- SOPHIE’S CHOICE (1982) Director: Alan J. Pakula. Writer: Pakula, based on the novel by William Styron. Starring Kevin Kline, Peter MacNichol. There’s little question that Alan J. Pakula’s Holocaust drama contains what might be the finest performance of Streep’s long career.

- 'Kramer vs. Kramer' (1979) Directed by Robert Benton. Standing as one of the most compelling and successful drama films of all time, Kramer vs. Kramer was a Best Picture winner and gave Meryl Streep one of her first prominent roles.
- 'Doubt' (2008) Directed by John Patrick Shanley. With a title as blunt as Doubt, it's pretty easy to work out what this film will build to, only for its ending to spell things out in painfully blunt detail in an awkward final scene...
- 'Death Becomes Her' (1992) Directed by Robert Zemeckis. A fantastical comedy that could also be definable as a very mild horror movie, Death Becomes Her is a pretty good time, and one of Meryl Streep's funniest movies.
- 'The Bridges of Madison County' (1995) Directed by Clint Eastwood. A Clint Eastwood-directed movie that certainly stands out from his more expected crime movies, thrillers, and Westerns, The Bridges of Madison County is an unashamedly emotional romance movie.
- The Iron Lady (2011) This movie earned Streep her third Oscar and her second for Best Actress. She hadn’t won an Oscar since 1986, when she won her Best Actress award for Sophie’s Choice, so this was a big moment for Streepers (the name her mega-fans call themselves).
- Ricki and the Flash (2015) This was one of Jonathan Demme’s last films before his death in 2017. Streep stars as Linda Brummel, now known as Ricki Rendazzo, a woman who left her family in Indianapolis to pursue her dream of rock and roll in Los Angeles.
- Falling in Love (1984) Most people probably don’t even know about this one, but it’s a charming little gem that slipped into the ’80s…and stayed there.
- Into the Woods (2014) When Streep landed the role of the Witch in the movie adaptation of Stephen Sondheim’s Into the Woods, she recalled being offered three witches the year she turned 40.
