I just love Meryl Streep!
I think the word is
PHILOSOPHY
Argument:
* PHI = Greek letter F = F. Murray Abraham
* LOS = SOL backwards = sun seen from the dark side
* OPHY = someone who is always late; http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=ophy
And:
* PHILOS $\approx$ philia, Greek word for "Love"; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_words_for_love
* SOPHY = Meryl Streep's role in "Sophie's Choice" (Thanks to @KeyboardWielder)
I think the word is:
sophy / Sophie
Because:
loving = -sophy
Meryl Streep = Sophie in "Sophie's Choice"
I'm not sure of the rest, but some Googling suggests:-
sophy (wise man)
Sophie Harrison
Sophie Foster
I don't know if Googling was in the right spirit of answering this puzzle, so for now I'll leave it there and perhaps let someone else post a better answer...
I think the word is
Oscar
This part is incomplete:
Murray Abraham as Greek - refers to F Murray Abraham's role in Mighty Aphrodite
The sun seen from the dark side - Dark Side of the Sun, Brad Pitt's first leading role.
And someone who is always late - could refer to how Oscar bait movies are usually released very late in the year, so as to be fresh in Oscar voters' minds.
I just love Meryl Steep! - Holds records for the most nominations (including 3 wins)
