Meryl Streep, Entertainment Weekly, March 2000
"Barbet... (sighing) ... has done beautiful work. But... I found it difficult. Liam and I had
a blast, but it was a stultifying experience. One of the things was that Barbet insisted that
words not ever overlap. Everybody had to finish what they were saying. Then the other person
would start. It sucked the life out of the scenes for us - he made an airless thing."
