Year: 1982
Director: Alan J. Pakula
Reflections: Sophie's Choice made me realize why Meryl Streep is considered one of the greatest actresses of all time. In her Academy Award winning performance as Sophie, a post-WW2 Polish immigrant with a troubled past, Streep will genuinely touch your heart. When a young southern writer named Stingo (Peter MacNicol) moves to Brooklyn and befriends Sophie, along with her volatile lover, Nathan (Kevin Klein), he becomes overwhelmed by how deep the rabbit hole goes. Powerful story. Chilling conclusion.
