Meryl Streep has achieved yet another milestone this year.
As previously mentioned here, she nominated for a Golden Globe as lead actress in both the drama and the musical/comedy categories for her performances in "Doubt" and "Mamma Mia!" respectively.
That alone is impressive enough, but it turns out that with those two nominations, she now has 23 career nominations, the most of anyone in film history.
In doing so, she surpassed Jack Lemmon, who has a mere 22 nominations.
If anyone's keeping track, she's won six Golden Globes. So far.

Year-End Quotes from Hollywood
Gina Wilhelm Actress
As the year draws to a close, Inquirer.net compiles their favorite quotes from interviews with various movers and shakers in the film industry.
There are the standard questions of Brad and Angelina about their families. And the also standard question to Jennifer Aniston about her love life.
But there are also insightful questions and answers, including with Andrew Stanton of Pixar.
There's also a terrific quote from Woody Allen on the charm of filming a love scene.
However, the nicest quotes are from Meryl Streep on whether there's anything she can't do. She also talks about getting to record "The Winner Takes it All" for "Mamma Mia!"
The recording was made in the same studio on the same microphone where the original recording was made, and she talks about that.
Finally, there are some quotes from Benny Anderson and Bjorn Ulvaeus of Abba and the writers of Mamma Mia! about the chances of an Abba reunion and their other future plans.

Christmas Away From Home for Mamma Mia! Actress
Gina Wilhelm Actress
Jackie Clune, one of the stars of Mamma Mia! is spending the Christmas holiday away from home. The show is running in Kuala Lampur, but Clune is English.
Her costar, Miria Parvin, is Finnish. The rest of the cast is also not Malaysian.
Clune was thrilled, however, to discover that there were mince pies, Christmas pudding, and decorations to be found at the local mall.
She also organized a Christmas caroling session for cast and guests in a local hotel lobby.
The cast promised their children that Santa Claus would still be able to find them while they were away. I'm sure he found them, and in good spirits.
