Helen Mirren, who plays Israel's first female prime minister in her latest film, says she has been inspired by the widespread protests against the country's current prime minister.
Mirren, who portrays the late Golda Meir during the 1973 war between Israel and a coalition of Arab states in “Golda,” is visiting an Israel similarly beset by crisis as mass demonstrations take place against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's plan to overhaul the country's judicial system.
