Is there any role Eddie Redmayne can't play exceptionally well? What a marvelous film about identity, unconditional love, and courage. This is one of the best films I've seen about how it feels to be transgender in a world that isn't ready, doesn't understand, and is afraid. It is also remarkable at showing what love, commitment, and being a true ally looks like. It is far from easy to support someone no one else will. Alicia Vikander deserved her award, hands down.
