 July 29, 2008 - A few recent Gallery additions
Today we added the photos we promised in the last update, from both the "MAMMA MIA!" premiere in Stockholm and the Swedish Open in Båstad. [ Gallery ]
Sadly, we only have tiny ones this time, but if you happen to come across more pics of these events and/or high quality ones, please contact immediately!!! Contributions in this matter are much appreciated!



 July 17, 2008 - Bad News & Good News

First of all, apologies for the recent lack of updates, but we just returned from our summer vacation in Skåne (Sweden).
Sadly, we must start with a bad Lena news: Her father Stig Olin died at the age of 87 in Stockholm. Read the obituary at WashingtonPost.com for more information.
Our sincere condolences to the family.

On a lighter note: Lena is also enjoying the summer in Sweden. She attended both the premiere of the movie "MAMMA MIA!" in Stockholm and the annual Swedish Open in Båstad. We will provide picture material of both events soon, some can already be found in the Forum.

For now, you can download and watch a clip of Lena, husband Lasse Hallström and their daughter Tora at the "MAMMA MIA!" premiere from our Events Video Archive.

There is other multimedia material to come too, so keep checking back regularly!



 June 5, 2008 - More Desktop Goodies

Added 2 new screensavers to the Screensavers archive and 2 wallpapers to the Wallpapers gallery.
Hope you enjoy, and if you have more additions for the site, please send them in!



 June 2, 2008 - NEW SECTION & A BIG BIRTHDAY
You've always wanted to leave a message to Lena? Then sign our brand-new Fanbook! Have fun!

Aaaaaand... *drumroll* Lasse Hallström is celebrating his 62nd birthday today! Ett stort grattis till dig, Lasse! :-)



 May 29, 2008 - Pimp your desktop...
...and make Lena the "Queen of your Screen"! We added a few new wallpapers to the Wallpapers Gallery (thanks to Maria and Nasu) and a fancy new screensaver to the Screensavers section.
If you want to share YOUR selfmade Lena art with fellow fans, please do not hesitate to send it in!
Also, if you're in the mood for some "moving" fan art, don't miss to stop by at the LENA OnLINe Video Vault now and then.



 May 26, 2008 - Old Goodies
As most of you might remember, Lena hosted one episode of the program "Sommar" on Swedish radio last year. Some time after the official broadcast, a bonus podcast was published with Lena talking about her experiences shooting "The Unbearable Lightness of Being".
You can now download this rather short podcast from our Audio Archive (translation available).
We also updated the translation of the main broadcast with some background information on Lena getting on the show.

Moreover, we added 3 absolutely adorable photos of 4-year-old Lena to the respective Gallery - or click yourself through the following links: One | Two | Three. Enjoy! :)
(Special thanks to Anton for the contributions!)



 May 24, 2008 - Little Video Galore
We found 3 older clips resting in our archives and decided it was about time to share them with you:
(1) a slightly confused Lena at the 2007 Swedish Open in Båstad
(2) a very confused Lena at the "Awake" premiere in New York last year and
(3) a simply adorable Lena at the 55th Emmy Awards 2003 where she was nominated as Best Supporting Actress for ALIAS.
Jump to our Events Video Archive to download the clips.

Also, please take a moment to check out our new partner site Joby-Harold.com, dedicated to the director of "Awake".



 May 21, 2008 - Wanted: Fan Art & Videos
Since we keep getting asked about adding creative submissions by fans to the site, we decided to extend our fan art collections. From now on you can send in all kinds of fan art, be it wallpapers, icons or music videos, whatever you have created to pay tribute to our beloved Lena Olin, and we will put them up here at LENA OnLINe.

While the wallpapers and icons still need some overhauling (new contributions are very welcome!!!), we have set up a channel at YouTube where you can view and share your own little motion pictures starring "The Lena": the LENA OnLINe Video Vault.

Moreover, we're asking all the little artists among you to not hesitate and send in your works featuring Lena and/or her films. We'll be happy to add your submissions to the site.
Just write us an email to fanart[at]lena-olin[dot]com. We're looking forward to hearing from you!



 May 20, 2008 - Gallery Update
On May 6th, the premiere of HBO Documentary Films' "ROMAN POLANSKI: Wanted and Desired" took place in New York City. Among the numerous celebrities were also the ever gorgeous looking Lena and her husband Lasse Hallström.
We added 8 photos of the event to the Public Events 2008 Gallery. (Big thanks to Jen!)

To read more about the event, go to FOX News.

And yes, we've had Gräsänklingar caps before, but not as big, clear and many... So don't miss to check them out! ;-)

If everything goes smoothly, we'll be back after a few hours, though. If you're experiencing any trouble accessing the site, please make sure to empty your browser cache before revisiting us. In some cases, accessibility glitches might continue for the following 24 hrs.
