The Iron Lady - Clip #1 What we think, we become

[catayric]

Those lines comes from the book seven habits from the hightly effective people also from the james gospel

[udontnoimkool]

Hi, I tried posting a clip from a film awhile back, and it was removed by the company, so my question is how do you get permission to show these clips? I would appreciate if you helped, thanks.

[SummerHaze12]

She blows my mind.

[MegaMontero]

And the Oscar Goes to.... Marvelous Meryl Streep!!!

[kristbjorg999]

Meryl Streep and Margaret Thatcher amazing women

[kristbjorg999]

amazing words

[rosabaptista]

"WATCH YOUR THOUGHTS FOR THEY BECOME WORDS. WATCH YOUR WORDS FOR THEY BECOME ACTIONS. WATCH YOUR ACTIONS FOR THEY BECOME HABITS. WATCH YOUR HABITS FOR THEY BECOME YOUR CHARACTER, AND WATCH YOUR CHARACTER FOR IT BECOMES YOUR DESTINY! WHAT WE THINK WE BECOME."

[MrR12K]

Absolutely amazing!!

[a1skinlicklozz]

Watch your thoughts for they become actions... Watch your actions for they become habits... Watch your habits for they become your character and watch your character for it becomes your destiny! WHAT WE THINK, WE BECOME! These lines I believe are inspired by THE LAW OF ATTRACTION

[arielboq]

Amazing actress, so talented and committed to improve every role she gets

[bjbinmke]

This is my favorite scene in the movie, and may well be one of Meryl Streep's finest moments.

[FadeToBlack888]

@bjbinmke haha yeah, this is such a typical thatcher rant <3

[edwardgod]

Breathtaking

[mkatmakat]

I don't know if the, "What we think we become" soliloquy is original to this film, but it's brilliant. I know that the wisdom is certainly not new, but the phrasing of it, THIS phrasing, is so perfect. Succinct, efficient, and poetic.

As someone who really needs to live and learn this lesson right now, these lines are particularly timely. At the risk of sounding very silly, I just typed those 6 line out and will put them on my fridge. And my cupboards. And my mirror.

[theincredible7]

@mkatmakat would you mind type the lines up again? such inspring lines and I cannot hear all of them :(

[agungpurnomo8]

@theincredible7 she spoke in a granny short of voice but faintly i can hear 'whatch you thoughts so they become your words, whatch your words so they become your actions, watch your actions so they become your habits, watch you habits so they become your character and watch your character for it becomes your destiny! what we think is what we become!" I hope it's correct!

[annedaae]

Brilliant..

[SebastianJD22]

Meryl thought she was going to be an amazing actress, and se became in a extraordinary actress.. Wordless!

[ArzuKumbaroglu]

This woman became my idol since when I watched this film..!

[misled1982]

SHE SO IS SOOOOO FREAKING AMAZING!!! I CAN SEE MARGARET THATCHET!!!! SHE NAILS IT!

[Selenator87]

WHAT AN ARTIST!

I guess America must be really proud of her (for having the best actress of all time as a native of the USA).

Greets from Spain.

[sonia361000]

Can´t belive THIS is a performance, I mean THIS is beyond a simple performance THIS is more much better.

[AndrewMcy]

What do you think we Become?

[trailmarker30]

Meryl just is getting better and better...here comes another Oscar!

[monolito2o]

This is perfect...

[monolito2o]

Love it!

[2legit64]

Ho-ly cow! She has Margaret Thatcher down pat. I can't wait to see this film. As much as I loved Viola Davis in "The Help", if Meryl Streep doesn't win the Oscar for this role, I don't know what she needs to do to get another one!

[ec123456789able]

This is amazing. Meryl Streep is unrecognisable here. Obviously, make-up plays a part, but her voice, facial expressions, and accent, completely lead me to believe that this is actually Margaret Thatcher herself.

This is an amazing performance. I don't see how anyone could steal the Oscar from this.

[partygirl209]

that scene alone could've earned her a Oscar nom!!

[eFrace11]

Oscar.

[jeffgraham91]

bahaha, WTF SHES SO GOOD

[itainani]

Just like Charlize Theron in "Monster" (2003). Unrecognizably awesome!

[dancox01]

I thought Meryl was supposed to be in this... can someone point her out for me

[backto1960]

RIVETING!!!! ABSOLUTELY RIVETING. AMERICA'S GREATEST LIVING ACTRESS DESERVES OSCAR NUMBER 3.

[MalleSR]

Wauw! When I saw the first picture of Meryl as Julia Child, I was like: "That is NOT Meryl Streep!"

But this certainly beat the Julia Child outfit! OMG! IS THAT MERYL STREEP?????

[potentialavalanche]

I'm usually not such a pansy, but my favorite scene in this movie is when the young Margaret was dancing with the young Dennis.

[ard446]

the real margaret is in the film? i don,t understand, why?

