Pick your movie of the week: Alicia Vikander (Feb 13-19/22)

When I hear that a movie is coming out with Alicia Vikander in it, I instantly want to see it. You may not be familiar with her, but she’s a Swedish actress who you may recognize as being in the newer Tomb Raider movie that came out a few years ago. She was also in Light Between Oceans in 2016 with Michael Fassbender and Rachel Weisz. Here are three that were excellent movies where she really made an impression on me. You choose the one to be the Movie of the Week:

Ex Machina (2014)A young programmer is selected to participate in a ground-breaking experiment in synthetic intelligence by evaluating the human qualities of a highly advanced humanoid A.I.

The Danish Girl (2015)A fictitious love story loosely inspired by the lives of Danish artists Lili Elbe and Gerda Wegener. Lili and Gerda’s marriage and work evolve as they navigate Lili’s groundbreaking journey as a transgender pioneer.

Earthquake Bird (2018)An enigmatic translator with a dark past is brought in for questioning after an ex-pat friend, who came between her and her photographer boyfriend, ends up missing and presumed dead.
