After all, the British actress has experience playing a fearless woman with ice running through her veins when needed — Queen Elizabeth II. “I saw ‘The Crown’ one day and I was like, ‘That’s it, this is all Lisbeth,’ because as crazy as that sounds, there is so much in com- mon with the challenges of playing someone like Lisbeth or Eliz- abeth,” Alvarez told AFP in a recent telephone interview from Rome. Fresh off her Emmy-winning turn as the British monarch on Netflix’s popular drama, Foy is tackling one of the heroines of modern crime fiction — Salander, a Swedish hacker — in “The Girl In The Spider’s Web.” The film, which opens Friday in US theaters, follows Salander as she is hired to hack into a defense program that can control the codes for the world’s nuclear weapons.

  • Standing with the Women of Burma to End Rape and Sexual Violence
    110 high profile women stand with the women of Burma to end rape and sexual violence Standing with the women of Burma to end rape and sexual No. 1 violence July 2010 www.burmacampaign.org.uk 110 high profile women stand with the women of Burma to end rape and sexual violence 110 high profile women, including Dame Judi Dench, Annie Lennox, Jo Brand, Gillian Anderson, Imelda Staunton, Julie Walters and Zoë Wanamaker, are standing with the women of Burma to end rape and sexual violence. In the pledge the high profile women, who also include activists and politicians, have vowed to support: • An investigation into rape and sexual violence by the Burmese military against ethnic women and girls. • An end to impunity for rape and other forms of sexual violence in Burma. • Support for victims. • The inclusion of women at every political level in Burma including the peace negotiations between the Burmese government and the ethnic armed political groups. • Burma’s Rape Law to be in line with international human rights standards to outlaw rape in marriage. Rape and sexual violence by the Burmese army • The use of rape and sexual violence by Burma’s armed forces is ongoing with impunity and reports of rape have increased over the last years. • Although winning a landslide victory in national elections in November 2015, the National League for Democracy (NLD), led by Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi, will not have control over the Burmese army when it takes office in April 2016. Therefore, there is a possibility that army rape will continue even with the new NLD-led government in place.
