Meryl Plays A Washed-Out Rocker
It’s a quality cast — joining Miss Streep are Audra McDonald and Kevin Kline — so why does the trailer leave me underwhelmed? Watch and decide. It’s the preview for Sony’s Aug. 7 release of “Ricki and the Flash,” audiences watch Meryl Streep as a hard rock musician who returns home and gets a shot at redemption with her family. Streep stars as Ricki Rendazzo, a musician who strives to mend the mistakes she made with her family on her road to stardom. Mamie Gummer, Streep’s real-life daughter, plays her onscreen daughter.
