Meryl Streep’s sweet homecoming to Penelope Cruz for the recording of “The Princess of Asturias”

---

Today, October 20, 2023, the Princesa de Asturias Awards took place. The ceremony, which is celebrated every year during these years, honors relevant figures in various fields such as art, literature, scientific and technological research, international cooperation, harmony or deportations.

One of the undisputed heroes of this publication is Meryl Streep, who over the past few days has revolutionized the capital of Asturias. At the time of receiving the award, the actress was delighted with the assistants and spectators who followed the event on television with their own words and gratitude.

“It’s hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that I’m here, part of me suspects that just as I’ve played extraordinary people all my life, I’ll now return to one of them,“, he began to speak.

“What do actors actually do?“He wondered, focusing on the discussion to praise his own art, which he taught about life.”The intangible gift of an actor’s metamorphosis. This is what makes it difficult to quantify or think about. What does this mean for us? “What’s the value?”

Next, the actress reflected on the impact this role had on her. The way she evolved into characters throughout her life led her to realize realities that profoundly shaped her own experiences. He refers to Sophie’s Decision, Dame Hierro, and even, in a somewhat comical tone, to his article in El Diablo Vista de Prada.

“What am I? A good middle-class girl from New Jersey so you can find me in the shoes of the First Minister of the United Kingdom, or a Pole Holocaust survivor, or an arbiter of good taste in the world. fashion…”

“The great Spanish artist Pablo Picasso said: “Imitating others is necessary, imitating others is pathetic.”” He continued by saying, “Another great Spanish artist, Penelope Cruz, said: ‘You cannot live your life looking at yourself from another person’s point of view.’

Again: “I’m not a good imitator of Penelope…”

In the final part of his speech, Streep acknowledged and called for peace, and began to reflect on the war. To confirm, he once again depicted the figure of Lorca and one of his modern works (as well as the last one he painted): “The House of Bernarda Alba.”

“Lorca wrote the work two months before his own asesinato, in anticipation of the next asesinato. What can you see from such a height, that you can look from such a distance at the sights that are so amusing with life… This is extraordinary,

“Relataba.

“This is wisdom, it will not save them, but it will be a warning for the future, it is a gift for us. Empathy can be a radical form of aggression, and diplomacy in this world is even more hostile and unstable.“

Finally, tapping into the silence and power of listening, the actress shared, “I hope we can do this. Our other rule, which is taught to all actors: the main thing is to study. Thank you for teaching me.“
