Abigail Breslin learns acting from MerylStreep and Julia Roberts

Actress Abigail Breslin, who worked with experienced actresses Meryl Streep and Julia Roberts in "August: Osage County", says that she learnt a lot on the set.

The 17-year-old was really inspired by the senior actresses and added that she felt that she was in "acting school" while shooting with them, reports contactmusic.com.

"It was more (about) seeing how they were on set and watching them act, that was a big lesson. I felt like I was at an acting school for three months because I learnt so much just from watching them," Bang Showbiz quoted Breslin as saying.

Breslin rose to fame after her performance in "Little Miss Sunshine" when she was nine years old. She has also been seen in films like "No Reservations", "Nim's Island" and "Definitely, Maybe".
