"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

"Is this really necessary?"
You should be asking yourself this every time you post, broadway guy.

Posted: 11/18/13 at 1:03pmOkay I am steering this back on topic to add that I not only think it's a very brave casting choice and if it comes to fruition Streep will be more than up to the challenge...she has prove time and time again she can do just about anything.

Posted: 11/18/13 at 1:09pmOh yeah, No doubt that Streep could do it, but does Susan Boyle's story really need to have a biopic? Anyway, I see Glen Close more than Streep.

Posted: 11/18/13 at 1:36pmMind you, the source for this article is Susan Boyle herself, whom I wouldn't describe as the most reliable, sane presence in the media. I somehow don't see Streep involved in this at all, but stranger things have happened.

Posted: 11/18/13 at 1:46pmI would pay hard earned cash to see THE JOYCE BULIFANT STORY come to fruition. How has her life story been overlooked after all these years?

Posted: 11/18/13 at 1:50pmI don't think I'd watch a biopic about Susan Boyle even if it were free, let alone pay to see one.
KFTC!!!!!

Oh, please. She's in line to play any female role of a certain age anytime anywhere -- the Inevitable Meryl Streep.
I'm sure Phyllida Lloyd will direct, from script from that DOWNTON ABBEY guy, and they can cover Streep up with just enough makeup to make her look like Meryl Streep with a lot of makeup on.

Posted: 11/18/13 at 2:42pmThe best part is that BWW picked it up, with an exclamation point and everything on the headline. Always keeping it professional BWW.
