Yes! It sounds like it was a fun shoot, I'm guessing the skydiving story in NZ from Vogue was the TLBO gang too! And Alicia spent time with Cianfrance in NYC the other night so they clearly get along well.


Yes the skydiving was planned in NZ during the TLBO shoot. There were loads of fun times - dolphin watching, wine tasting at vineyards and BBQs on the beach amongst others [emoji2]
 
Along with that, all the people who accuse her of using her bf to get the spotlight. The girl is currently gathering practically every critics awards and acting nominations there is. She has her OWN spotlight. She'd be going to the GG's and SAGs (and probably the Oscars) no matter who she was dating. I'd be surprised if half of the critics giving her these awards even knew who she was dating, let alone cared. They're awarding her based on her performances which are almost universally praised.
True. And yes,she's being awarded for her performances. The praise is absolutely deserved.

Hahaha, I like that expression. Because it's probably really true. I mean it's also Derek Cianfrance. He hasn't done lots of films but the ones he's done he really delivered. So I'm actually looking forward to this one.

I just find it funny to prove all those wrong who said she's some nobody actress. If a nobody actress can get a Vogue cover nowadays everything is possible. This is someone who actually put work in for the last couple years and now gets the rewards for it. Plus she's talented, of course.
I remember seeing her at the Berlinale Shooting Stars events back in the days and thought this one's gonna be big.

Btw, I really love the Vogue short film. I like the way she acts in there. It's something different from what I've seen from her before.
If a "Swedish nobody" (quoting "someone" in the other thread..)can get roles with a BAFTA nomination,a prize at the Berlin FF,a resumé which includes an oscar nominated movie,everything is possible! :laugh:
I also like the short film. :graucho:

I prefer her everyday look too. She looks really cute in these last pics posted by BagBerry.

As I thought, Tom and Lorenzo like the Vogue shoot.

We like her. She comes off more interesting than the average movie star – especially the type who’ve had the year she’s having. She seems like she’s got her head screwed on straight, all things considered. Then again, this could be her publicist speaking, for all we know.

Anyway, we also love the styling here, because it seems to be looks that only she can make work, which is always a sign of good editorial styling to our way of thinking. Anyone can pick out a pretty gown for her, but it takes an eye to settle on those Dries Van Noten pants for her.
I agree. She really makes work the most unusual clothes. And I love the Dries Van Noten pants.

Posting this quote from the Vogue article because it is EXACTLY what I thought we might get from her in The Light Between Oceans:



Obviously he's promoting her and his movie, but this is the direction I thought they might take with that character, and it is really exciting. She really gets to actress her little heart out in that movie.
:yes: I'm really looking forward to it.

Colleagues tend to point out Alicia’s self-discipline, her drive, her seriousness of purpose. In an email, Fassbender praised her intense physicality, “the way she embodies her characters from head to toe.” They assume these qualities came from a decade of ballet, and while they may be right, these could have been the traits that pushed Vikander toward ballet in the first place. “In dance, if you don’t get it right, you do it again and again and again,” Redmayne observes. “There are no kid gloves the way there are sometimes on a movie set, where you’re allowed to save the best performance for the close-up. Alicia grew up with that work ethic. When she came to audition for The Danish Girl, she had just come from The Man from U.N.C.L.E., and she needed to leave in the middle to shoot The Light Between Oceans. I said, ‘You’ve got to take a holiday.’ But no, her appetite was too rapacious for that.”

The director was moved to tears. “Eddie saw me crying after the scene ended,” he recalls, “and he said to me later, ‘Well, there’s no great suspense around who you’re going to cast.’ The only other person who’s overpowered me in an audition that way was Annie Hathaway when she came in to read for Les Misérables.”
:laugh:
