It's all played pretty earnestly".<ref>{{cite web|url= https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2020/12/review-meryl-streep-takes-a-dream-of-a-cruise-in-let-them-all-talk|title= Meryl Streep Takes a Dream of a Cruise in Let Them All Talk|website= [[Vanity Fair (magazine)|Vanity Fair]]|date= December 9, 2020|accessdate= August 8, 2023}}</ref>
