Some of you may remember Iain Johnstone’s book, “Streep“, which was released last Summer and is currently available in a revised edition. Back then I’ve made a deal that in exchange for mentioning the book, I would receive a copy of the interview that Mr. Johnstone and Meryl did in 1983 at the National Film Theater in London (as it was mentioned in the book). To make a long story short – as good things take time – I’m proud to finally share this rare treat with you!
Back in 1983, Meryl visited London to promote “Sophie’s Choice” and to talk about her films. The NFT produced a fourty minutes television broadcast in which she was interviewed by Mr. Johnstone. Enjoy watching the interview, and kindly do not copy these on other websites or sharing portals. Thanks! Screencaps have been also uploaded to the Image Library. My most sincere thanks go to David for helping me with this – thank you!

Thank you Frederik!!I really enjoyed this interview, I wonder how Mr. Johnstone has done a great interview and did a mediocre book…

You’re right. Any book will talk about Meryl perfectly if she isn’t the writer. Even if some authorized biography appears in the future. Anybody could be able to traduce her incredible way of thinking but herself. I think it’s a hard work for any human being to try to get in someone’s mind and transform into words, but in her case I believe that they couldn’t get not nearly from it.
