The Iron Lady (2011)
9/10
Meryl Streep Queen of the Movies
13 April 2012
Meryl Streep Queen of the Movies gives a brilliant and Oscar deserving performance as Margaret Thatcher. The movie works because of Streep's brilliant performance and brings Maggie Thatcher to life. Thatcher's contribution to modern day England is of course known, how Thatcher took a moribund country and shook it up.. Thatcher's decision to sink the Belgrano is not one I politically support but one cannot be amazed on how Thatcher made that decision. The movie also captures Thatcher's ability to both charm and disarm Men of power. That Thatcher liked the company of Men, active decision making Men is apparent.

Meryl Streep is Queen of the Movies with a great career where Streep has played all sorts of women. Dazzling in her ability, Meryl Streep has never played a part that she can be ashamed of. Trulythe Queen of the Movies and a box office champ in her mid 60's. Streep ranks with Greta Garbo, Katharine Hepburn, and Barbara Stanwyck as one of the greatest actresses in movie history.

Is there nothing Meryl Streep can do. While others have been termed Movie Queens, Streep is not only a Movie Queen but Queen of the Movies!
