Forget Scream, The Exorcist or Jaws: if you want a really scary film, the must-see movie release of the year features a demonic monster far more terrifying than Scream’s murderous Ghost Face, The Exorcist’s chundering child or Jaws’ fucked-off fish, and it’s all the more petrifying because it’s true.
The Iron Lady (aka ‘Thatcher – The Movie’) has just been released in British cinemas and I’m not happy. When I first heard they were making a film called The Iron Lady, I presumed it to be some spin-off from The Iron Man franchise, and that is precisely the worry. To many in Hollywood, the Iron Lady is as much of a hero as Iron Man, whereas for me the thought of Maggie as a noble superwoman doesn’t bear thinking about.
