Dear Meryl Streep,

I’ve never written “fan mail” before… but I felt inclined to write you.

I remember the first time I saw one of your films. I cannot remember the title, but your character was involved in some legal dispute with a huge corporation. The company poisoned some town, and the protagonist, who you played, brought the corporate conglomerate to its knees. I was ecstatic when you won the Academy Award for Best Actress.

In this era of mainstream media’s perpetual selling of sex, it’s refreshing to see an actress who remains so elegant. Not many could play a classy prostitute, but you pulled it off flawlessly. Pretty Woman is a timeless movie, and your character will live on forever.

And in Closer… so seductive and mysterious. I don’t know how you do it. Well, actually, I guess that’s why you are famous. That and your perfect smile.

If I had two wishes, I would first create world peace, and then meet you.

Thank you for being such a talented actress.

I’m sure you get hundreds of letters every day, but I would be eternally grateful if you could send me a reply.

Jeremy David
