A shockingly true and revealing portrayal. ‘The Iron Lady’ is both historically —as within the particularly profound characterization of the public and private personality of Margaret Thatcher; an interesting and often confronting movie. Meryl Streep once again reveals her greatness as a unique actress in every detail of Thatcher like the world has known her and... what we didn’t see earlier. The meme, the evolving sound of her voice, the closeup resemblance up to ‘undressing’ the soul of the character; a masterly performance of one of our planet’s greatest actresses. As a historical document this motion picture illustrates greatly an important period in British (and international) recent 20th century’s history.
