Lili was always inside Einar. Einar said that he thinks Lili's thoughts and dreams Lili's dreams. Einar suppressed Lili within him. Einar doing feminine things awakened Lili more and more everyday. He didn't turn into a woman, she just finally accepted herself.
HE never turned into a woman. You can't TURN into a woman. He is a he and remained a he and tried to act and look like one. And the woman he supposedly loved and promised to care for had her heart broken in the meantime. HE tried to go the final step and took it too far into surgery and died because of it. Why can't people be happy with themselves? Fine. Look like a woman. You're not one. You have obligations and duties to your wife and she was more selfless than he ever was in their marriage.
Some men like dresses and more feminine things, it's because of gender roles that that's not socially accepted, and thus, men think they need to transition. But that doesn't make them women.
But for real though, you can really see how happy Einar is when Ulla calls him "Lilli", his eyes are literally beaming. Like how do you get that much happiness to show through just your eyes alone? *clap clap* Eddie Redmayne is such a good actor.
@@geegee637 Sooo...Alright i get it its your opinion that heis ugly (which i disagree with it.) But like its rude to say it like that "He is ugly as both" u know...But i respect that u think that he is ugly but like dude just look at him xD He is kyot (for me ^////^)
@@gxnervtixn2660 Personally, I agree with Gee Gee. I think he was rather unappealing both as a man and a woman. I suppose beauty IS in the eye of the beholder.
After reading up about the real story it’s actually much much sadder and not a happy ending for gerda lily passed from a womb operation but gerda spiralled into depression after lily died gerda is the epitome of true love and I am sad lily couldn’t love her back because Mân or woman gerda was there for her thorough everything even when she was being hurt. Love this movie, but wish they were more faithful with the ending. And not so abrupt
I agree so much. Lilli was brave, yes. (And please don't kill me but-) I think she was a little selfish and unfair to Gerda. She only thought about her own happiness. And well, has she never thought, What about Gerda?
maria ordoñez I don’t know why we have to apologise for our opinions anymore. Just because we’re saying that Lili is selfish, doesn’t translate homophobia. Sometimes you just don’t like a person for the things they do, not for what they are.
See how the multiple closeup shots of Eddie Redmayne emphasize the emotional transition that he is having in this scene. Such a wonderful cinematographic choice.
People said nothing about him portraying a woman but beople freaked out when Scarlet was going to play a transgender. Is their job they are actors and actresses.
People did had an issue with him playing a trans character. This movie came out three or four years ago. That may not seem like a lot of time but for trans rights a lot of things change. And I feel the only issue is that the trans community have more of a voice compared to when this movie first came out. Another thing that is important is that throughout most of the movie Lili was pre op. So having a cisgender male wasnt that big of a deal since the real lili never took estrogen or have surgery until the end and that was only to remove her genetalia.
Quinn Samuels Same with character Johansson was going to portray. The real person was androgynous and didn’t go on hormones or have top surgery. So all the hate that the movie was getting really wasn’t justified. They’re aren’t many actors that are trans that haven’t transitioned.
Ariana Leras Okay that is true but Johansson looks nothing like this character. The character had a very large built which help their masculine look. Plus I believe its the factor that hollywood have an issue with transpeople playing cisgender roles. But when it comes to trans roles their still being represented by cis gender people. It's the aspect that they feel that they are prevented from doing most work and what little they received goes to cis gender actors. But again this role didn't have it's issue. Even though I love this movie, it should have went to a trans women.
Quinn Samuels You see that’s the unrealistic expectation. There are very few trans woman or men in Hollywood that haven’t transitioned. In this role the actor had to be comfortable being male presenting for the first half of the movie (which may be triggering for dysphoria) and had to look somewhat male. In Johansson’s case no one has cared about body type much in the past and while casting is evolving it’s a bit hypocritical. Trans actors should play trans characters but it’s difficult in cases when the character isn’t transitioned. Take the Broadway show Hedwig and The Angry Inch. The character is usually played by a male even though the character identifies as female, but since she hasn’t transitioned it would be nearly impossible to find an actress that fit the bill.
1:55-2:22 *Is this such a significant moment in the movie because it’s a progressive moment where he notices he likes the dress and feels more comfortable if dressed like a woman*
The thing is I know that feeling. And getting caught up in it. Getting scared when someone walks in the room. Eddie did a fantastic job portraying that feeling and I will always stand by loving this movie
