that`s an interesting choice since both movies are definitely dealing with more or less the same topic

She did "Boys Donīt Cry". So she sort of worked with this subject in a way before, thatīs good and the fact that a woman makes the film is good also.
But what is with Tomas Alfredson? I read that heīd do it somewhere, but not on imdb. -------------------- I love working with people who are inspired and obsessive. NK

But, I was thinking, the analogy between Boys Don't Cry and this will be too evident...

I actually think itīs an advantage to have such a director (if itīs true). She knows how to work with this subject without making it look ridiculous and stupid (like Jonathan Glazer handled it in "Birth". For another director it would have been easy to make it look ridiculous). -------------------- I love working with people who are inspired and obsessive. NK

Yes, she knows the subject and she did a great job with Boys Don't Cry, but I think that unfortunally people will make a comparison...The same "subject" for the same director..

Comparisons are inevitable, what can you do? But I'm just really happy this project is happening. I'm super excited about everything she's got lined up except for The Eighth Wonder.

Is it a good director?
I am curious if that will stay now or if itīll change again. Otherwise I have some wishes for directors lol QUOTE(carole @ Aug 16 2009, 09:25 AM) It's a good news because Boys don't cry it's a wonderful film. Who plays with Nicole? Nicole will play Einar Wegener and Charlize Theron will play the wife Greta Wegener. -------------------- I love working with people who are inspired and obsessive. NK

The director is Tomas Alfredson.
According to this person on IMDB (which has changed the name to Alfredson) he confirmed it: QUOTE Yes the director is official, and has himself reconfirmed so orally in the Swedish daily paper GP Göteborgsposten - http://www.gp.se/gp/jsp/Crosslink.jsp?d=286&a=517057 Charlize Theron is not in anymore, it is another actress that is going to play one of the main parts but name is still not given. Before this film Tomas Alfredson is also doing "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy" by John LeCarré. Must say really good to have him as director in a Scandinavian story so it wont be to Americanized.. We Scandinavians have a more liberal sight in sexuality than most, in a natural way. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0810819/board/flat/144608032?p=1 Just curious, whoīs gonna play Greta Does someone speak Swedish and could maybe translate the text?
