Alec Baldwin is looking back at his time working with an acting legend.

The 60-year-old actor posted a sweet shot of him and Meryl Streep, 69, from the 2009 movie It’s Complicated on Instagram Tuesday. The movie featured the two as a divorced couple who start having an affair when they reconnect years later.

“From the archives: I made a movie with this woman once. It was a dream come true,” Baldwin wrote alongside a picture of him and Streep in a slow dancing pose.

It’s Complicated was written and directed by romantic comedy legend Nancy Meyers, and also starred Steve Martin, John Krasinski, Lake Bell and Rita Wilson.

The movie came after Tina Fey cast him in 30 Rock three years earlier. The actor has appeared in dozens of movies and TV shows since and has recently been in the eye of the pop culture storm with his impersonation of President Donald Trump on Saturday Night Live.

For Streep, the movie premiered the same year as Julie & Julia and was her last major screen credit before earning her latest Oscar for The Iron Lady in 2012, breaking an almost 30-year drought since her last one in 1983. She’s still way ahead of the pack with the amount of nominations she’s received coming in at 21 throughout her long career.
