About this movie

OSCAR®-winning actress Meryl Streep (IT'S COMPLICATED, DOUBT, MAMMA MIA!) stars as Margaret Thatcher in this surprising and intimate portrait of the first and only female Prime Minster of the United Kingdom. Smashing through the barriers of gender and class, Thatcher is arguably one of the 20th century's most influential women. THE IRON LADY weaves the intricacies of Thatcher's personal life with her policy decisions, focusing on the price that she paid for power.

HELLO COMMONEALTH AND OTHERS: SEEMS WHEN I WAS IN COLLEGE THEN, THE FIRST FEMALE PRIME MINISTER OF GREAT BRITAIN WAS FROM THE SAME CLOTH AS THE DARING AND ENGLISH RENAISSANCE QUEEN ELIZABETH I. IN THAT SAME LINE THIS PRIME MINISTER USED THE BRITISH ARMADA 'OH BRITANNIA, BRITANNIA RULES THE SEAS...' TO MAINTAIN ITS EQUILIBRIUM JUST LIKE JFK AT KRUSCHEV'S ARM-WRESTLE WITH CUBA'S CASTRO POLICY AS A SOVIET PROXY. BOTH INCIDENTS ARE NOTEWORTHY IN HISTORY FOR THESE GRAND INFLUENTIAL PILLARS OF WEST

Lamento mucho no compartir las opiniones de la gran mayoria que ha catalogado a esta como algo mediocre. Lamentable que que se haya clsificado en un solo tema. Como Maestro de Lengua y Literatura e Historia la pelicula toca temas muy profundos y, hasta sirve de pitonicismo. Les recomiendo que la vean mas de una vez y entren en una verdadera exegesis de la misma. Yo la acabo de ver por presentacion de Showtime. Procedere a verla dos veces adicionales.

It gave me chills down my back. It is amazing how hard the woman had to work to reach her dreams. The movie tells the story is such a way that you can tell how she felt throughout her journey. Please do yourself a favor and watch this movie
