Hello :) i'm Meryl's bigest french fan haha. Can someone just explain me why is it she means exactly when she says "based on my body of work". I think I get it, but not very sure though :) thank you ! xx

@meryldepp she was being sarcastic....she was just joking trying to say that she doesn't really know why they choose her to do the flim..In other words, her "body of work" is just referring to what she has done in the past. Of course they would ask her to do it... she is amazing!! hope this makes sense in French.lol

These BAFTA vids are great!, wish they were longer. Does anyone know who the interviewer is?

Meryl is the best, so passionate, funny and natural.

She said "based on my body of work" Meaning based on all the movies and shows shes done lol.

Mamma mia! is a musical, and it has a lot of singing and dancing. Meryl Streep is a huge drama actress, By her "body of work" she means her filmography by also implies her own body (or age) because of the dancing involved in the movie.

Same thing....we saw Mama Mia right after 9/11 and Rudy Guiliani was in the audience and everyone gave him a standing ovation...it was amazing!

[BroadwayKidNamedJosh]

Why did they give rudy a standing ovation? He did nothing but sit there and watch.

[SHRINA17]

Well BroadwayKidNamedJosh...it was right after 9/11 and when he came down the aisle to get to his seat and people realized it was Rudy they gave clapped and gave him a standing ovation because they felt he "brought the city/country together a bit after 9/11...although some might not agree the people that evening felt just like what Ms. Streep is saying....that's why...he didn't get up and dance and sing...yes he sat and watched the show but out of respect for him they gave clapped and stood.....
