Perhaps the biggest surprise, at least in trailer form, was "Tulip Fever." The long-in-the-works adaptation of a novel by "Best Exotic Marigold Hotel" author Deborah Moggach, adapted by Tom Stoppard, is set during the tulip boom in Holland in the 17th century, and follows the romance between a young painter (Dane DeHaan) and the wife (Alicia Vikander) of a wealthy merchant (Christoph Waltz). It sounds like a familiar period piece, but while the footage didn't do a great job at setting up the time and the place, it succeeded in making it look like a costume drama with a bit of attitude, thanks to the high passion of the ludicrously attractive young leads, and a diverse and appealing supporting turn, including Jack O'Connell, Holliday Grainger, Cara Delevingne, Judi Dench and, for some reason, Zach Galafianakis. With "Mandela" director Justin Chadwick at the helm, we're a bit cautious, but it definitely looks better than expected.

I'm excited about Tulip Fever but i just hope Chadwick didn't make it looks like a soap opera like he did with The Other Boleyn Girl :p

just found out that her role in Adam Jones is apparently just as a cameo?
that awkward moment when the cameo is mentioned first in the cast list :laugh:

I wonder how that came about though. The tweeter seems to exaggerate a little on av but I'm not saying she's lying either. I guess Alicia doesn't like to be brought the wrong shoe hahah.

Yes,it's a cameo. In my opinion Tulip Fever will be another generic costume drama with some good performances (Waltz,Alicia,Dench,O'Conell). Weinstein has better material for this Awards Season... I think he will use the buzz for her other films (TDG,TLBO) to promote Tulip Fever,if it comes out this year. She has definetely a better shot with other roles.

Ex Machina has now a 91% approval rating on RT and it's doing pretty well at the BO.

Heh, she might be a *****. But in general, whether an actor has a bad reputation or not doesn't dictate my viewing choices. There's like no way on earth that she's worse than Charlize or Julia Roberts, and I still see their movies (when they look good).

Anyway, I've seen Ex Machina and Testament of Youth and she's superb in both. She's given an underwritten part in Ex Machina but manages to be very alluring and soft, rather than coldly robotic. It's like the mechanical aspects of the character only seep into a natural performance.

And in Testament of Youth, she carries a somewhat average film with a terrific character. Her Vera Brittain is headstrong and prickly but never irritating. We understand her frustration with the limitations for women of her era. And when the war breaks out, she displays a deep loyalty to her brother, friend, and fiance by devoting herself to nursing wounded soldiers, delaying the realization of her dream.
