I was definitely very intimidated, but the instant Meryl Streep said 'Hi' to me, it all went away.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
What is it like when you see me in all these films and then you meet me? Were you intimidated?
So to get back to being intimidated, yes, you get intimidated when you're on the runway with Naomi Campbell, who is the best runway model in the world.
At a party recently I was introduced to Meryl Streep, and it took me a second to get my head around it. You know, that I'm meeting these people now. I'm doing it.
You can't have a conversation with someone who's intimidated by you all the time.
People say to me, 'Well, how do you direct Meryl Streep?' You're not wandering over to Meryl telling her how to act. She's an extraordinary talent and unbelievably hard working; she works harder than anyone I have ever worked with before.
I was pretty shy.
Are you intimidated by me? Because if you're intimidated by me, that's something you'll have to deal with.
Meryl Streep does things I would never have thought possible... Her presence on screen is outstanding.
I was quite shy.
I find it hard to imagine that anyone could be intimidated by me.
