Report: Thatcher Enthusiasts Slam Iron Lady After Early Glimpse
Grains of salt in the ready! The Daily Mail reviews it swept up with audiences following an earlier screening from the Margaret Thatcher biopic The Iron Lady, and fans from the former British pm were most displeased, I only say. Supported by a listing of 5 things the film apparently will get wrong (e.g. Thatcher’s husband Denis indeed once used a pink turban in India, but no no no he never taunted that old lady with party favors while doing this, jeez), the Mail account cites not-so-pullquotable responses like “insulting” and “I didn’t come here to determine a movie about gran going mad.” The film’s alleged depiction of Thatcher hallucinating struck Telegraph writer Mandrake as especially distasteful, compelling him to create that current pm David Cameron would “come to regret” permitting star Meryl Streep to sit down inside a special Very important personel section while watching and researching House of Commons proceedings. Yes! Please David Cameron, put aside everything phone-hacking and rioting nonsense and regret not… protecting Margaret Thatcher’s legacy via a more stringent standard for Parliamentary Very important personel seating? Anyway, this happened. Apparently. The Iron Lady opens Stateside on 12 ,. 16. · Buddies revulsion at film that shows Lady Thatcher as ‘granny going mad’ [Daily Mail via LAT]
