hideous premise for a movie, too. airbrushing thatcher's history to make her look like some hero. resentment for thatcher is still extremely widespread on the ground here - nobody is thanking her today for her neoliberalism. it didn't tackle any of her bad policies, disastrous tax-plans or her killing of equality/mobility. it's a disgusting idea for a movie.rdx-fx wrote:

WTF/10
A movie about a senile old lady, hallucinating conversations with her dead husband.
Oh.. And a few fragmented montages vaguely implying the senile old woman was, much earlier in life, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.
No historical context, no biography..
Just .. A wreck of a movie
First movie I've ever watched that made an English accent sound painful, shrill, and generally as if all the male actors just took a piping' hot tea kettle to the ass. Or, they're halfway done choking on a crumpet gone horribly awry.
