Alors que le pays est en plein conflit social, avec émeutes et même attentats sanglants, le Britannia Hospital s'apprête à fêter ses 500 ans d'existence en recevant la Reine-mère, pour une visite des différents services et l'inauguration d'un tout nouveau bâtiment réservé au Professeur Millar. Anglais jusqu'au bout des ongles (parfaitement manucurés), ce ponte de la médecine cultive une mégalomanie galopante entretenue par une assistante dévouée corps et âme. Dans son antre ultra-moderne, il entretient des membres humains prélevés sur des patients fraîchement décédés (et qu'il a d'ailleurs parfois aidés pour cela) dans le but de réaliser une expérience de chirurgie totale et de créer un homme de toutes pièces. Oui, Millar est un nouveau Docteur Frankenstein...

Margaret

2009 113 min 5 vues

A detailed and compelling portrait of one of the most formidable characters in British politics as she faces her final days in power. The year is 1990 and Margaret Thatcher's support within the government is wavering - her hold on the premiership hangs in the balance. Then, long-serving politician Sir Geoffrey Howe resigns over Thatcher's attitude to Europe. His resignation speech sparks a chain of events that leads to the overthrow of Britain's first woman prime minister. This modern dramatic tragedy illustrates the strengths and fatal flaws of this iconic woman more clearly than ever before and reveals how the very aspects of her character that helped her secure power are the ones that ensured her downfall. Drama starring Lindsay Duncan.
