    This was a Great movie. Although Golda died in 1974 while I was still a child, I had been curious as to just who she was. This movie really lets you see the intelligent, strong, woman that she was. I would have loved to have met her. If you like anything regarding history of Israel and when Israel became a nation , you will find a lot of it in this movie.

    A poignant postscript to this wonderful movie: it was Ingrid Bergman's last, as she would shortly succumb to cancer. But she played her role to the hilt, with great affection for Golda Meir, also a cancer victim. In retrospect, I wonder if the many cigarettes Bergman smoked in the film hastened her death. Judy Davis was also superb as the young Golda. I thought it was amazing that both women spoke in the same cadence, making you really believe you were seeing and hearing the same person at different stages of her remarkable life.

    Highly recommend. Not only are there superb actors but the political story is factually accurate and it provides an entertaining manner to learn some history about the beginnings of Israel, the conflicts then gives a better understanding of the present day conflicts..
