Meryl Streep was nominated for her 20th Academy Award, proving yet again why she’s considered one of the greatest actors of all time. Streep, who won the Cecil B. DeMille Award at this year’s Golden Globe Awards, broke her own record with Tuesday’s nomination ― Actress in a Leading Role ― for the film “Florence Foster Jenkins.”
