Oscar Special

Nominee Spotlight: Meryl Streep

Oscar SpecialYou can call her Miss Oscar.

Two-time Oscar winner Meryl Streep holds the record for the most number of nominations, now totalling a whopping 14!

This year, Streep seems almost nominated by default for her stellar turn in otherwise unspectacular comedy hit, The Devil Wears Prada. But while the film itself might not be memorable...

"Streep makes it work. Streep makes it fun. Best known for her dramatic brilliance, Streep has done strong comedic turns in the past, and this performance is a reminder of that, and then some. Miranda is riveting -- when she's in the room, every muscle fiber of every other human being in her general proximity is acutely aware of, in awe of and afraid of her presence. When Streep's on the screen, she has the same effect on her audience; she totally commands every scene." | Read Jennifer Frey's complete review at The Washington Post
