Beginning tomorrow (but available for pre-order right now) you can see Meryl Streep in her Academy Award winning performance as Margaret Thatcher in The Iron Lady, right on your Fire, as an Amazon Instant Video. From IMDB:
An elderly Margaret Thatcher talks to the imagined presence of her recently deceased husband as she struggles to come to terms with his death while scenes from her past life, from girlhood to British prime minister, intervene.
Amazon Vine Voice, Top 50 Reviewer and Hall of Fame Reviewer E. Bukowsky says:
Meryl Streep is exceptional as Margaret Thatcher. Her facial expressions, carriage, and voice perfectly convey Thatcher’s ambition, single-mindedness, and determination. Streep also reveals her subject’s flaws: Thatcher could be petty, unfeeling, and domineering. The most poignant and memorable scenes depict Mrs. Thatcher more than two decades after she retired as frightened, confused, lonely, and preoccupied with bygone events. Jim Broadbent is superb as Denis, who applauded his wife’s triumphs but resented her bossiness and obstinacy. There are wonderfully humorous moments and some scenes that may reduce the audience to tears. The movie is not perfect. At times the script and the score are heavy-handed and manipulative. However, most viewers will understand if not empathize with the grocer’s daughter who attended Oxford and went on to govern Great Britain for over a decade. Right or wrong, she was destined to make history.
The Iron Lady is rated PG-13, and the Amazon Instant Video is now available for purchase for $14.99. The film is also available in DVD format at the same price, and in a Blu-Ray combo pack that includes the film in Blu-Ray, DVD and digital formats for $19.99.
