I have full respect for Iron Lady; but I always feel that there is something missing in this film. Although it is indeed difficult to summarize the life of such a legendary character in a short film, I still feel that the film is not comprehensive and sufficient. It only shows a few aspects of this great and strong woman, and it is more lifelike.
In terms of plot arrangement, the use of interludes makes the time a bit messy. Although it may be understandable after careful scrutiny, it is too tiring to watch. After all, it is not a suspense film, so it is better to be clear.
Meryl Streep's acting skills have nothing to say, whether it is the strong and arrogant Iron Lady, or the old woman in the desolate evening scene, they all grasp it very accurately. In fact, I'm quite curious about how she practiced her London accent?
Especially commendable is the magic makeup. This is also a must for a good biographical film.
PS: Love Harry Lloyd.
Overall, I give more than 3 stars and less than 4 stars.
