Title: Terrific all around
Product review: One expects Meryl Streep to be fantastic, and she did win the Academy Award for her portrayal of Margaret Thatcher in "Iron Lady" so I certainly expected that her performance would be great. But "fantastic" and "great" only begin to describe this performance in which the actress almost at times disappears, leaving only Margaret Thatcher on the screen, and an aged and infirm Thatcher at that. Streep is so incredible, just a perfect performance in a very interesting and enjoyable movie.Thumbs up to the makeup artists as well, whose work here is invisible. If you had never seen Meryl Streep before, you'd assume she looks just as she does in this movie.The cast all around is terrific, the script is tight and interesting. The drama is leavened at times with humor and spirit, at times piercing in its sadness, but always, always interesting.Recommendation: Absolutely, two thumbs way up.
