The OTHER Lady of Iron

By "Other" Iron Lady, I mean not the Statue of Liberty!

Settling into this bio pic, I knew next to nothing about Margaret Thatcher. Thank God for Wikipedia at my fingertips during the first bit of the film! Honestly desired to see this film more-so for the sake that Meryl Streep finally pinned Best Actress for her role. She did not disappoint.

I'm not British, nor was I "up" on current affairs while Thatcher was active, so I have an unbiased point-of-view of this film. She comes off as strong but delicate, eager while overwhelming, brilliant but stubborn. The film itself is very interesting and I have to say "kudos" to the reflective nature of the film. I enjoyed it very much: 4/5 Stars.
