The title of this post is the iconic line in the Meryl Streep movie, A Cry in The Dark, about the Chamberlains, the Australian couple accused and convicted of killing their infant before an inquest determined it was a dingo attack. The line was made even more famous by Seinfeld, when the character Elaine blurts the quote out of nowhere at a boring party.
A day after Streep’s idiotic speech at the Golden Globes, Michael Chamberlain, the father of the young victim Azaria, dies.
ht/ the big owe
streep never did anything for me.
I can’t remember ever seeing one of her movies.
Marilyn who?
Oh that Meryl Streep is a phony baloney.
Like all successful actresses, Streep is a shrewd self-promoter.
She’s entering that stage of life where the parts offered are no longer the heroine, but the heroine’s mother.
And then, the grandmother.
She’s almost old enough to replace Judi Densch in the next Best Marigold Hotel sequel.
Lefty politics gives her a shot at prolonging her sunset and postponing the inevitable.
Old hag Streep’s globes sure are not golden!
You mean obongo’s Uncle Dingo, right?
Western character actor Jack Elam described the “4 Stages Of Every Actor’s Career”:
1. “Who’s Jack Elam?”
2. “Get me Jack Elam!”
3. “Get me a YOUNG Jack Elam!”
4. “Who’s Jack Elam?”
Meryl Streep, in my opinion, is a terrific actress! She would do better to keep to a script and not reveal her personal opinions on a stage. I couldn’t care less what these holier-than-thou celebrities think about other things especially politics!
Loved Jack Elam, particularly at the beginning of Once Upon a Time in the West.
His bad eye was the result of a Boy Scout accident.
Actors, musicians and sports figures would do the world a great service by doing what they are famous for and keeping their mouths shut concerning politics. The liberal ones anyway!
There’s a lot of truth in the old saying, “Better the world thinks you’re an asshole than to open your mouth and remove any doubts”.
I’m missing something here thus far that will make me feel stupid later for not getting the joke. I’m not getting the connection between topic title Meryl Streep and Julia Louis-Dreyfus in the picture.
Steeps Australian accent was woeful in that movie, she just sounded like a retard.
Yep I knew it , I feel stupid already. Slow down. Read carefully. Pause before doing anything else.
Agree Jack Elam played some great.characters over the years. Great JE quote.
Is it polite to brag about not knowing who any of these Hollywood ass holes are?
Jack Elam was also great as the cantankerous coot in that classic Twilight Zone episode about the Martian disguised among the bus passsngers in the snowed-in diner.
BTW, Meryl Streep must have ordered her stylist to make her hair an exact copy of recount scammer Jill Stein’s.
They look like identical twins.
That’s a creepy message.
She was in
“The Devil Wears Spandex and Hangs Out in a Tranny Bar”,
right?!
Jack Elam was a bookkeeper and accountant before he became a bad guy in the movies. That would have been a true waste of a bad eye. Loved him in “Kiss Me Deadly” and those two James Garner comedy westerns.
A baby ate my dingo! Becomes a Trump ate my most qualified candidate to ever run for President! As they command you at Denny’s “ENJOY!”
I thought actors and actresses were supposed to be great if they could portray someone to a degree that is convincing.
Ms. Streep acts like herself.
Not good enough.
It’s all good, everything I see from these people including anti-Trump videos just tells me who not to patronize.
Relentless hysteria, the new normal.
“Support Your Local Gunfighter”
“Support Your Local Sheriff”
Awesome Movies….Jack was also good in the Cannonball Run Movie
“What kind of Dr. are You…..Proctologist” (rubs finger under their noses)
Yeah, yeah yeah you’re rich and famous.
Big deal.
This is America. Your actress opinion holds water only with Liberals who would worship a Pine Cone if it trended.
The left spent a billion dollars and rigged a primary. They lost.
Then its the Russians, the FBI, the electoral college, the FBI again, Racist Hillbillies, Alien Mind Worms etc.
They have tried everything but acting like adults.
You have nothing I need.
Go emote elsewhere.

You all don’t get it. Meryl was ACTING like a bitch. In real life she’s a rabid tea-party conservative. Man, she sure can act.
I think I have seen maybe four Streep movies. The first was “Kramer vs. Kramer,” in which I found her character to be totally unbelievable. Two of them, “The Seduction of Joe Tynan” and “Out of Africa,” she had such phoney accents as to make me wonder how anybody could consider her to be a decent, much less good, actress. The fourth one was where she was dead and I think Goldie Hawn was in it — that just happened to be on TV and I had nothing better to do — so I don’t even remember the name.
Can’t name a single movie that scrunt was in.
Shucky darns.
Meryl who?
