'Show me love'

Rebecca Liljeberg's finest hour came in 1998 when she starred in the melodrama of the Swedish director Lukas Moodysson 'Show me love'. Under this, the English name of the film was shown in most countries. But more accurately reflects the essence of his original paintings, the Swedish name - 'Fucking Amal' ( 'Fucking Omolo').

Omolo - is a small Swedish town, home to the main movie characters - teenagers from 14 to 17 years. Their main entertainment hangouts are on the street, or drinking from someone at home. Rebecca Liljeberg played the role of the quiet, modest and very lonely eighth-Agnes. Peers ignore her, but she secretly in love with the beautiful and popular classmate Elin (Alexandra DahlstrцІm). In love with Elin and shy, not very bright guy Johan (Mathias Rust). And what she Eline? She rushes from dissatisfaction in life and dreams of ever leaving this 'fucking Omolo', left for Stockholm. For there, of course, is not so! Learning about love Agnes, she is afraid of these feelings at first, but then realizes that she is not indifferent to this sweet girl.

The film is very thin and delicate, without a drop of vulgarity. And as natural Rebecca! She does not play, it lives in its image. Here is the heroine in the hearts throws her neighbor-invalidke that no longer wants to be friends with her, but she is already struggling in hysterics, calling himself trash. Here she is suffering from uncertainty, waiting for a call from Eline, but, exasperated, she weighed a slap. And how strong is the final scene of the movie, where Elin recognized her reciprocal love. Agnes person becomes enlightened, happy. Now she just does not care about laughter and ridicule classmates. And they go hand in hand, under the surprised looks of others.
