Golda is a ticking-clock thriller set during the tense 19 days of the Yom Kippur War in 1973. Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir (Helen Mirren), faced with the potential of Israel’s complete destruction, must navigate overwhelming odds, a skeptical cabinet, and a complex relationship with US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger (Liev Schreiber), with millions of lives in the balance. Her tough leadership and compassion would ultimately decide the fate of her nation and leave her with a controversial legacy around the world.
Helen Mirren’s playing of Golda as a woman of steel, unafraid to take tough decisions, is astute; she also looks remarkably like the real Golda.
The Indian Express
Golda is a good drama about Israel that digs into the nation’s long-simmering moral ambiguities.