Now I don’t know what to think of Eddie...except for that he is an outstanding actor! He has been part of the wizarding world, became a girl because he needed to, and also won an Oscar for best actor! Great job, Eddie! Your family’s proud!
It wasn't just when he held the dress and wore those stockings and shoes that really set his transformation in certain; it was when she was finally given a name.
He did a really great job acting all those soft feminine expressions, body language and specially the blushing. My god, he blushed so cute in this movie 😅😍 I've never seen a girl blush like that before.... 💕
As a MtF going through gender reassignment and identifying as female for along as I can remember. One thing has always stood out in my mind when I first dressed correctly. Eddies eyes speak volumes of the affirmation you feel at that sudden realisation moment. Eddie captures that perfectly. Made me cry.
As a trans person I know how good it feels to finally be accepted and doing the first steps of transitioning is so exciting and so scary at the same time and seeing this makes me cry so much smhh💖
Everyone quick to comment how brave and strong Einar is but what about Greta? No one really talks about the fact that Einar shattered his wife's heart and cheated on her. He broke vows and lied all because he thought he was a woman and what did it get him? (spoiler) it cost him his life. She was the one who had to deal with all that. Seriously people need to love themselves more and stop hurting others because of their own selfish desires.
This captures trans dysphoria so well. It's such a strange and upsetting feeling. I'm amazed by Eddie's acting as well and the sensitivity of the directing cinematography.
He doesn't become a woman just because he wore a woman dress. Didn't you even google Lili Elbe's life? It takes seconds to understand why. He was already born with female ovaries, so technically (s)he was woman.
As what I observed throughout the movie, she want to be like her husband which she want to surpass her talent as him. Then it happens to be complicated when she want to be more perfectionist - which an unfinished painting on the legs that she wanted her husband to put the dress with stockings on. That lead to an unexpected transformation of her husband - which she knows it was her fault to cause this and accept it even he changed and love him while she can.
Just something as simple as that isn't the only reason. No one changes their sexuality solely through one thing. Lilli surpresseed the fact for years that she felt she was a woman. You shouldn't blame the wife, poor girl ended up broke after her wife's surgery and death, leaving her to die impoverished as well. She supported Lilli even though Lilli cheated on her with a man in the movie, supported her even when she was undeciding and afraid of herself. She's selfless. The most tragic type of selfless there is.
He didn't transformed , i don't know about real story but there is one thing for sure . He was a transgender different from sexuality and gender . He didn't transformed , lily was always there but putting that dress and on just made him realise his real self or i should say her real self .
My favorite scene in the movie is the one where Einar/Lili was at the brothel emulating the striptease artist instead of getting the sexual pleasure. It was the best.
This really breaks my heart. Before I started buying frilly clothes I was depressed. jeans and t shirts don’t give me the happiness dresses and heels do.
LILI ELBE (a sonnet dedicated to a most courageous woman, Lili Elbe) It’s where the bogs are in THE DANISH GIRL. It is Vejle where Einar dropped his roots. Black branches that are Sunday school girl’s curl. Five trees, to be exact, that bore no fruits. But then Lili was born, fruits galore, ripe. Einar was gone, to the bogs I suppose, maybe always to be in him, his gripe. It was Lili all along, frilly clothes. I love people who display bravery in the face of adversity, doomed fall. They rise above the bogs to seek savory white-laced light from Heaven’s Gate; peaceful gall. Live on Lili; God has blessed your soft heart. Blessed mine, too, because of you; out-loud art.
2:33 I absolutely ADORE this gesture he makes.
Anakarina so do i😂😅😍
THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE
Ana me too omgggggg
So adorable 😍😍😍
Adorable bab.
I kinda fell in live with the actor, now i have to go and watch every movie he made.
Even Jupiter's ascending?
Exactly! I saw him portraying Newt Scamander and saw this movie after that one. He is so talented!
He made?
fantastic beast !
Same
Eddie redmayne is an amazing actor, he did this so well, made me cry
Your Profile pic...😢
He’s very emphatic for sure
Lili was always inside Einar. Einar said that he thinks Lili's thoughts and dreams Lili's dreams. Einar suppressed Lili within him. Einar doing feminine things awakened Lili more and more everyday. He didn't turn into a woman, she just finally accepted herself.
Abbey Cruz I just love this scene, the way he’s trembling and shaking as she realizes something... It’s beautiful...
HE never turned into a woman. You can't TURN into a woman. He is a he and remained a he and tried to act and look like one. And the woman he supposedly loved and promised to care for had her heart broken in the meantime. HE tried to go the final step and took it too far into surgery and died because of it.

