Months of Meryl: Defending Your Life (1991)

John and Matthew are watching every single live-action film starring Meryl Streep.
#18 —Julia, a quality human being awaiting her judgment in the afterlife.
JOHN: Defending Your Life, Albert Brooks’ 1991 purgatory comedy, actually contains two movies. One involves Brooks’ Daniel Miller dying in a car accident, arriving in the leisurely Judgment City, and having his entire life reviewed in a trial that will determine whether he is reincarnated as a different person or sent to a higher dimension. The other, shorter film lodged inside Brooks’ painfully vain lark is about the absolute perfection of Meryl Streep. Guess which one is more enjoyable...
