Title: A Missed Opportunity
Product review: I was extremely disappointed with this movie. While Streep's performance was amazing I just shake my head at the approach of the filmmakers. A looming historical figure like Margaret Thatcher deserves a better film depicting her life.Like many other reviewers I grew weary of the hallucinations and would have preferred a simple telling of Lady Thatcher's fascinating life and politics. I never felt as if we got a chance to know anyone in the movie, including Thatcher herself. The only version we see consistently is the Thatcher suffering from dementia. I find that insulting.The movie glosses over most of her time in office as Prime Minister. Where was the Cold War? I believe the Falkland Islands got 5-7 minutes of screen time. Shocking!A sad telling of an incredible story.
