Hey,

I recommend Underbara älskade, english title is Suddenly - i thought it was very moving and overall a beautiful film.
As it is in heaven is also a nice film, sweet story.
In both these films he is, like always, a very good actor!

I have not seen Together but it looks interesting and is seen as his breakthrough role, it also has very high ratings and good reviews.
Grabben i graven bredvid or ermm, kid in the grave next door is the english title, I have not seen either but he won a guldbagge for it.

i don't recommend London Voodoo, it's not good (my opinion and others on imdb agree) and michael is only in it for 5 minutes lol

Hey,
thanks for your response. Thank you so much. I live in Germany, and can get hold on a couple of films, but comparing to his many releases of films, not a lot. I can get some in our libery, there they have a swedish section.

I did see Underbara Alskade - one of the best films I have seen for a long time.
I saw: As it is in heaven (there he plays the musician, isn´t it?)
I started but stopped: Upproret. Its not my type of film.

What about this Millenium TV Series? How often is it on in Sweden?

Is there a swedish online store, where I can find more films where he is in?

Regards from Hamburg

Ah yeah I am in the same situation because i am studying in Australia, won't be in Sweden for quite some time.

Upproret is in danish? I think i was watching that online but there were no subtitles and I didnt understand everything haha
I recently watched some of the woman that dreamed about a man, michael looks very handsome in it :P but is more of a supporting actor in that film. and he is also speaking danish in that film ahhh
Änglavakt came out this year, he is a main actor in that.

I dont know about a swedish online store, but there is a lot of his movies on amazon.com

Kvinden der drømte om en mand - husband has few parts, but good
Bröllopsfotografen - Micke only few min in therat.play, but man, it´s 8-) /would love to see him in Jane Eyre last yr, saw only excerpt from rehersal and read many reviews, but could die to see him warming and changing, and could hear swedish as a tale to sleep with that voice8-)
Iscariot - yes, that´s a bad guy training for MI:GP, scene with the gun.. chills
Downloading Nancy - only few scenes, but beard, and golf talks
Kautokeino-opprøret-well,strong film alone,MN as priest,long"wig"but good acting
Arn - Tempelriddaren - big production, folkenkung and again, good
!The Black Pimpernel - my personal,short,could be longer and more events,but,apart everything, for me: english,spanish,details,flashback/dream seqvence,all in all, role for him
!Underbara älskade - one of personal family thing,northern cinema specialty,people´choice 2006

!Så som i himmelen-haters and lovers of this,yes,it´s naive and.. blabla, and grey hair made him looks ...but,one of defining roles!!
Dag och natt-some essential discussions,Persbrand and Nyqvist as 2actors of their generation,eyes and hand mimicking
ABBA: Our Last Video Ever 2004 ABBA: Our Last Video Ever (TV short)-leggins 8-)
London Voodoo-well,only few corporate meetings,but all in all,not for me

Tic Tac -yes, italinroot rest.owner,piss and beer scene 8-)
Sånt är livet -young suit role

---so far what the net provided, would like to see Detaljer, or what other pieces can y recomm? Thanks for tips 8-)


But someday, as i love theatre,hope to see him on stage, heard the rumors about staging or tv about Olof Palme (even the resemblance w. certain photos),Jane Eyre was latest (btw,funny pre-xmas cloakroom video 8-),but highlights were Personkrets 3:1 and Se questo e homo (know i got both loosely written) , as i understand, hope he´ll continue in some theatre, despite the roles from the world fame now, he can choose whtevr

so anyway, i´m not obssesed with him, maybe a little, but in wider perspective,i fell in love with northern cinema,european in general,coproductions and miscellaneous

wow you have seen much of his films!

I'll do my list:
Millenium - fantastic of course :)
Anglavakt (english title: among us) is good, but cheesy. Micke looks very handsome in it. the movie has been uploaded onto youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NEA64reTmw
Kvinden der drømte om en mand (english title: the woman that dreamed about a man): Micke was more handsome than the man his wife has an affair with! she was an idiot!
The Black Pimpernel - good movie about swedish ambassador Harald Edelstam who saved many lives. kinda silly that the Swedes were talking to each other in english, why would we do that? hahaha
Underbara älskade (english title: suddenly) - such a sweet, sad story, Micke shows he is a good actor
Naboer - i have seen parts of and yeah Micke plays a bisexual man haha
Så som i himmelen (english title: as it is in heaven) - Micke was so adorable in this and once again fantastic actor. this film was academy award nominated, good film.
dag och natt (english: day and night) - very strong film. micke is not in it for much maybe 10-15 minutes but you will understand why if you watch the movie (no he does not die lol) i always laugh when he opens the box hahaha
ABBA last video: haha, love ABBA :D
London Voodoo - such a waste of time, Micke is only in it for 5 mins and the movie is stupid
Grabben i graven bredvid (english title: guy in the grave next door) - i like this story and Micke was a very sexy cute farmer! nice and sweet romantic comedy
uploaded on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWVkm5cvATY&feature=related
Hem ljuva hem (english title: home sweet home) - i cannot believe how young Anastacious Soujlis looks because he is in Underbara älskade only 4 years later (?) looking much older! touching story, think it is also on youtube
tillsammans (together) - SO HANDSOME! so cute when he goes to her door with flowers and tries to get her back


watch detajler, Micke is so so handsome
there is no doubt why he has been voted sexigaste man in sveriges several times now

I too would have loved to see Jane Eyre last year, tickets sold out for that quickly i heard

hahaha Bang Bang Orangutang I have not seen but it does sound crazy, i should really see it because I like both Michael Nyqvist and Mikael Persbrandt

i am excited for Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol they are currently filming in Dubai and Micke has a long fight with Cruise that will be in wires. they are filming on the side of the tallest building in the world which is in Dubai!!
i fear that Micke is being typecast but in an interview he has said that he does not care so maybe im thinking he must have other potential films where he is not a villain. i hope so because i would love to see him in a drama, romance or thriller(not as the bad guy lol) because he is so good at it
there has been one picture taken from the set of Mission Impossible and Micke is in a suit looking like the bad guy lol he still looks good looking of course but not like he did in Anglavakt, Millenium etc

reply

he was so so gorgeous in that!
