Meryl Streep Labels Late Walt Disney "Bigot and Sexist"

Calling Walt Disney a "gender bigot and anti-Semite" Meryl Streep got on a tirade and ruined what would otherwise have been a festive evening honoring Emma Thompson for her role in the recent movie 'Saving Mr. Banks'.


To the attendees' shock and awe, Streep, a guest speaker, used the gala occasion as a soapbox, to rant on Disney, who died in 1966. Calling Disney "a gender bigot and member of an anti-Semitic lobbying organization", Streep launched into a diatribe on the iconic Disney, who is considered one of the founding fathers of Hollywood.


 A note, which Streep contends was written by Disney and is the basis for her criticisms, states the following, "Women do not do any creative work in connection with preparing the cartoons for the screen, as that task is performed entirely by young men."  Even if this note was written by Disney, Streep didn't elaborate on when or in what context it was written.  As far as the anti-Semitic lobbying organization, no name was forthcoming.


CMG's TAKE


Although Streep has had great screen success and is considered by many to be the best living actress her best performances are behind her.  Since Doubt, released in 2008, she seems to be playing the same character over and over only with different accents. Fact of the matter - her linguistics coach should receive an award.  Streep's outburst against Disney was planned and obviously ruined the moment for Emma Thompson and the other party attendees, demonstrating Streep's 'real life' persona which lacks taste and character.
