Academy Awards nominee: Meryl Streep, Best Actress!

Meryl Streep now has a record breaking number of Oscar nominations with her nod for THE IRON LADY, which has already copped her this year’s Best Actress Golden Globe, a surprising and intimate portrait of Margaret Thatcher, the first and only female Prime Minister of The United Kingdom. One of the 20th century’s most famous and influential women, Thatcher came from nowhere to smash through barriers of gender and class and be heard in a male dominated world—though her politics were certainly problematic to many people. “Meryl Streep gives a quite astonishing impersonation of Margaret Thatcher in this even-handed biopic about Britain’s longest-serving Prime Minister of the 20th Century.”—David Stratton. PG-13. 105 Min.
