Love the interaction between Meryl and Anna. But Meryl so funny the best, and always beautiful.

[@Syuhnebba1]

Lovely Anna and LEGENDARY Meryl. She is timeless

[@selwin7056]

8:49 The bit about meryl being good looking in 1975.

[@GeloYellow]

I love Anna's reaction to that haha

[@EmyNetto]

Meryl Streep always fucking great looking

[@mayanoone507]

I think Anna's nose is alike with Meryl's..the cool Anna Kendrick with the superb Meryl Streep..awesome!

[@beatrizribeiro2417]

Love Meryl's happiness in her reactions to what Anna was saying 😃😁

[@choudhuryup6084]

Anna Kendrick laughing at Meryl is the actual shit.

[@choudhuryup6084]

[@Mewminaa]

[@DarthVader20201]

Giorgia Castelli it says "Ciao Bella" like it

[@Matildaiisala]

Meryl is always perfect

[@LittleRe012]

But how to play... a bitch-a whitch? Got to love her

[@DianaDagoMc]

"How to play a bi... a witch ?" ...

[@CarrotTopCarrotTop]

I love how Anna is saying "goodbye bella" on her jumper. And yes I know ciao means hello as well, but I'm pretty sure she's lovingley flipping off Twilight

[@nesir8]

But doesn't Bella mean beautiful? Then it actually says "Goodbye/Hello Beautiful"

[@CarrotTopCarrotTop]

You are absolutely right, but Anna would have seen the irony in it and it is deff a wink at Twilight too.

[@EigramGn]

Carrot Top Or she could be referencing Pitch Perfect and the Barden Bellas :>

[@sophietpana]

Carrot Top I think she's just wearing a jumper haha

[@CarrotTopCarrotTop]

I still love the irony, lol

[@AmandaSilva-vz6sy]

Meryl and Anna

[@yadeni7334]

Meryl, oh Meryl!

[@xiaoluwang4849]

THAT slip was totally intentional, Meryl. But hahahahaha man was that funny.

[@JLF18]

I love Meryl Streep

[@nastiasydorchuk1519]

I hope Meryl will get it!!! ♥

[@karlaSinger]

lol... Meryl!

[@83candlestick]

This is a great clip. Thanks for sharing it. :)

[@TheatreofSymphony]

Play this video or any interview in 0.5 speed and they all sound tipsy. LOL

[@halo67994]

what happened at 10:10?

[@bisgurlll]

I never really noticed how much they all say ‘you know’ while explaining things....

[@miggio0]

watching this was like watching someone fart in slow motion and the butt cheeks ripple.

[@luc2275]

MERYL 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️

[@Verbsdescribeus]

I am absolutely fascinated with this director s work :)

[@sarahkenney2571]

What does anna mean by no I've done it

[@MisterBlueButterfly]

Sarah Karyne Kenney Look at Meryl's expression.

[@maryloupiron3068]

i still don’t get it x)

[@kristaleighy]

She said now I've done it, meaning Meryl felt old from Anna saying she was 10 when she first saw it.

[@superflyTv94]

The Bernadette piece? She means the one with Brandy? That would be cool.

[@musicman7416]

No, she means Bernadette peters. She played the witch in the original broadway version.
The Brandy piece you're talking about it Rogers and Hammersteins Cinderella starring whitney houston.
Bernadette peters also plays cinderella's step mother in The Rogers and Hammerstein piece.

[@CarrotTopCarrotTop]

I havent seen Meryl play it yet, but it's going to be a big task to beat Bernadette

[@sophiegoodman7683]

8:44 👌

[@mujunicarmel2066]

You Tube is the best

[@davidrossifernandez7551]
