Are you Team Ted or Team Joanna? (For the record, we're team Margaret.) This week, we discuss the first role to win Meryl Streep an Oscar, as a complicated ex-wife and temporary ex-mother seeking to reclaim her son from her ex-husband (Dustin Hoffman). We dive deep into our own personal Streep histories and her finest moments in this movie, as well as the behind the scenes Method acting mishigas Hoffman pulled with her, queen out on co-star Jane Alexander's also-nominated performance. Plus: we give a moment of appreciation to JoBeth Williams both in this and "Poltergeist," try to remember who Barbara Barrie played in "Company," tangent onto Toni Collette in "Hereditary," find some way to talk about Diane Keaton again, lose our marbles over Candice Bergen in "Starting Over," and recall fondly when Cameron Diaz was (finally!) "a serious actress."
