Thoroughly evocative and compelling

This is one of the best films I have seen in a long time. It was highly entertaining, emotionally evoking and educational. I had known very little on the situation in Bhurma, and felt the summaries I read prior to visiting the cinema to see this film did not do justice to this cinematic gem. I came away from the screening determined to learn more and do what small part I could to right the wrongs portrayed in The Lady. The setting was wonderful, and I felt the cast played their parts marvellously. Many write ups of the film have criticised the length, however I do not think the story could have developed to give one a reasonable overview of the situation with a shorter script. It would be unnecessary to follow each of the characters' developments in the film, particularly given the length of time in question.

I would recommend this film to anyone as essential viewing, whether or not you have an interest in political affairs or not. The politics in The Lady is so simply set out and self- explanatory that anyone would understand the issues at hand.

Trivia
Following Suu Kyi's controversial reign as State Counsellor of Myanmar and her defense of the Rohingya genocide, both filmmaker Luc Besson and screenwriter Rebecca Frayn stated they regretted making this film.

Errores
The production of the assault rifle AK-47 began in 1949. The Burma soldiers cannot have this rifle in 1947.

Citas
Aung San Suu Kyi at 2 years old: Daddy, tell me a story.
Aung San - the Father: Hmm, well, I could tell you about the days when Burma was the Golden Land. Is that the kind of story you want?
Aung San Suu Kyi at 2 years old: Yes!
Aung San - the Father: Once upon a time, Burma was a beautiful country blessed with great forests of teak and ebony. This was a time when tigers still prowled the jungles, and elephants roamed the great plains. You'd find sapphires as blue as the bluest sky. And rubies redder than your cheeks. More jewels than a princess like you could ever wish for.
Aung San Suu Kyi at 2 years old: And then?
Aung San - the Father: Actually, it's a sad story. Soldiers from a faraway land came and stole all our precious things. That's how our country became so poor.
