In 2010’s “The Secrets we Keep”, Noomi Rapace – with a cigarette glued to her hand – plays a persecuted Romani with a traumatizing past, living an All-American life as a 1950’s housewife, when she suddenly sees the man she believes killed her sister during World War II. She kidnaps him, hides him in the family basement and tries to get a confession out of him. All the while, she cannot even convince her husband that two strangers who met at the end of the world end up in the same little town in America. “The Secrets We Keep” plays out like a four-person-play in a claustrophobic basement, but it can’t keep the pace and suspense the story needs. Much like last week’s “Angel of Mine”, the story’s premise allows only two ways to end, so there’s not much of a surprise to its climax. Still, it’s a good watch, so make sure to look out for it on your streaming device. Screencaptures from the Blu-Ray have been added to the photo gallery. Next Sunday will bring us yet another basement story with Tommy Wirkola’s “The Trip”.

On Monday, Noomi was among the many prominent guests to grace the red carpet of the 2021 Fashion Awards in London. Lots of pictures from the event have been added to the photo gallery.

This Sunday, we cover “Angel of Mine”, a 2019 release and a remake of a French film with Noomi Rapace playing a woman who’s certain that a girl from the neighborhood is her own daughter, which she lost days after giving birth in a hospital fire. Is she right or is she losing her mind? In this thriller-by-the-numbers, the answer is as clear as it is predictable. While its watchable, it ticks every box of the “maternal instincts” thriller along the way. You can’t blame its director or the actors, because there isn’t a much better film within this story. It’s an OK watch for a Sunday afternoon, but for a decent film evening I’d recommend any of those films that inspired “Angel of Mine”. Next week: The Secrets We Keep.

I’m happy to introduce a new site special that will allow me to keep up with screencaptures from Noomi’s films that haven’t been added in the last couple of years. While there are a couple of films to wrap up, I’ve decided to do it weekly with one update posted every Sunday from now on until Christmas (which will have a great surprise for all visitors) Let’s start with the first in line – 2019’s “Stockholm” about the bank robbery that gave birth to the “Stockholm Syndrome”. The Canadian film, starring Ethan Hawke, Noomi Rapace and Mark Strong, was shelfed for more than two years after being theatrically released in the US and the UK (titled “The Captor”, for whatever reason). “Stockholm” is not a documentary and a bit too focused on the absurdity of the story, in my opinion, but it’s still worth a watch, especially for Noomi’s performance. High quality screencaptures from the Blu-Ray can be now found in the photo gallery. Next week: Angel of Mine.

A big batch of additional production stills from “Lamb” have been added to the photo gallery, alongside a couple of new on-set pictures and international posters. I have been keeping my fingers crossed for today’s announcement of the European Film Award nominations, but besides a well deserved nomination for the best film by a first-time director, “Lamb” didn’t make the cut in any other categories. It would have been a fitting honor for Noomi to be recognized 10 years after her nomination for “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo”. Anyway, have a look at the new pictures below.

With all recent films being added to the photo gallery, I went through my archives to see which production stills were missing – and there have been a lot. So enjoy lots of additional updates on Noomi’s film, television and theatre working, starting as early as 2004’s stage production of “Den älskade” all the way through the “Millennium” trilogy, “Child 44” and “Unlocked” to the most recent “The Trip”. For a complete list of updates, have a look at the previews below.

The international promotion tour for “Lamb” continues with an appearance at the 65th BFI London Film Festival, where Noomi and director Valdimar Jóhannsson were on hand to promote the film. Pictures from the premiere have been added to the photo gallery.

Noomi Rapace was a vision in white at yesterday’s screening of “Lamb” at the Sitges Film Festival in Spain, taking place only a day after the screening of “The Trip”. Pictures from the premiere have been added to the photo gallery.

Noomi Rapace is busy with a dual promotional tour for both “Lamb” and “The Trip”. The latter was screened today at the 2021 Sitges Film Festival and Spain – and Noomi and director Valdimar Jóhannsson were on hand to promote the dark comedy, which premiered in Swedish cinemas this June. Pictures from the press conference have been added to the photo gallery. “The Trip” will be released in the US, UK and other territories on October 15 on Netflix. Edit: More pitures from the evening’s gala screening of the film have been added as well.

Hello, everyone! As you know, Noomi is playing Harriet Baumann in the season two of Prime Video’s Jack Ryan. Our gallery has been updated with many screencaptures and production stills.
