Joachim Trier And Renate Reinsve On ‘Sentimental Value’, 15 Years And Three Films: “I’m So Proud That We Keep Working Together”

Key Highlights

• The one constant in all their lives is the historical family home, a key character, that they once all shared until Gustav abandoned them.
• Nora and her surviving parent communicate as if strangers; she’s unforgiving and rejects Gustav’s entreaties to star in his deeply personal comeback picture which he’s written as a gift to her.
• Instead, he persuades Hollywood name Rachel Kemp, played by Elle Fanning, to replace his daughter.
• Admiring of Reinsve’s “energy, playfulness and charisma,” Sentimental Value is the second lead role that Trier has created for her; their last picture, The Worst Person in the World won a Best Actress prize for Reinsve at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival.
• “I feel like the luckiest actor to get to do this with Joachim,” Reinsve says.
