During a recent awards show outing, Hollywood actor Meryl Streep heaped praises on filmmaker Greta Gerwig\u2019s last year juggernaut, \u2018Barbie\u2019<\/em>, starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, as she expressed her gratitude towards the live-action musical, for saving the Hollywood cinema and eventually the jobs of thousands of people, including hers.<\/p>\n

Streep, who collaborated with Gerwig on her last Oscar-nominated title, \u2018Little Women\u2019<\/em>, thanked her for the film when she took the stage after Billie Eilish and Finneas\u2019 win for \u2018What Was I Made For?\u2019<\/em> from \u2018Barbie\u2019<\/em>, and said, \u201cI just want to say to Billie and Finneas that you have delivered the Barbie love bomb.\u201d<\/p>\n

She continued, \u201cYou\u2019ve saved the movies last summer and all of our jobs. You\u2019ve delivered joy to countless generations and genders of people. You should surf that wave, kids, until you\u2019re old and deserve to be jaded like me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pertinent to note here that eminent filmmaker Steven Spielberg had similar words of praise for Tom Cruise\u2019s \u2018Top Gun: Maverick\u2019<\/em> last year, when he said, \u201cYou saved Hollywood\u2019s a** and you might have saved theatrical distribution. Seriously, Top Gun: Maverick<\/em> might have saved the entire theatrical industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the female empowerment blockbuster also bagged the first-ever Cinematic and Box Office Achievement award at the Golden Globes, the first of the awards season in Hollywood, on Sunday.<\/p>\n
