– Eyebrows around Hollywood arched Tuesday when Streep was not nominated for SAG Awards for her supporting role in ADAPTATION or her lead role in THE HOURS ? it seems that an employee foul-up at Sony, the studio behind ADAPTATION, is at the root of the problem; she was placed in the Best Actress category when the ballots mailed last month, rather than Supporting Actress, and was thus up against herself for THE HOURS, which was produced by Paramount and Miramax. (January 30, 2003)

– No matter how many plaudits and Oscar nominations she gets, Streep says she is still far from confident before the cameras roll. (December 17, 2002)
|
– Accidentally scarred Goldie Hawn's cheek with a shovel during the fight scene in DEATH BECOMES HER (1992).
|
– Feeling so exhausted, she balked when director Curtis Hanson asked her to shoot one more scene for THE RIVER WILD (1994) before filming finished for the end of the day, however, she decided to attempt it. Swept off the raft, she was in real danger of drowning before she was rescued. Returning upriver, she told a pale and shaking Hanson that in the future, when I say I can't do something, I think we should believe me. Hanson hastily agreed.
|
– In the early scenes of POSTCARDS FROM THE EDGE (1990), where the character Suzanne Vail (played by 'Streep, Meryl') is acting on a movie set, one of the workers on the set is wearing a t-shirt with Evil Angels printed on the back. This was an alternate title for Streep's earlier film, A CRY IN THE DARK (1988).
|
– She and wanted to make a movie together and THELMA & LOUISE was one of the scripts they considered. Ultimately, they decided to star in DEATH BECOMES HER (1992) instead.
