The story concerns power and the price that is paid for power, and is a surprising and insightful portrait of an extraordinary and complex woman. Phyllida Lloyd, the director of Mamma Mia! brings us another side of Meryl Streep in the mesmerising The Iron Lady. With an exceptional UK cast, this film centres around the political and family life of Margaret Thatcher from her early years, through the power struggles of parliament to her current living situation dealing with dementia. This film doesn’t hold back and shows the good and bad through those years with an absolutely captivating performance by Meryl Streep who’s utterly convincing in the role and is a firm favourite to take home some silverware during the awards season!!!!
