The Lady is a 2011 British biographical film directed by Luc Besson,[6] starring Michelle Yeoh[7] as Aung San Suu Kyi and David Thewlis[8] as her late husband Michael Aris.[9] Yeoh called the film "a labour of love" but also confessed it had felt intimidating for her to play the Nobel laureate.[10]
In 1947, a young Aung San Suu Kyi spends time with her father Aung San, who led Burma to independence. Soon afterwards, he, along with a group of colleagues, is assassinated by armed men in uniform.[11]
In 1988, Aung San Suu Kyi, now happily married with family in England, returns to Burma to see her ill mother, finding that her father is still widely remembered. Upon visiting her mother in hospital, she meets injured patients from the Tatmadaw's crackdown in the 8888 Uprising. She realises that political change is needed in Burma and is drawn into the reform movement.[12] She then accepts the role of icon in support of democracy by the Burmese people and devotes herself to activities in support of greater political freedoms.[13]
Aung San Suu Kyi establishes the National League for Democracy and wins the 1990 elections. However, the Burmese military refuses to accept the results and moves to rein in Aung San Suu Kyi. She and her family are separated when her husband and children were banned from Burma and she is put under a house arrest for more than a decade.[14] Her husband Michael Aris keeps up a relentless struggle for Aung San Suu Kyi's recognition outside Burma. Due to their efforts, she receives the Nobel Peace Prize. As Aung San Suu Kyi could neither attend the ceremony, her family accepts the Prize on her behalf. The military later offers Aung San Suu Kyi a chance to see her dying husband but refuses, knowing that she will not be allowed to return to Burma. After grieving her husband's death, she continues her political work, appearing to supporters from behind her gate while still under house arrest.
Rebecca Frayn began working on the project after she and her husband, producer Andy Harries had visited Burma in the early 1990s.[15] Harries' production company Left Bank Pictures began development of the script in 2008. Harries wanted Michelle Yeoh as the lead and had the script sent to her.[15] The actress was thrilled because she had always wanted to play Suu Kyi.[16] She visited London to meet the couple.[17] The script was as British as its origin, telling the story solely from Michael Aris' perspective but Michelle Yeoh claimed she brought an Asian insight to it. Her husband Jean Todt (who later on also accompanied the project as accredited producer) encouraged her to contact his country fellowman and friend Luc Besson.[18][19][20] Besson accepted the script immediately as an opportunity for him to finally present a real life heroine, a female fighter who wields no other weapons than her human virtues.[21]
During the shooting of the film, news broke that Aung San Suu Kyi's house arrest had been lifted. Luc Besson hesitated to believe what he saw on TV because it looked so much like his recent footage.[22] Yeoh visited Suu Kyi soon afterwards.[23] She would say later it had been like visiting a dear family member.[24] When they discussed the film the actress got the feeling she was still on the film set because Luc Besson had recreated the house so accurately.[25] Aung San Suu Kyi even gave her a hug.[26] On 22 June 2011 Yeoh wanted to visit Suu Kyi a second time but was deported from Burma, reportedly over her portrayal of Aung San Suu Kyi.[27] This time Besson was allowed to meet Suu Kyi.[28] Suu Kyi said she would hesitate to watch the film because she was not too sure to be up to it already, although she asked for a copy.[29]
Writer Rebecca Frayn interviewed a number of Suu Kyi's confidants and based her screenplay on the testimonies.[30][31] Some supporters provided Frayn information only because she wouldn't disclose these sources, and her work was openly appreciated by Suu Kyi's brother-in-law Anthony Aris.[32]
To portray Suu Kyi, Michelle Yeoh watched about two hundred hours of audiovisual material on Suu Kyi and took lessons in Burmese.[33] Her talent for languages is evident when she delivers Suu Kyi's historic speeches in Burmese.[34] The actress had refreshed her skills as a piano player.[35] Despite always having been petite, Michelle Yeoh evidently lost weight to embody Suu Kyi whose son had stressed that his mother was slimmer than Yeoh.[36][37]
Luc Besson stated later Michelle Yeoh "had perfected Suu Kyi's appearance and the nuances of her personality to such an extent that the lines between the real human being and the portrayed character blurred when they crossed in real life".[38]
To achieve authenticity Luc Besson engaged many Burmese actors and extras. Some of them, like Thein Win, re-enacted their personal memories.[39] Once or twice the filming of a scene had to stop because Michelle Yeoh's performance of a speech (in Burmese) elicited outbursts of emotion among extras who had originally heard Suu Kyi.[40]
Co-producer Andy Harries concentrated on substantiating the British part of his wife's script. He achieved authenticity of the happy time in Suu Kyi's life, when she lived with her family in the United Kingdom. Their flat was also recreated on a sound stage, although the film includes scenes shot on location in front of the house itself.[41] The scenes showing Michael Aris as a dying cancer patient were also shot on location in the actual hospital.[42]
The Lady had its world premiere on 12 September 2011 at the 36th Toronto International Film Festival. On 29 October 2011 it was shown as closer at the Doha Tribeca Film Festival.[43] Cohen Media Group, the US distributor of the film, had a one-week limited Academy Engagement theatrical run in Los Angeles during 2–8 December 2011. Moreover, there was an exclusive screening at the Asia Society in New York.[11] Mongrel Media released the film in Canada on 6 April 2012.[44]
The European premiere took place when the film served as opening film of the Rome Film Festival on 27 October 2011.[45] In the UK The Lady was distributed by Entertainment Film Distributors.[19] It was distributed by EuropaCorp throughout Continental Europe. In Germany's cinemas the film opened on 15 March.[46]
In Asia The Lady was closer of the International Hua Hin Film Festival where Michelle Yeoh declared she planned on visiting Burma again.[40][47] The screening had such a packed house that eventually a second screen was provided.[48] On 2 February 2012 the film was released in Thailand and Singapore.[49] On 3 February it had its premiere in Hong Kong, followed by a theatrical release on 9 February.[50] In Burma, a great number of pirated versions are distributed privately.[51]
The film received mixed reviews, generally negative in the west, but stronger in the east. English critics often appreciated the efforts of the leading actress, Michelle Yeoh, and the performance of English actor David Thewlis while criticising director/producer Luc Besson. American critics joined the criticism of Luc Besson. In Asia, the reception was more positive.
