Review of The Iron Lady (2011) by Santiago L — 06 Jun 2012
Lady Thatcher deserves so much better. You won't know it from the previews but the film is mostly about a doddering old lady talking to herself. How is that special about anyone who lives to such a respectable age? She has lead one of the most interesting lives of our time and this is what the filmmaker wishes to concentrate on? I kept thinking of Judy Dench in "Iris".
Can we just agree that this type of story has been done to death and I don't know maybe tell stories about interesting people while they are interesting and not dropping coffee cups and wetting themselves?
