Viola Davis, a Fences star, has spoken about the importance of line memorization during an episode of Amy Poehler's Good Hang podcast. She revealed that working with Meryl Streep on the 2008 film Doubt was an awkward moment when Streep forgot her line during a scene where they went through three attempts. Davis then confronted Streep, asking her why she kept forgetting the line. The pair became close friends and later introduced each other at the Golden Globes. The film was nominated for five Oscars, including Best Actress (Streep), Best Supporting Actor (Hoffman), and Best Adapted Screenplay for John Patrick Shanley.
