I don’t care for Meryl Streep’s personal politics, but she is a brilliant actress and I don’t see any issue at all with her playing the Iron Lady. She very much looks the role and it really is something that Streep plays her versus a two bit actor.
‘You want people who are willing to find a solution. I admire the fact that she was a “love-me-or-hate-me” kind of leader who said: “This is what I stand for.” It’s a hard thing to do and no one’s doing that now.’
Sarah Palin did that. Sarah is Sarah and she knows exactly what she stands for.
I wonder if Meryl respects her for it?
Streep is saying what she’s been told to say. I think some studios have figured out that movies can be “Baldwined”.
Meryl is an ugly woman and a pathetic actress.
One of the things I’ve always respected about Streep was the way she took care of her fiancee John Cazale (probably best remembered as Fredo from The Godfather films) when he was dying from bone cancer. Of course, that’s the decent thing to do no matter who you are. But it’s not the sort of devotion one has come to expect from a lot of Hollywood types.
Streep understands that Conservatives buy movie tickets, too.
If Oliver Stone was not involved, it has a chance to be both good and factual.
My wife and I will go see this. She really wants to so I will tag along. I will give you a run down before you all have to suffer if it is bad.
