Title: Great Movie and Effective Concept
Product review: The life of Margaret Thatcher, told in flashbacks to all periods of her life as the reflections of a woman in mental decline who is also recently widowed - a very eerie concept that I found spellbinding - I don't agree with those who say this story moves too slowly. This was a fascinating history lesson, especially for those who are not British and for whom her political stances in Great Britain were unknown. Meryl Streep is nothing short of perfect; a performance where the actor/actress disappears and the character emerges - we need more performances of this caliber, regardless of the subject matter. The supporting cast, especially Jim Broadbent, who weaves in and out of Thatcher/Streep's consciousness as the movie progresses, is excellent.
