Miscellaneous Movie Musings

I, too, am SHOCKED Meryl Streep is nominated for best actress. And I am one who finds Devil Wears Prada a delightful piece of fluff. There's nothing wrong with it ... it's a comedy, and it's cute and it's funny.

But best actress? Um, no. There was no work for her at all in this role. And she really did not have a lead role, despite being the titular character. (heheh, I said "titular").

I don't know what the Academy might have been thinking, except that perhaps it's some sort of law that Streep must be nominated. (Frankly, she did a much finer piece of acting in Prairie Home Companion.)
