on Kramer vs Kramer with Dustin Hoffman
Since it's Meryl Streep's 68th birthday today, let's gawk at some behind the scenes photos. It's a good way to pay tribute since the Grand Dame of American Cinema has been working pretty much non-stop (except during the 90s when she spent a lot of time with her little children) since the world first fell for her.
Lots more after the jump including Death Becomes Her, Plenty, It's Complicated, Out of Africa, and more...
