Movie Night: The Iron Lady
The event has passed.
The Iron Lady
Behind the polished speeches and steely resolve lies a woman who reshaped a nation. The Iron Lady is a riveting portrait of Margaret Thatcher — Britain’s first female Prime Minister — told through the lens of her triumphs, controversies, and the personal sacrifices that came with power.
This isn’t just political history; it’s an intimate exploration of ambition, resilience, and the cost of leadership. Meryl Streep delivers a transformative performance, embodying both the formidable public figure and the vulnerable private woman, in a story that moves between the corridors of power and the quiet moments of reflection.
It’s a film about legacy, memory, and the human side of politics — a reminder that even the strongest iron can carry cracks beneath the surface.
Why you’ll love it:
- Meryl Streep’s Oscar-winning performance that disappears into the role.
- A sweeping look at Britain’s political upheavals of the late 20th century.
- A deeply human story of strength, isolation, and the passage of time.
Think of it as a political epic wrapped in a personal elegy — history told through the eyes of its most unyielding heroine.
Rating: PG-13
