Don’t you see? We are dying. I longed desperately to escape, to pack my bags and free, but I did not.

My God, I was settling in for a long winter’s nap. I’ve been nominated, like 789 times, but it hasn’t been since the Mesozoic Era that I’ve actually won. (On winning a Golden Globe for Adaptation (2002).

Miranda Priestly - The Devil Wears Prada Played by Meryl Streep

“Details of your incompetence do not interest me.”

In the last scene between Miranda and Andy, Andy asks Miranda if the lifestyle that Miranda led wasn’t what she wanted. Miranda responds, “Everyone wants this. Everyone wants to be us.” The original line was “Everyone wants to be me.” However, Meryl Streep did not like this line, finding it too self involved and dramatic. At the table reading of the script, Meryl organically changed the line to “Everyone wants to be us.” The line change stuck and was used in the film.

The idea of having Miranda appear without any make-up in the scene where she opens up to Andrea and worries about the effect of her divorce’s public disclosure on her daughters was Meryl Streep’s idea.
