Den norsk-rumenske filmen FJORD vant nettopp Gullpalmen i Cannes! Regissør Cristian Mungiu tok dermed hjem sin andre Gullpalme, mens norske co-produsenter, skuespillere og filmarbeidere kan feire en historisk norsk Gullpalme!

@SundanceSatter @akstanwyck In my podcast interview with Joachim Trier back here in Norway (at @montages magazine’s program) we spoke at length in October about his admiration of PTA, and also Coogler and Zhao (both of whom he met at Sundance Labs), and his debut "Reprise" also screened at Sundance. 🙌🏻🇳🇴

Here's your first look at BUTTERFLY with Renate Reinsve in her first new role after SENTIMENTAL VALUE. BUTTERFLY is the new film by director Itonje Søimer Guttormsen – a great talent and Norwegian cinema’s best kept secret. World premiere at Rotterdam IFFR —first image revealed:

A must-read ––> A truly in-depth exploration of SENTIMENTAL VALUE – a film packed with characters, time planes, strands back into history, complex flashbacks, and a vast number of contrasts, intertwinings, echoes and motifs: https://t.co/Vud9zX30yx #sentimentalvalue #analysis

'Sentimental Value' is the Ultimate Thanksgiving Movie https://t.co/QAbXWtXkqk

BONUS: Like this incredible discovery, that when you know the same house was used as location by Trier in "Oslo, August 31st" (2011) as well… realizing that Sødtholt has discovered a picture hanging on the wall, at the same spot, in both films… but different time periods… 😵

[Karsten Meinich @KarstenM]

1/ Just read Dag Sødtholt’s brilliant analysis of Joachim Trier’s "Sentimental Value" on @Montages — it revealed layers of the film I hadn’t noticed before. The detailed essay traces subtle patterns in the film’s motifs and themes that linger long after watching. [🔗below.]

[Karsten Meinich @KarstenM]

3/ It’s the kind of analytical, curious film criticism that enhances a work of cinema instead of just explaining it. If "Sentimental Value" stayed with you, I think this essay will too. Thoughtful, precise, detailed and meticulously written. 🔗Recommended: https://t.co/Vud9zX30yx

🎧 NY PODKAST: I denne eksklusive episoden møter vi Joachim Trier til en lang og detaljert samtale om AFFEKSJONSVERDI, med fokus på filmens tematikk, hans arbeid med visuell form og Triers utvikling som regissør etter seks spillefilmer over to tiår: https://t.co/3V468jLIV0

@latimesent This review states an error twice: actress Renate Reinsve was in fact not nominated for an Oscar for "The Worst Person in the World". She won the Cannes prize for Best Actress, but did not earn an Oscar nom.

So if she’s nominated for "Sentimental Value", it would be her first.

[Karsten Meinich @KarstenM]

The whole crew of Joachim Trier's SENTIMENTAL VALUE is on the red carpet, entering the awards ceremony. If the film wins the Palme d'Or it'll be the first for a Norwegian feature film. (Short film SNIFFER won the Palme d'Or in 2006) Trivia: Maria Ekerhovd is the producer of both!

Some of the films I hear will get major prizes at Cannes tonight:

Edited season 1 of this series, and really happy to see that The New York Times has found it as Netflix now releases all seasons. —>

The Norwegian dramedy “Pernille,” about a decidedly ordinary woman who works in child welfare, is in all the good ways a lot like Pamela Adlon’s FX dramedy “Better Things,” our critic writes. https://t.co/6Pf0kPYF9t

Indieperle tilbake fra glemselen – River Phoenix og Lili Taylor briljerer i Nancy Savocas DOGFIGHT (1991): «River Phoenix' rolle i DOGFIGHT trekkes sjelden frem, men er en av hans beste,» skriver @KarstenM i dag: https://t.co/ZPMlXB7fM7 DOGFIGHT vises på Cinematekene denne uken.
