"Show Me Lovers Reunite
by Phil on February 15, 2010

In 1998, teenage Swedish actresses Alexandra Dahlstrom and Rebecka Liljeberg, then fourteen and seventeen respectively, became superstars in their homeland for their performances as two schoolgirls falling in love in “Fucking Amal” (retitled “Show Me Love” for more prudish Western audiences).

The film, which out-grossed “Titanic” in Sweden, has become a cult classic for film lovers the world over and remains a cultural touchstone in its homeland, a fact which was reinforced by an unexpected reunion between the stars of the film earlier this month. Alexandra Dahlstrom, now twenty six, has continued to pursue both an acting and directing career – her most recent picture being Swedish comedy “Manana”, released there last year – while Liljeberg (now 28) after a couple of other movies such as family adventure “Sherdil” (also 1998) and the bizarre fairytale “Bear’s Kiss” (2001), retired from acting to pursue a career as a pediatrician and raise a family, and had not made a public appearance since a spot on a late night Swedish talk show in 2004 – until now.

On the first of February, at the country’s annual Gay Festival, “Fucking Amal” was again honoured for its impact on audiences and positive representation of homosexuals, and in a most unexpected development, both Alexandra Dahlstrom and Rebecka Liljeberg, reunited for the first time since 1999, dropped by to pick up the award, express gratitude that the story of the film was still touching audiences, and even drink a celebratory toast (of the Swedish chocolate milk drink “O’Boy”, as their characters were last seen sharing in the final scene of the film). Whether Liljeberg’s appearance indicates she may be considering a return to show-business after completion of her pediatric studies, or it will remain a one-off, the moment was nonetheless a joyously nostalgic reminder for fans of the enduring power of this iconic cult film."


Is this Ian using the nom de plume "Phil"? :lol:
No wonder he gets the big bucks. :P

Not sure if these are new as I'm losing track of what's on Stureplan.

Alright, ALRIGHT!! Don't nag Ian ''Johan'' Cult! :evil: It was a guess that's it, I can't remember them all. And where were you when a certain person :wink: gave you all the tip off about the QX gig? *coughs* Oh ye of little faith :D You should spend more time trolling lesbisk blogs, but ooh I forgot you aren't a lesbisk. Not even a Drag Queen. :lol: It was only the fanatical devotion (bordering on the clinically insane) of Uncle Fish, brought these gems to light. :Y

:lol:

To be fair, snaps, your initial report sounded more like one of Kyle's dreams than anything else! :lol: :wink:

Never been so pleased to be proven wrong, though. :D

Don't you just get sick of all these bloggers who bump into Alex at this club or in that bar, but never, EVER, have a camera or even a mobile phone to take a picture. :x

I think that last one was just a fluke on this Google.http://images.google.se/imghp?hl=sv&tab=wi

There's heaps of undiscovered stuff there, you just have to learn not to take no for an answer when your search engine of choice tells you there's nothing to be found.

Obsessive compulsive or merely persistently dedicated. Take your pick. :T

Ok, ok. I know which one. :T

I figured she must have been at the Stockholm Fashion Week so that's what "bilder" I searched for, then narrowed that search down to pics of Alex.

These are some of the results, most of which have been posted before.

Now there was text with this one which indicated that it was Alex with her mother, taken in 2004.

Well, that's new to me (as is the 3rd one).

I wouldn't even have known to look for that, fishy! Bless the obsessive compulsive/dedicated. :wink:
