Mehhhh

Rating: 6/10 (10 December 2016)

The acting is brilliant. No question. It is so good that the guy deserved an Oscar for it. As for the story itself, the subject is so far away from what I like that it never felt really entertaining. The story of a Danish painter who is married to a lovely woman painter and poses for her one day so she can finish a painting about a ballerina. The ballerina being unavailable, she asks her husband to dress as a woman. What the husband experiences is indescribable unless you have had some transvestite interests, but the point is that what he feels right there is life changing. For him, being dressed as a woman is what he loves, and he feels that he is a woman trapped in a man's body. A woman that he will call Lily. What starts as a silly playful act turns out to be something that brings unhappiness to the couple, as the wife fights for her husband to stop dressing as a woman. Unfortunately, everything escalates to the point where her husband and Lily become two different people of whom Lilly has more possibilities of surviving.
