Apparently, there’s nowhere to go but down. From the gossp column of the NY Post.
OLIVER Stone plans to explore the possibility of an affair between former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and President Ronald Reagan in his next movie. Stone has apparently always been enamored of Baroness Thatcher, now 79, and wants to cast Meryl Streep (above) in the role in an upcoming biopic, reports the London Sun.

Alexander had pretty horses to help save it.

So when this one bombs, will it be a sad commentary on ageism in our society or will it be because moviegoers aren’t ready to accept a movie about strong female leader?
