... of John le Carré's Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy, to be directed by the Swedish director TomasAlfredson from a script by Peter Morgan . Alfredson won rave reviews earlier this year for his 80s-set vampire drama Let the Right One In .

... VARGAS and Aaron Katz’s heartfelt mumblecore DANCE PARTY, USA. (I also want to give a shout-out to TomasAlfredson’s extraordinary vampire pic LET THE RIGHT ONE IN, even though the outcasts in this movie are a little too young – or, in the case of Eli the vampire, a little too young-looking – to qualify.) I had high hopes for Sollett’s 2008 adaptation of NICK & NORAH’S INFINITE PLAYLIST,...

Filming started last week on Let Me In, the Hollywood remake of beguiling 2007 Swedish horror Let the Right One In, TomasAlfredson's icy tale of a lonely young boy who falls in love with a prepubescent vampire. In place of the original's Lina Leandersson, a strikingly gothic 12-year-old with a weirdly adult demeanour, Cloverfield director Matt Reeves has cast the rather more conventional...
... taking the second lead role in The Danish Girl , the next film from Let the Right One In director TomasAlfredson . The story is about the first post-op transsexual, Einar Wegener, and his/her relationship with supportive wife Greta. Nicole Kidman , attached for some time now, is a slightly outlandish bit of casting for Einar. Paltrow will be be Greta. Love that Alfredson is...

... Danish Girl is a drama full of, well, drama, and because it's directing by Let the Right One In 's TomasAlfredson , the cineastes will probably line up for it. Here's the breakdown of the plot from Variety :
Gwyneth Paltrow and Nicole Kidman playing lovers, sounds intriguing right? Even better when LET THE RIGHT ONE IN helmer TomasAlfredson is behind it. Where it get possibly creepy though is having Kidman play a dude... Prosthetic-nose time again? It kinda Oscar-worked the last time... Gwyneth joins THE DANISH GIRL, produced by Kidman herself through her Blossom Films shingle and based...

The upcoming The Danish Girl is one of those independent, edgy films that has all the right elements for something brilliant, but it's subject matter is so tricky that it could end up becoming a farce. Based on David Ebershoff's novel, The Danish Girl is the story of the world's first post-operative transsexual, Einar Wegener, and his wife, Greta. TomasAlfredson is set to direct, Nicole...
I was intending on re-watching Tomas Alfredson’s Let the Right One In for my horror movie marathon, but I didn’t. I reviewed this movie before, but I did not give credit where credit was due to superior film that blows Twilight out of the water. Now, that the remake, Let Me In is coming soon, [...]
