranking Meryl Streep's other performances that were not nominated for an Oscar. It can be top 20 or top 10. I bet Death Becomes Her is #1 and we can find others like The River Wild, Mamma Mia, Marvin's Room, Little Women in the ranking.
Brian actually did a video like this recently. Just check his recent uploads, you should find it easily. And (hint hint) I think you'll be very pleased with his choices! :)
Thole hours was her best not nominated for an oscar
My personal top 5 of her Oscar nominated performances:
1. The Bridges of Madison County
2. The Devil Wears Prada
3. A Cry in the Dark
4. Kramer vs. Kramer
5. Sophie’s Choice.
Streep in Manchurian Candidate should have been nominated. The film's plot is kinda silly but her performance is very memorable.
