If we wanna get Meryl Streep on this thread it should probably be for The Bridges of Madison County. At the time it was hailed by some as her best role in years. (Before this she was in SheDevil, Defending Your Life, Death Becomes Her and The River Wild (and a small role in House of the spirits)). For some reason critics weren’t into her comedies. I think her Oscar nom for The Bridges of Madison County is her longest gap between Oscar nominations.

The way her performance in Death Becomes Her is one of her best… Maybe people just love her being hammy and “transformative” while hating her real talent which is comedic (or dramatic) line reading.
