Meryl Streep was my hero. I wanted to be that type of actor more than anything.

I would watch anything with Meryl Streep in it.

Meryl Streep is exactly as awesome as you would imagine Meryl Streep to be.

As an actress, I really love people like Anna Magnani and Debra Winger. I also think there is nobody better than Meryl Streep.

Wittiness turns me on more than anything else.

Before I do a movie, I watch Meryl Streep movies over and over. It's not to mimic her. It's to remind myself to be more committed.
