The Iron Lady (2011) Soundboard

The Iron Lady is a compelling biographical drama film released in 2011, directed by Phyllida Lloyd. The movie focuses on the life and career of Margaret Thatcher, the first female Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. It offers an intimate glimpse into her personal and political journey, showcasing the challenges she faced and the legacy she left behind. The Iron Lady is a thought-provoking exploration of power, determination, and the sacrifices made in the pursuit of greatness.

At the heart of this film is the exceptional performance by Meryl Streep in the role of Margaret Thatcher. Streep's portrayal is nothing short of remarkable, capturing the essence of Thatcher's character with uncanny precision. Her transformation into the iconic political figure is extraordinary, earning her numerous accolades, including an Academy Award for Best Actress. Streep effortlessly embodies Thatcher's mannerisms, voice, and determination, providing a deeply nuanced and immersive performance.

The supporting cast is equally commendable. Jim Broadbent delivers a strong performance as Denis Thatcher, Margaret's husband, providing a glimpse into their complex relationship. Alexandra Roach shines as a young Margaret Thatcher, showcasing the determination and ambition that propelled her towards political stardom. Other notable cast members include Harry Lloyd, Olivia Colman, and Anthony Head, who bring depth and authenticity to their respective roles.

The Iron Lady expertly weaves together flashbacks of Thatcher's political career intertwined with scenes of her life in retirement, grappling with her fading memory and the loss of her beloved husband. The film delves into the personal toll that Thatcher's unwavering commitment to her political agenda had on her life and relationships. Through a series of poignant and emotional moments, the audience is taken on a rollercoaster of emotions, empathizing with the triumphs and hardships that Thatcher faced throughout her journey.

The film also provides an intriguing look into the socio-political landscape of the time, highlighting the turbulent era of Thatcherism. It sheds light on the controversial policies implemented by her government, including the dismantling of trade unions, privatization of state-owned industries, and her firm stance during the Falklands War. The Iron Lady presents these issues with a balanced perspective, allowing viewers to form their own opinions on her leadership and its impact on the nation.

While some critics argue that the film tends to humanize a highly divisive political figure, others praise its ability to humanize Thatcher without shying away from her flaws and controversial decisions. The Iron Lady offers a complex and multi-dimensional portrayal of a woman who defied societal expectations and shattered glass ceilings, leaving an indelible mark on British history.

If you are looking to immerse yourself in the world of Margaret Thatcher, the sounds and emotions of The Iron Lady are available for you to experience firsthand.

A radio.
Ah. Cold supper.
Airey!
An attack inside the exclusion zone.
And contribute nothing to the community.
And I told Airey, I don't expect to win the leadership,
And I want them back.
And I'd get to be the happiest man in...
And if she wants us to take her seriously,
And loyalty to this country.
And opportunity to fulfill their own potential, especially the young
And restore to greatness this country that we love...
And spend in this incessant and blasé manner.
And the pearls.
And then there's Peter, James R, James T,
And to herald the start of a peaceful new age of East West cooperation.
And we've already got her vote.
And where there is despair, may we bring hope.
Are you unwell?
As if I've hardly had any lessons. Which is ridiculous, isn't it?
Beautiful day.
Beyond all the cooking and the cleaning and the children,
But we have to address this situation
Can the Right Honorable Lady deny
Definitely the grey.
Denis!
Denis?
Don't let those bastards see you humiliated.
Excuse me. Sorry.
Flora margarine, still the cheapest, at 38p.
For my party and my country.
For our children today will be the leaders of tomorrow
From the mainland United States?
Gentlemen, I need you to tell me today if that is possible.
Good night, dear.
Good, I think we can lose the handbag, Mrs. Thatcher. Yes?
Hear, hear.
How are you feeling? Oh, I don't feel comfortable.
I don't know why you do this to yourself every year.
I have done battle every single day of my life,
I haven't finished sorting.
I suppose we could always sell the car.
I will not go mad.
I'm going to run for Leader of the Party.
I've just been briefed by Admiral Fieldhouse. He told me, bluntly,
If I may say so, I think that's your trump card.
If you want to change the country, lead it.
Is quite what the Dartford constituents need.
Is this ship a threat?
It'll be fine. Come get your head down
It's a speech at conference, not the Magna Carta.
Just for a checkup.
Just like the man or woman in the street,
Many others are injured, some critically.
My father always said that.
Never be anything other than yourself.
No, no, no, no. The grey.
No, no! No! Airey!
No!
No.
Not just big business, but small businesses, like mine.
Not splendidly enough
Not... Don't... No.
Of our armed forces for their skill, bra very,
Oh, do please answer that.
Oh, he hasn't got his scarf on.
Oh, yes, to his core.
Oh!
Oh! (Chuckles)
Oh...
One syllable.
Our forces are moving forward to exploit their success.
Please!
Politically and economically insignificant, if you'll excuse me.
Proud to have left Britain in a much better state
Respectfully, Margaret, I disagree.
She does it in the end. Kills him.
Some of you want to make concessions
Starve themselves to death and never flinched!
Still, it must be a bit disorientating
Than when we took office.
That is critical for Britain's future.
That we must do nothing for the moment
The business is a bit rocky at the moment
The invitation has come from Downing Street
The last thing I wanted to do was fuss around my mother.
The loyalty of all of my colleagues cannot be counted upon.
The police are making no attempt... (continues indistinctly)
The time has come for others to consider their own response
The unions are not our enemies and never have been.
There are those who would make us retreat,
There they are.
There's no good in pretending we're all equal, we're not all the same,
They are thousands of miles away, a handful of citizens,
They, on the other hand, are formed by their philosophy.
This lot seem bound to do the same,
Today
Uh uh.
Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
We seek only an efficient industry.
We will stand on principle, or we will not stand at all
We're going to put it to bed tomorrow night,
We're having halibut.
What for?
When the Himalayan peasant meets the he bear in his pride,
Who is also a mother with a son of my own,
Will she, or will she not, be in the job tomorrow?
Winning candidate, Mr. Dodds, had better watch out.
Yes, and talked about bringing faith,
Yes, but in order to arrive at the palace on time,
Yes.
You agreed that we should reduce the naval presence in the area
You can never be sure she's taking them. I think sometimes she hides them.
You've got lovely hair, but we need to do something

(tires screech) Hey! Look out!
Anything could have happened. (guard) I understand
Blot it. Pardon?
Hear, hear, Prime Minister
Hear, hear. I'm sure we are all in agreement
How much is the milk? Forty nine pence.
I remember
I've got another... I would say keep the change,
It's terribly shameful. The point is, Prime Minister,
Mark? Mm.
Thank you. Give 'em hell.
the Conservative Party must stand. (toaster pops)
We must be armed. Agreed.
What did you say? Nothing, Prime Minister. Nothing
You've got Michael and... Jacqueline.

(Mr. Roberts) Never run with the crowd, Margaret. Go your own way.