Beautiful comment on what is a truly beautiful moment in the film. That last comment won't take anything away from it.
Some men like dresses and more feminine things, it's because of gender roles that that's not socially accepted, and thus, men think they need to transition. But that doesn't make them women.
agree!!
Lets just face it ladies... eddie is a prettier girl then any of us
And that's not fair!
That's not fair
Nah, Alicia is
So true
Touche
But for real though, you can really see how happy Einar is when Ulla calls him "Lilli", his eyes are literally beaming. Like how do you get that much happiness to show through just your eyes alone? *clap clap* Eddie Redmayne is such a good actor.
1:32 he really loved that feeling of submission Gerda gave him. God hes an amazing actor. chills. whole scene gave me chills
How can he be a handsome man AND a pretty woman. Waw
Ikr?!? ;O
He's ugly as both.. But good actor

I read that both Lily and gerda were both homosexuals, (lesbians) so they still loved each other even after Lily did her surgery
@@0RaikaAce0 I really hope that's a true fact, cause they have a beautiful relationship portrayed in the movie
Yes, after Lili started to identify well, as herself, Gerda identified as a lesbian. Im not quite sure of Lili’s orientation though
maria ordoñez I don’t know why we have to apologise for our opinions anymore. Just because we’re saying that Lili is selfish, doesn’t translate homophobia. Sometimes you just don’t like a person for the things they do, not for what they are.
Every gesture, every movement, every breathe and every flicker in his eyes just brings the character to life.
They are all so talented and beautiful.
2:42 THAT SMILE COULD KILL ME!!!!!
This was, by far, Mr. Redmayne's most strong and heartbreaking performance of his career.
See how the multiple closeup shots of Eddie Redmayne emphasize the emotional transition that he is having in this scene. Such a wonderful cinematographic choice.
His smile is so beautiful.
You can see his soul in every wrinkles on his face.
Yeah
2:33 even the way Edinar moved before he transitioned was so feminine and graceful he truly was always Lili

Diana Nicolás wow, that's a good point lol... never realized that

It’s amazing how passionate he can be while acting😭❤️, and the way he smiles is adorable
WHY IS EDDIE REDMAYNE SOOOOOOO ADORABLE IN THIS SCENE!!!!!!!!
2:05 the way he tried so hard to suppress it

Emma Staub p
And I thought society only tells us what’s female what’s not. Where’s the feeling from now?
He acts so well that you can really feel that he is smiling from his heart like a lady. This is amazing acting
The thing is I know that feeling. And getting caught up in it. Getting scared when someone walks in the room. Eddie did a fantastic job portraying that feeling and I will always stand by loving this movie
This part just brings me to tears every time. He plays Lily so well, that you can feel the emotions yourself. So vulnerable. A truly amazing scene.
i love the production value of this movie...everything is so beautiful to look at
Now I don’t know what to think of Eddie...except for that he is an outstanding actor! He has been part of the wizarding world, became a girl because he needed to, and also won an Oscar for best actor! Great job, Eddie! Your family’s proud!
Amazing how many people have their existential breakdowns while everyone is watching.
It wasn't just when he held the dress and wore those stockings and shoes that really set his transformation in certain; it was when she was finally given a name.
Eddie is such an amazing actor jesus
For real😭
The dress is so gorgeous
This is the woman married to Michael Fassbender...good GOD how beautiful will the children be??
Like angels
i cannot wait until they have a family!
He did a really great job acting all those soft feminine expressions, body language and specially the blushing. My god, he blushed so cute in this movie 😅😍 I've never seen a girl blush like that before.... 💕
Oh dear god...here is this wonderful story about a person finding their true self, and who do I suddenly notice in the doorway?
Amber Turd. Great.
Hahaha yeah she is going to stick out like a sore thumb now.
I can't imagine her wife's pain. The man she loved disappeared.
Eddie deserved a second oscar. This actor is so brilliant and natural. He does not act, he is what he acts.
2:42 he loved his hidden self,but looks so nervous
What an amazing actor he was... I just admire him...
This scene is amazing.. eddy’s acting says it all
The dog was trying to stop him.
Eddie's act is so natural...he is the best actor i have ever seen
What an actor he are ... It's an amazing acting 🙏❤️❤️
This movie was one big asmr actually.. loved the audio and evrything
Yes!!!!
Classic "I hope this doesn't awaken anything in me"
bruh Eddie's shy smile is so pretty 😭
Academy Award Winner Alicia Vikander, Congats on this movie.
I like how hesitant he is at first and then embraces it.
Sorry currently sobbing because of how perfect Eddie played this part
The cinematography is so good
His eyes are so beautiful.. I envy his wife no joke. Such an amazing man.
Eddie got scared by Amber's entrance obviously.we Know why
Why?
Because Lili is BY FAR a more beautiful and emotional woman than Amber.
@@Arthur2005-j9y Amber is not a good person
Alicia is beautiful.
As a man he is gorgeously handsome. As a woman he/she is gorgeously beautiful. I must say, God took his time crafting a beauty like him.
alicia&eddy acting is so slayinnn' in this movie
This movie brings me memories because I would watch this when I was still in school, it brings me the memories of being in high school

