Going All Out
In addition, Meryl Streep went all out in true Meryl Streep way. She went through significant bodily anguish since she was so determined to portray a rock star convincingly. One day, Streep contacted filmmaker Jonathan Demme and told him that her fingers were hurting from playing so hard.
In Danger
Streep, on the other hand, has been on the receiving end of method acting, and knowing the details makes it even less unexpected that she gave it up. Consider what happened in 1994 while she was filming The River Wild: she was on the verge of being killed. Yikes!
