The Iron Lady

On Friday, March 9, 2012, I went to see the movie The Iron Lady.  This movie is based on the life of Margaret Thatcher, Britain's longest serving Prime Minister and Britain's first female Prime Minister.

I don't know much about the reign of Thatcher.  So, seeing the movie was interesting, but I don't know if it was very accurate.  I thought the make-up was very well done.  This movie featured many big stars, but mostly Meryl Streep, whom I believe did a very good job of playing the character.

I think I would have enjoyed the movie more, or I would have been able to realize how good of a performance (or not) Streep had if I had known more about Margaret Thatcher.
