Full of character arcs!

"Iron Lady" tells the political career of Margaret Hilda Thatcher, the 49th Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and the first female Prime Minister! This is a standard character arc above everything else. Her strength, her paranoia, and her loneliness are presented in an interlude way that is real enough for your eyes! Meryl Streep's superb acting takes this movie up a notch completely! 7 points! ps: Compared with the "Darkest Hour" of the same type, although the protagonist's performance is not so prominent, the production of the drama is better, and the overall is equal!

The Iron Lady quotes

  • Margaret Thatcher: Sink it!

  • Young Denis Thatcher: Margaret, will you marry me?

    [a pause, Margaret stares at him]

    Young Denis Thatcher: Well?

    Young Margaret Thatcher: [Margaret is still staring, Denis kisses her hand] Yes. Yes!

    Young Denis Thatcher: [Margaret starts to cry from happiness, Denis leans in for a kiss, but she suddenly pulls back] What?

    Young Margaret Thatcher: I love you so much but, I will never be one of those women, Denis. Who stays silent and pretty on the arm of her husband. Or remote and alone in the kitchen - doing the washing up, for that matter.

    Young Denis Thatcher: [interrupts] I'm going to help with that...

    Young Margaret Thatcher: No. One's life must matter, Dennis. Beyond all the cooking and the cleaning and the children. One's life must mean more than that. I cannot die washing up a teacup! I mean it, Denis. Say you understand.

    Young Denis Thatcher: That's why I want to marry you, my dear.
