The Iron Lady

AMERICAN MERYL STREEP IS STARRING AS BRITISH PRIME MINISTER MARGARET THATCHER

It’s about time. British actors are often cast to play iconic American figures, but Americans are seldom cast to play important Brits. Meryl Streep (above left) has changed all that. With all the amazing English actresses out there, our own Meryl Streep landed the heroic role of British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. The movie is called “The Iron Lady” and it is described as “The story of a woman who smashed through barriers of gender and class to be heard in a male dominated world.” Judging by the photo, Meryl’s off to a good start.
