It's sad to watch the miniseries biopic A Woman Called Golda, since Ingrid Bergman was suffering from breast cancer during filming and died before she could accept her Emmy award. She knew it would be her last role, and some of the scenes when Golda talks about her mortality and legacy are tough to watch.
If you're interested in Israeli history or want to learn about Golda Meir's life, from her life as a young girl to her retirement and death, this is an educational miniseries. Judy Davis plays young Golda (and she's a very good likeness to Ingrid), who gets romanced by Leonard Nimoy even though she's a feminist and doesn't want her eventual place to be the kitchen. The story is told in lengthy flashbacks narrated by Anne Jackson (who plays Golda's friend and colleague) as an elderly Golda gives a lecture to elementary school kids. It's a well made two-parter, especially when real footage is spliced in, but it isn't exactly enjoyable. For Ingrid fans, I'd recommend a movie when she's in better health.
