family has issues and conflict personality, like all others families.

00. MS is so multi talented. Is there a role that she can't play? Beautiful movie. She acts like a little girl!

1) "Linda" (screen name "Ricki"- Streep stars as Ricki Rendazzo, a guitar heroine who made a world of mistakes as she followed her dreams of rock-and-roll stardom. Her makeup did not look like her!

Meryl Streep as you have never seen her before, a hard-rocking singer & guitarist, in Ricki and the Flash, from Oscar®-winning director Jonathan Demme (Best Director, The Silvence of the Lambs, 1991) and Academy Award®-winning screenwriter Diablo Cody (Best Original Screenplay, June, 2007). In an original and electrifying film loaded with live musical performances, Streep stars as Ricki Rendazzo, a guitar heroine who made a world of mistakes as she followed her dreams of rock-and-roll stardom. Returning home, Ricki gets a shot at redemption and a chance to make things right as she faces the music with her family.

Very impressed with Meryl Streep for doing her own singing and playing in this movie. She performed several songs - quite demanding for someone whose primary path is being an actor rather than being a musician! I was also glad to see Rick Springfield again - he was great in his GH days!

Wow!! Arguably the finest actress EVER to grace the silver screen with her presence doing a movie like this. Unbelievable that many of we fans of the GREAT Meryl Streep hadn't heard of this movie.

Truly beautiful movie, heartwarming [] ... About family, love, pain, endings and letting go, healing and forgiving, opening your heart up again, trusting and second chances... Sometimes you just to scream it out... and keeping your heart open in the end. Beautiful actors and beautiful acting [] .
