Thatcher’s life unfold from girlhood to her years as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Co-starring Meryl Streep.
I’m nothing like Denis, physically. It’s much easier for Meryl to look like Maggie Thatcher than it is for me to look like Denis! I quite liked getting the hair right and the teeth right. But I still don’t look like Denis! It’s helpful for me to make that journey to get a bit of distance from myself and try to get under his skin a bit.
