Meryl Streep Week (Sophie’s Choice, Death Becomes Her, August: Osage County, Mamma Mia!)

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we celebrate the incomparable, Meryl Streep. Watching these films from throughout her career really showcases her range and confirms that she is an actor that only comes around every now and again. Before we dive into our movie reviews, Ailish has some industry news to share, and Hannah gives her thoughts on I Know What You Did Last Summer (2025) and Sorry, Baby.

There are so many films we could have chosen to focus on this week, but we ended up selecting films we mostly haven’t seen before or haven’t recently watched. Sophie’s Choice is the oldest of the bunch and probably Streep’s most notable role. She is such a standout in this film, but we couldn't help but feel like she wasn’t really the main character, as she should have been. Death Becomes Her was a great one to watch coming out of October, and it’s a film that’s had a resurgence in recent years. This one is so campy and fun! August: Osage County received a lot of acclaim when it was released in 2013. While we thought the acting was believable and the story was compelling, it just felt like something was off with this one. Finally, we come to our rewatch of Mamma Mia! It was so enjoyable to watch this one since it had been a while since we’d both seen it, and our fond memories of this film came flooding right back!

What are some of your favorite Meryl Streep films? Let us know and we’ll add them to the list for a part two we’ll record sometime in the future. If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating. If you write us a nice review, DM us and we’ll send you some of our new stickers!