[charlieiscool1000]

@ard446 No margaret Thatcher is Not an actress she was a former prime minster and politician who is now a very old lady Meryl Streep is an actress that is playing her in this film.

[ard446]

@charlieiscool1000 of course, but in this video she dont seem meryl, she seem the current margaret

[Frogsmere]

SHE MUST GET THE OSCAR! SHE MUST! 

[anneofcleaves]

I keep trying to find Meryl in this clip and I literally cannot! She is truly phenomenal!

[angelaoboe22]

Meryl Streep is the best... the BEST!!!

[83annak]

speechless! She is so convincing. I cannot detect Meryl ... I only see an old demented Iron Lady! WOW! Of course, she deserves her third Oscar more than I can tell, but even if she will not succeed in that, she already succeeded in being the most brilliant actress of the second half of the 20th century and beyond! And THAT FACT speeks for itself!

[jor1220]

Wonderful!! This could probably become one of the classic female monologue for actress in auditions.....

[Larisa681]

The best actress!!!

[TheMysteriousBook]

Holy Shit is this Meryl :D WOOOOW !

[godzuki1974]

"what we think, we become" is plagiarised from this Gandhi quote! The only humanity in the movie required some Gandhi? Isn't that a little ironic :)

[ArbelBashLoberant]

im BLOWN away!!!( away away...)

[bootsamou]

Wow ! Brilliant.

In other clips I've seen, it looks like Jennifer Saunders & I keep expecting Dawn to pop out !

But, yeah, Meryl is fantastic.

[Ryantrev88]

only criticism is that the film was abit short - but that says alot about how compelling the film is. For those who were looking for more about her political life I guess a proper documentary would be more appropriate. However the director has taken one slide out of many and has shown some aspects of what is a very complex character and story and in that context, it has been beautifully created. As for Meryl Streep, she does not need an Oscar

nor any more praise - she is the supreme Master!

[chocolatehaemonculus]

@Ryantrev88 Well said dude, beautifully put.

[aprilwearsgucci]

OSCAR! OSCAR! OSCAR!

[kerrzo1971]

Poll Tax.



[lasbagman1]

Wow , is all I can say , America"s best actress literally becomes someone else. It's amazing.

[WaryRox]

My God! Where is Meryl????!!!! Le Streep has done it again! This is a must see for me and my daughter!

[Manoftheswamp]

I've always adored Margaret Thatcher.

[ectomy1235]

the film focussed too much on thatcher as an old lady, rather than her politics and her life as the PM, it was also too rushed, trying to tell the story from memories as an old lady

[ectomy1235]

@ctnelsonuk but i wanted the film to be about her political experience not memories from an old woman!

[ctnelsonuk]

@ectomy1235 Well.... ok, well when you write your own screenplay you can make it about whatever you want. This film was about the memories of a strong leader seen through the eyes of the vulnerable old lady she is now.

[ectomy1235]

@ctnelsonuk well im not planing to make a screenplay, does this mean ill have to read a book about the iron lady to found out about her politcs??? She does have dementia doesnt she? Somebody told me she does now

[ctnelsonuk]

@ectomy1235 Yep - you'll have to read a book about her politics to find out about her politics. And yes, Thatcher has dementia and hence the film focusing on that. Perhaps you should wait to see the movie and then you can always go and read up on her policies. It's not hard, there's plenty of information out there!

[breathroughartist]

@ectomy1235 that was the point lol.....

[ectomy1235]

@breathroughartist but i wanted to know about her politics! Maybe ill have to read a book instead

[elizebethjames]

it's uncanny, i have watched this over and over, it's just awesome to watch. her best work yet i think

[elizebethjames]

my god, this is amazing! she is more margaret than margaret!

[324wilson]

DAMN!!!! I want to see this movie NOW!

[prljam886]

Remarkable acting! She is simply amazing! Who cares if she wins the Oscar or not - this will not change the fact that she is arguably the best actress ever lived. Peter O'Toole has never won an Oscar for acting, Hitchcock has never won it, Kubrick has never won it for direction too: its about what you have created and what you leave behind you for the generations, not some useless awards...and this acting will be remembered!

[mstreep4eva]

By my name you can clearly tell that I love and adore everything about Meryl Streep, but I just got lost in this, it's like it isn't her. This is virtually perfect - and that isn't me being bias, that is me watching as a human, not as a die hard Meryl Streep lover.

[brunorapone94]

If Meryl don't win an Oscar: it's war, bitch!

[Catharina937]

Oh wow ..... I am really speechless right now. This is going to be huge. I know it will.

[kidman4ever]

Meryl will win the oscar oh yes

[kitklein94]

if she don´t get the oscar i will kill the acadamy :D

[manbot32]

My godness! This will go down in the historybooks as one of the best acting performances of all time!!

[MrsLisaPotter]

This isn't Meryl this is Margaret :o!

[nininha219]

@MrsLisaPotter Indeed!

[karlaSinger]

WOW... just... WOW!

[HectorBarbossa]

I LOVE MERYL!!! :D
