Alex bits and pieces

[fish]

No idea what she's saying in this clip but they all look like they're having fun.

Heaps of other clips and stuff here if you search for "alexandra dahlström".
But I think we've pretty much seen them all.

Nice find, fishy!

You can never download the bloody ones from that site, though.

Wish she'd speak English more often too, so we could understand what the hell she's saying!

Downloaded fine for me using the Realplayer download.

Wouldn't it be nice if some kind Swedish speaking person gave us a translation, or even just an idea of what it was all about. Do we know anyone like that?

Weeeeeeeeeeell, it's all a question of money, my friends.



Basically, it's another one of those "alex talks about her filmmaking"-films that she has been doing for svt, which is a swedish TV-channel. She introduces us to her photographer, talks about his beard, then shares with us that they're taking a cab somewhere she says that it's important to keep your mood up (everyone looks pretty tired). Then they jump to another place in stockholm, where they seem to have been shooting all night. She reveals the scandalous news that most of the cast use extensions in the film. They talk a bit about, like, filming and how tired they are (lol it sounds so pointless when translating ) then she turns the camera kinda randomly out over the water and talks about how beautiful Stockholm is. She then finishes by looking straight into the camera, stating that -" I'm gonna appear completely demented on this thing. But I guess that's what happens when you work in filmmaking. But I'm happy".

Thanks for that triddy.

MY Real Player says "This clip is not downloadable from this site".

WTF?!?!

...MY Real Player says "This clip is not downloadable from this site".
WTF?!?!

You just need a bit more influence with Ms. Real Player.
Maybe you need to follow the advice of a very smart person....

Weeeeeeeeeeell, it's all a question of money, my friends.

No problem downloading it here.

[Ian]

Well bugger me, it's downloaded tonight!

Must have just been in a mood last night!

[fish]

I suppose you're just lying back having a smoke about now.

[Ian]

Glad you said you downloaded it with RP, fish, otherwise I probably wouldn't have tried again. Cheers.

[fish]

Welcome.

I'm not used to praise, only to being held up as a bad example to others.

[Ian]

That's the highest praise there is.

[fish]

I'm pretty sure this has been posted already but, in case not, here it is again.

Around 28 min Shockwave vid of "I love språk", a type of chat show with various people who love to use "language".
In this episode the guests are actors Lia Boysen and Alexandra Dahlström.

I thought it funny that there is an option for subtitles but only if you want them in Swedish.
But then it was good seeing the words that were spoken too. Gave me a chance to understand slightly more than zero.

[Ian]

I'm not sure, to be honest.

Won't download either way.

[fish]

Can't help out here, won't download for me either.

But Alex is cute.
Alex, cute, is that a tautology?

[triddy]

Yay, I hadn't seen that, thanks a lot!

And also thanks for teaching me a new word, I had never heard "tautology" before and that language vid inspired me to click a couple buttons on my puter and look it up and for some reason I now also suddenly feel very inspired to learn Russian, who knew that that language could sound so awesome? it just had to be spoken by the right person I guess
