Movie:"Doubt" (2008)



What an excellent,excellent movie - I cannot rave enough about performances here,everybody is just first-rate but Meryl Streep is simply sensational - I honestly think she is the best movie actress of all times,with now huge body of work behind her and her skills cover every single human emotions - I saw her in drama,comedy,thriller,action - you name it,she is absolutely the best in everything she does.
I feel somehow that Streep is today taken for granted - people already know when she appears in movie she will be nothing short of greatest - just look who else is there on a screen and how much space in media is tributed to celebrities - nothing much about Streep since she seems to be focused on her work and don't need extra publicity.
Back to movie: it gives simply brilliant question about crime and punishment,what is actually the truth? We were never explicitly told about what is truth here (supposed affair between priest and his little pupil) and its all up to viewer to decide who is talking the truth here,is it a priest who wouldn't admit anything (althought he has previous record on this) or Streep who is fiery nun and suspects because "she know the people". Watch it with your friends and you will see that everybody comes to different conclusions - hence the title of the movie.
