We FINALLY have something more to go on than a teaser trailer and it actually looks pretty good! Also, British critics that have seen the film were wowed by Streep’s performance. However, close friends of the former prime minister think it is an insult to her legacy. Even some critics were quick to write it off as a, “silly and suspect picture.” However one critic went on to say that it is a “performance of towering proportions that sets a new benchmark for acting.” That kind of praise is exactly what Meryl needs to win another Oscar and maybe even a little controversy wouldn’t hurt.
Here are trailers of “The Iron Lady” and “My Week With Marilyn” for your consideration.
