She was 10 last week so she moved only 7 places. 'Ex Machina' is very popular on imdb, still 5 and Alicia performance is praised by almost everyone, even by fanboys that are also impressed by her beauty ;)

The last week I have been lurking and reading in different places, mostly "fansites" of Michael and some few pages for Alicia and I must say sadly it´s so much negativity out there.
No, I´m not a young girl who wants to be Alicia and thinks she´s the best thing happened to Michael, I just think they (for now) are in love and we´ll see how long their relationsship last.

My "problem" is that suddenly a lot of Michaels fans?? say that she is a famewhore, noone knew who she was before dating Michael and he should know better than dating her.

Of course she isn´t a regular name abroad, but in the film circle she have been observed the last years, a few prices and nominations outside Sweden.
She have got great rewievs from Ex-Machina and The testament of youth and these have nothing to do with Michael!!

In Sweden she have been om musical stage since she was 7, danced balett and did her debut in Swedish Tv when she was 19. In 2010 she got a "Guldbagge" for best actress,
it´s Swedens finest filmprice. :smile1:

Then 2012 she did her debut abroad in Anna Karenina and A Royal Affair, so when I read that she was nobody before she met Michael I just SMH.

I don´t say she is better then others actress, I just mean that she can stand on her own feet.;)

There is also a lot of speculation if she had boyfriends before ....:p of course she had but she have never talked about her boyfriends, yes some pictures at parties, normal I think!!

Sorry for my rant, in here I think it´s calm but outside this thread it´s a different thing

You sure are vocal for being a casual "lurker" online :confused: Your rant sounds like you are way too invested in their relationship and what others think.

P.S. - No amount of anonymous posting online will change people's opinion. I'm no longer a hard core fan of his because I've seen him change over the years for the worst. Hopefully he will recover and not become Colin Farrell or Gerard Butler 2.0

Most people who say she was a nobody before Michael are either just general movie goers or mainly Americans not paying much attention to European film.

I knew her before the Fassdong too, mainly because of the Skarsgårds but I also bought a DVD of one of her films in Stockholm a few years back (still looking for Pure). The logic behind those people's statement is if I didn't know her before she's not famous and therefore only uses MF. Anna Karenina and The Royal Affair definitely put her on the map. If you haven't seen it, it's not Alicia's fault. But try talking reason into die hard fans.

I'm always cautious with reviews. Just because an actor gets good reviews doesn't mean he's known. I hardly read reviews because I don't like letting another person form my opinion about a film. Same goes for the Oscars. I've learned they're not to be trusted when it comes to awarding great films. Actors get known for films that are seen by many and then are deemed good. The general public hardly cares for film critics. So yeah it's good for her if film critics think she's great but I don't think it helps her getting widely known.

Here's another picture of her from Cannes.

I knew her before Fassy as well. A little because of the Skarsgard's but I saw her in The Royal Affair and she was very good.

Just because she's suddenly popped up on a MF fan's radar, doesn't mean she hasn't been on the radar before that.
