Happy to see Oscar Isaac.:smile1: She was runner up (Ex Machina) for the National Society of Film Critics' award.

That's what I thought they did with this dress. They went for the full on feminine, romantic look. Pink frilly dress, curly hair, delicate jewellery. I'm usually not a fan of pink anything but I find this look worked for her.

I agree. This Erdem is not particularly good but the color,the romantic look worked for her.

You really need to watch De Rouille et d'Os (Rust and Bone) with him and Marion Cotillard. He's amazing in it! Also Blood Ties and Bullhead which was his breakthrough film internationally since it got nominated for an Oscar. I can't wait until Suite Française is released here.

I think she was really good. She definitely deserved the nominations she's got so far but I also understand why people say she's stealing the show from Eddie. Eddie is good but Alicia is better. Maybe it's just my impression but Eddie played it very stereotypically feminine, a bit over the top sometimes.

I've not seen the movie but many critics think that his performance is too mannered.

Peter Debruge:
Even the strongest element of this gorgeously insipid movie works against it: Every vividly inhabited minute of Alicia Vikander’s performance puts to shame the mannered self-regard of Eddie Redmayne’s star turn as transgender pioneer Lili Elbe — all studied feminine mimicry with barely a flicker of interior life. Not that anyone else could have done much better with such gutlessly watered-down material, especially when Lili undergoes a groundbreaking gender-reassignment operation dramatized with all the corporeal trauma of a root canal.

This is a handsomely made picture, intelligent and sympathetic, with something of the uninsistent manner of Jan Morris’s memoir Conundrum. And it is well acted, particularly by Vikander; Redmayne does a fair bit of simpering and tittering as Lili, but his performance is consistent and thought through. My reservation is that there is a tasteful, chocolate-box presentation here that covers everything. Vikander is wonderfully pretty and Redmayne even more so. It is as if the movie is reassuring us that prettiness is what entitles you to transgender identity.

But the film’s secret weapon is Vikander, who’s been blessed with a role that has no truck whatsoever with the usual supportive wife banalities – at points she’s effectively its lead character. The Swedish actress glides into the film after a ludicrously busy 2015, in which she bounced between lead roles in Ex Machina and Testament of Youth, did fine supporting work in The Man From UNCLE, and even made a dignified cameo in the otherwise dignity-phobic chef drama Burnt. But here she’s better than ever – hungry, energised, up on the balls of her feet, and an equally convincing awards prospect. (Like Redmayne, she’s already been nominated for a Golden Globe, with surely more nominations to follow.)

She also perfectly delivers the film’s most moving line, which comes during her husband’s first consultation with a doctor about the operation that will finally bring nature up to speed with reality.

“I believe I am a woman,” Lili says haltingly, as if the words still strike her as somehow embarrassing, or ridiculous. Gerda turns to the doctor and says very calmly: “I believe it too.” That, perhaps even more so than the surgery, is the transformation that counts.

“Her general style is very European, which is timeless, effortless and understated,” said her stylist, Victoria Sekrier, a model turned editorial stylist who took on Ms. Vikander as her first celebrity client about a year ago. “We first met at a friend’s Christmas drinks party: You know how it is, quite randomly,” Ms. Sekrier added with a laugh.

The dude in the pic from the SAG screening sure looks happy to be standing beside her, lol. :laugh:

If she weren't already with Michael, I think her and Dom Gleeson would make a cute couple. I've seen a few pics of them together and they're supercute.
