Meryl Streep's first and most recent Oscar win for Best Actress Kramer vs Kramer & The Iron Lady |
Actually, we didn't think highly of any of the Oscar nominations this year except for one. I have provided a list down below courtesy of BBC. After reviewing the winners, it looks like the 3D adventure drama, Hugo, took home the most awards last night, but the night belonged to one special lady, an Iron Lady.
Meryl Streep won her third most-deserved Oscar for her portrayal of the former Primer Minister of England, Margaret Thatcher in The Iron Lady. A big shout-out for her, she is one of my favorite actresses, alongside Glenn Close and Sally Field.
