Meryl Streep More Flexible Than We'll Ever Be [Old Dogs, Old Tricks]

Meryl Streep More Flexible Than We'll Ever Be [Old Dogs, Old Tricks]
There's no two ways about it, Meryl Streep is a national treasure. Even if she appears in forgettable dramas set on beaches, Lindsay Lohan vehicles, and yes, even in the same disastrous film as Hubbard Knight Tom Cruise, we forgive and forget. There are too few cheeky cougars who don’t give a about best-dressed lists or husbands in Hollywood these days. So when we caught sight of this image, showing the 58-year old Oscar winner performing the elusive mid-air spread-eagle on the set of Mamma Mia, we even forgave the fact that she’s appearing in Mamma Mia and fell even more in love.

Even at our pre-teen peak point of flexibility, we couldn't pull this off a move like this on our trampoline. And somehow, we imagine that even after hitting the gym hard for the next few months, we can't see ourselves be able to do this move today, let alone at age 58. Meryl, you have always been, and will always remain, our hero.
