The Oscars is still six months away but looking at the immensely charged up performances of actresses in the recently premiered movies, we are bound to think about Best Actress nominees for Academy Award 2014.

Meryl Streep role as 'Violet' in the August: Osage County is one such moving character which has forced us to think about her ingenious acting skills. From what we can see, Streep, known for her brilliant acting would be leading the pack in the Best Actress Academy Award 2014 category.

Streep lobbying for the Best Actress would begin in some time. According to The Gold Derby's Tom O'Neil, "We have to look at the Best Actress race this way: Who's strong enough to beat Cate Blanchett? It's Meryl. It's an honor just to be nominated."

Mery Streep already has three Oscars to her name and she has been nominated 17 times. She is not only the Oscars darling but has also got critical appreciation at Toronto and various other film festivals.

The industry pundits are betting on Cate Blanchett for the Best Actress Award this year. Blanchett has got rave reviews for her role of Blanche Dubois in the Woody Allen film "Blue Jasmine"

According to Stuart Husband of "The Telegraph: Cate Blanchett is in full-on tragicomic Oscar-bait mode as the title character, a Birkin bag-wielding Manhattan socialite whose world, and psyche, collapses along with the voodoo accounting of her fraudster financier husband.

On the other Mery Streep has been immensely praised for her role of sharp tounged and pill addicted matriach of a dysfunctional family.

According to Variety's Scott Foundas ,Meryl's performance in August: Osage County is 'electrifying,' and she's certain to get awards-season attention.

Streep gets nominated every time she appears in a film. It won't be wrong to say that her acting prowess is unsurpassable.
