Tim Burton's Alice


Alice Kingsley by Mary Ellen Mark

I just started watching In Treatment, the HBO series about psychotherapy. The acting is amazing, the storylines while melodramatic, also feel like a puzzle. Not only do you want to know what is going on in these characters' lives, but the motivations behind their emotions and actions are at times mysterious & surprising. One of the superb actors on the show is Mia Wasikowska an Australian actress, playing a too mature for her age teenager, injured in an accident that undermines her potentially Olympic gymnastics career. Sometimes you forget you are watching actors - it feels to natural and too raw at times. So when I saw that she was going to play Alice, I got really excited. Plus I like the photo.
