Streep established herself as a leading Hollywood actress in the 1980s. [9] [10] She played dual roles in the period drama The French Lieutenant's Woman (1981), [10] and starred as a Polish Holocaust survivor in Sophie's Choice (1982). [11] She was awarded the Best Actress Oscar for the latter. [8] Streep portrayed the real-life character of Karen Silkwood in Mike Nichols' drama Silkwood (1983), [12] before starring in her most financially successful release of the decade, the romantic drama Out of Africa (1985), in which she played the Danish writer Karen Blixen. [13] [14] With intermittent successes, Streep's career went through a period of relative decline post-1985, with several commentators criticizing her inclination towards melodramatic roles, [15] despite her attempt at playing against-type in the comedies She-Devil (1989) and Death Becomes Her (1992). [16]

In 1995, Streep starred opposite Clint Eastwood as an unhappily married woman in The Bridges of Madison County , her biggest critical and commercial success of the decade. [14] [17] Although her dramas of the late 1990s received a mixed reception overall, [18] [19] she was praised for her role as a cancer patient in One True Thing (1998). [20] She had acclaimed roles in the 2002 films Adaptation. and The Hours , and won a second Emmy Award for the television miniseries Angels in America a year later. [21] [22] Greater success returned to Streep in 2006, with an Academy Award-nominated role as a ruthless fashion magazine editor in the comedy-drama The Devil Wears Prada . [23] This led to starring roles in several high-profile films, including the US$609 million-grossing romantic comedy Mamma Mia! (2008), her highest-grossing release, and the comedy-drama Julie & Julia (2009), in which she played Julia Child. [24] [25] These roles re-established Streep's stardom. [26] Her portrayal of Margaret Thatcher in the biopic The Iron Lady (2011) earned her another Academy Award for Best Actress. [27] Further Oscar nominations came for her starring roles in August: Osage County (2013), Into the Woods (2014), Florence Foster Jenkins (2016), and The Post (2017), setting a record for more nominations than any actor or actress in history.
