Meryl Streep Surprised Of The Acting Offers She Still Gets

Meryl Streep admits she's past her "sell by date". The Oscar-winning actress can't believe she's still be offered roles in high-profile movies now she's reached 60 as she knows Hollywood discriminates against older women.
She said: "It's incredible - I'm 60, and I'm playing the romantic lead in romantic comedies. Bette Davis is rolling over in her grave. "I've been given great, weird, interesting parts well past my 'sell by date'. I remember saying to my husband Don when I was 38, 'Well, it's over.' And then we kicked the can down the road a little further." Meryl - who won the Best Actress Oscar for her role in 'Sophie's Choice' and the Best Supporting Actress for 'Kramer Vs Kramer' - also says she's given up worrying what people think of her.

JULIE & JULIA Movie Review

JULIE & JULIA (4 stars out of 5)
Over the weekend I went to see Julie & Julia with one of my girlfriends. I wasn't expecting much more than a fun and entertaining movie with a good cast, but we got so much more.
Julie & Julia follows the story of two women, Julia Child and Julie Powell, living in two different times, and the effect that cooking has on their lives.
I thought it would be easier to break this review down and look at each story separately.
Julia Child
Julia Child learned how to cook when she was 37, because she wanted to learn how to cook for her husband Paul, but also because she lived in France, loved to eat and wanted to find something to do to fill her days.
I didn't expect the movie to be as funny as it was, but I spend most of it laughing at scenes [...]

IT'S COMPLICATED Movie Trailer with Meryl Streep

Check out the trailer for IT'S COMPLICATED starring Meryl Streep, Steve Martin, Alec Baldwin, and directed by Nancy Meyers.
When I was watching the trailer, it reminded me a little bit of Something's Gotta Give with Dian Keaton and Jack Nicholson, which I then realized was written and directed by Nancy Meyers as well, so mystery solved.
I don't know if I'm in love with the trailer, although I enjoyed it. But with Meryl Streep involved, it kind of makes me want to see it.
It's Complicated will be released to theaters on December 25, 2009. Watch the trailer below.

THE FANTASTIC MR. FOX Movie Pictures

Check out the first pictures from THE FANTASTIC MR. FOX, a new Wes Anderson animation movie based on Roald Dahl's novel, that ComingSoon.net got their hands on.
Some of the cast lending their voices include George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Bill Murray, Michael Gambon, Owen Wilson, Helen McCrory, Willem Dafoe, Jason Schwartzman, Adrien Brody, Wes Anderson, Brian Cox, and Roman Coppola. It's quite the cast!
The story is about a fox named Mr Fox, who steals chickens, ducks, and turkeys from three farmers, Boggis, Bunce and Bean, in order to feed his family. However, the farmers, fed up with his stealing, try to kill Mr. Fox and his family.
The pictures definitely have an interesting look. The foxes look like they are puppets, kind like the ones you would see at Disneyland or something like that. I'm kind of intrigued to see them in action.
The Fantastic Mr. Fox is scheduled to be released to [...]
