The book has been sitting on my shelf for months.... I really need to read it.
The thing is, Meryl doesn't even NEED Oscar bait. She's won her fair share already, and her prestige as an actress isn't defined by her awards. She's just internationally accepted to be one of the most talented actors of our time.
(I have a major major Meryl crush, if no one can tell).
