Our new challenge will still involve a love of movies and those that make them. Those that lead us on a momentary escape from our daily life. The actors that make us laugh, cry, anger, and cheer. Each month we will focus on the work of one actor/actress. There will be three options each month. You may do each option or just one, your choice. In the past you were permitted to "find" a movie, now you many ONLY use the options given here!! They must be used EXACTLY AS IS!!!!

This month we will be focusing on the amazing work of Meryl Streep, my favorite actress. She has made me cry more times than I can count.

I love Meryl Streep, too. I think my favorite movie of hers is "The Devil Wears Prada," although I've liked just about all of them.
