The Danish Girl

In 1920s Copenhagen, husband-and-wife painters Einar and Gerda Wegener (Eddie Redmayne, Alicia Vikander) knew a loving Bohemian existence. Her whimsical request to have him sub for a female model, however, would slowly draw him into uncertainty about his sexual identity...and her into conflict as she tried to render understanding and support. Tom Hooper's lushly rendered, factually inspired opus also stars Amber Heard, Ben Whishaw, Matthias Schoenaerts. 120 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; featurette.