Eddies eyes speak volumes of the affirmation you feel at that sudden realisation moment. Eddie captures that perfectly. Made me cry.
😬😔
So powerful I can't even describe it
U can't control your tears... After watching this Masterpiece
2:22 anddd...there she is ruining the scene :')
I love ❤️ their British accent
Lilli looked so happy! I have got to watch this movie
As a trans person I know how good it feels to finally be accepted and doing the first steps of transitioning is so exciting and so scary at the same time and seeing this makes me cry so much smhh💖

I haven't seen this movie yet, but I'm 100% sure it is about true love.
Lili is beautiful the way she is❤❤❤❤❤
this is such a beautiful movie
What a beautiful and delicate scene !
2:22 No! No not her! 😱
Im so glad they chose eddy
pro-tip: don't dress your husband as a woman, even for money.
Why?
He doesn't become a woman just because he wore a woman dress. Didn't you even google Lili Elbe's life? It takes seconds to understand why. He was already born with female ovaries, so technically (s)he was woman.
Smh your comment gave me cyber tumor 👋
Arman Akşit no,he was transgender
Tell that to Jenna Newan Tatum
Amber Heard kinda ruins this beautiful film for me now. I wish they could just edit her out somehow
Why?
How is he so beautiful?!!! Both male and female??!!! He is the most beautiful human being !
I so know what he feels. I felt it too, much younger than him, and then slowly but surely we stopped becoming him.
Now that's just not fair!
How can someone be so damn beautiful both genders?!
This was my first ever movie of Eddie and I actually thought he was a trans actor. His feminine performance was spectacular! Not to mention his lips.
this is a horror movie with a happy ending
As what I observed throughout the movie, she want to be like her husband which she want to surpass her talent as him. Then it happens to be complicated when she want to be more perfectionist - which an unfinished painting on the legs that she wanted her husband to put the dress with stockings on. That lead to an unexpected transformation of her husband - which she knows it was her fault to cause this and accept it even he changed and love him while she can.
So in other words, Gerda caused her own heartbreak.
Just something as simple as that isn't the only reason. No one changes their sexuality solely through one thing. Lilli surpresseed the fact for years that she felt she was a woman. You shouldn't blame the wife, poor girl ended up broke after her wife's surgery and death, leaving her to die impoverished as well.

When I saw the trailer, I thought Eddie was Cate Blanchett, at first. Superb acting
He is so sweet omg
This movie helped me find out I was Genderfluid thank you Eddie 😍
2:24 that laugh tho
but am i the only one who thought that he fell for Ulla? I SERIOUSLY THOUGHT HE FELL FOR ULLA BY SEEING THE WAY HE TRAILS HIS FINGERS ON HER GOWN
Oh my frog... Newt Scamander has worn a dress. Best. Hufflepuff. Ever.
one of the best movies
Was the dog barking meant to be a jump scare ? Cause I jumped lol
i love eddie so much
Sees Eddie redmayne” FANDOM INTENSIFIES” XD I KNOW WHERE HE LIVES
How?!?
God this is so pretty
This really breaks my heart. Before I started buying frilly clothes I was depressed. jeans and t shirts don’t give me the happiness dresses and heels do.
favorite actor
Great movie
Man i see eddie as newt i can't unseen it
Now doesn't he look so beautiful.
They cut out the part where Amber heard beats him senseless and tries to explain a difference between punching and hitting
such a beautiful movie.
Seriously, Alicia Vikander is a beautiful woman.
LILI ELBE
(a sonnet dedicated to a most courageous woman, Lili Elbe)
It’s where the bogs are in THE DANISH GIRL.
It is Vejle where Einar dropped his roots.
Black branches that are Sunday school girl’s curl.
Five trees, to be exact, that bore no fruits.
But then Lili was born, fruits galore, ripe.
Einar was gone, to the bogs I suppose,
maybe always to be in him, his gripe.
It was Lili all along, frilly clothes.
I love people who display bravery
in the face of adversity, doomed fall.
They rise above the bogs to seek savory
white-laced light from Heaven’s Gate; peaceful gall.
Live on Lili; God has blessed your soft heart.
Blessed mine, too, because of you; out-loud art.
I don’t know a person more cute then him
