One of most underrated actresses in the world


Trine Dyrholm has to be female Mads Mikkelssen, although unlike him she didn't seem to step outside her native Denmark and seems to have stayed there with the odd film here or there filmed outside Denmark. But if you look at her C.V, it's just full of great films imo and performances.

Festen (1998)- Her breakthrough role
In China They Eat Dogs (1999)
In Your Hands (2004)

2008 is where her best run kicks in

Troubled Water (2008)-her greatest performance imo
Little Soldier (2008)
In A Better World (2010)
A Royal Affair (2012)
Love Is All You Need (2012)
Who Am I (2014)
The Commune (2016)
The Legacy (TV Series)
Nico, 1988 (2017)
Becoming Astrid (2018)

She's a very good actress and deserves more praise then she gets.

I've only seen her in Festen and The Legacy, near two decades apart, but she's great in both.
