Why Meryl Streep should get the Oscar

Rating: 10/10 (31 January 2007)

To say Meryl Streep doesn't deserve an Oscar for her performance As Miranda Priestly is ludicrous at best. She brings a fluid motion to Miranda most of us would like to be able to achieve in our own lives. But what grabs hold of you and makes you sympathize with Miranda is at that moment she discusses with Andy about her second husband's departure from her life and how it affects her. All of a sudden I felt myself feeling her loss. Miss Streep's ability to make you believe she is the one of the characters she portrays tells me she is more than a performer; she is an entertainer, a person who through her tremendous talent has allowed me to forget my troubles for the length of this film. The entire film from start to finish was well put together. All aspects from music, lighting, camera angles, cinematography, costumes, even makeup were sewn together in this perfect dance.
