Meryl didn’t win – nor did she attend – at tonight’s British Academy Awards. The best actress BAFTA went to Carey Mulligan for “An Education”. This has been Meryl’s 13th nomination. She won the BAFTA once in 1982 for “The French Lieutenant’s Woman”. A segment of the Best Actress category has been added to the video archive with many thanks to Nora.

In the first announcement from The Irish Film and Television Awards, Meryl Streep has won this year’s Pantene Best International Actress Award for her performance in the romantic comedy ‘It’s Complicated’. Streep, who won the same award last year for her role in ‘Mamma Mia!’, faced competition from fellow nominees Penelope Cruz (‘Broken Embraces’), Marion Cotillard (‘Nine’) and Anna Kendrick (‘Up in the Air’). The award is the only People’s Choice category at the IFTAs, and the Irish public voted in their thousands for Streep. The awards ceremony will be held at The Burlington Hotel, Dublin on Saturday, February 20th and will be broadcast live on RTE One that evening.

Meryl may have received 16 Oscar nominations throughout her career, but today marked the second time only that she has attended the Academy Awards Luncheon since 1980 in celebration of her nomination. Pictures from the event can be found in the Image Library.

Added high quality screencaps from the Screen Actors Guild Awards to the Image Library. Enjoy!

I am proud and grateful to stand with these women who have given such a range of beautiful, indelible performances this year!! – Meryl Streep
