Don’t ruin this for us, Team Thatcher!
While Meryl Streep may already be getting Oscar buzz for her portrayal of Margaret Thatcher in The Iron Lady (above), it appears that not everyone is pleased with this film.
Here’s what Thatcher’s former key PR adviser Lord Tim Bell had to say about it:
“I can’t be bothered to sensationalize this rubbish. I can’t see the point of this film.”
“Its only value is to make some money for Meryl Streep and whoever wrote it…It is a nonevent. It won’t make any difference to her place in history or the fact of what she did.”
More from another friend of Thatcher’s:
“She has not seen it. She never watches anything about herself, in any case.”
We’re also hearing that friends of Thatcher’s are referring to the film as an “insult.” Yikes!
Definitely a bummer to hear this, but we’re still looking forward to it…A LOT!
What do U think? Do U agree with Margaret Thatcher’s friends…or are U still pumped for this film???
