Meryl Streep has always been my favorite actress!! Love her ❤️

I think my favorite of these are "Out of Africa", "Adaptation", "The Devil Wears Prada", and "Sophie's Choice". Surprised "Ironweed" didn't make this list, as that's one of my two favorite performances/films of her, along with "Sophie's Choice". "The Deer Hunter" was a great movie, but I didn't think she had much screen time in it. I haven't seen "Doubt" or "The Iron Lady" yet, but hear they are outstanding as well. She's been in so many great movies. Fantastic actor!

I saw her for the first time in: Falling in Love (1984) with Robert de Niro. And since then ... only memorable movies. Top actress!

Meryl should've won the Oscar for Doubt....one of her best performances EVER! Right after watching the trailer for the film I immediately thought the Oscar was hers!

Such a talented, beautiful actress. I remember when Leonardo Dicaprio said, ”Meryl Street is his #1 favourite actress actress”. She truly the best. The bridges of Madison County was such a tear jerker and a bitter sweet movie. Love can be so painful. She played that role with perfection!❤

[debrareibsamen]

How about just do Meryl Streeps list of movies?? Each and every one was outstanding in one way or another. Meryl can do any character, in any setting, with any accent, with any other actor/actress. She is the queen of the movie screen!

[timgriffin]

I would Easily say Out of Africa is the best of these films. Her performances, Sophie's Choice, film overall, Out of Africa!!!

[JeffreyKenison]

I liked her best in The Deer Hunter (1978). I also liked her in Kramer vs. Kramer (1979; won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress), Sophie's Choice (1982; won an Oscar for Best Actress), The Bridges of Madison County (1995), The Hours (2002) and The Post (2017).

[miralongfield]

I am missing there movie It's complicated ;-) She is awesome!

[uniquelyfierce]

How can The Iron Lady be in honorable mention and not top 5, afterall she won an Oscar for it. This list was also stupidly countdown

[DaddaKiKhariKhari]

Sophie's choice is indeed the best

[tinkukhanna]

Surprised to find Julie vs. Julia not making up to the list. Actually, it's indeed difficult to select 10 best out of all the great performances of Meryl Streep.
