Review of The Lady

The Lady (2011)
1/10
Naive film about a power hungry manipulator
22 April 2018
Knowing what we know now about the Rohingya genocide, this film seems so naive. I guess the production team involved did not really know that Suu Kyi was just in it to grab power, presumably because she felt entitled as her father ruled the country earlier. It really spoiled the film for me. How stupid it looks now to see the glorification of a person lacking in basic humanity. You may watch it but with the knowledge that its basically a propaganda piece about a person who was cunning enough to dress up her lust for power as a noble cause. I'd rather watch any other movie than spend time watching propaganda.
