Meryl Streep is the best actor evar.

I used to think she was the best of her generation, but she blows
Katherine Hepburn, Bettie Davis, etc., out of the water.

Those of you who live in Pennsylvania or western NY know this woman,
the character played by Streep.  Every thing about her delivery, the
accent, the intonation, the facial expression is dead on perfect.

She is a national treasure.

Arrrg, I want to plunder me national treasure.
