A Behind The Scenes Look At "Sentimental Value"

"Sentimental Value" is a drama film directed by Joachim Trier, who co-wrote it with Eskil Vogt, following their critically acclaimed, Oscar-nominated hit "The Worst Person In The World." Their latest follows sisters Nora (Renate Reinsve) and Agnes (Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas) as they reunite with their estranged father, Gustav (Stellan Skarsgård), a film director looking to make a film with American star Rachel Kemp (Elle Fanning). The film premiered in the main competition of the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, where it received widespread critical acclaim and won the Grand Prix. At the 83rd Golden Globe Awards, it was nominated for Best Motion Picture – Drama, and won Best Supporting Actor for Skarsgård. Joachim Trier, Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas, and film editor Olivier Bugge Couté were all kind enough to spend some time speaking with Next Best Picture Owner & Editor In Chief Matt Neglia, while Ema Sasic got the chance to speak with Renate Reinsve, Elle Fanning, Eskil Vogt, and casting director Yngvill Kolset Haga, and Giovanni Lago had the opportunity to speak with Stellan Skarsgård. You can listen to all of the interviews below. Please be sure to check out the film, now playing in select theaters from NEON. The film is up for your consideration for the 98th Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Director (Trier), Best Actress (Reinsve), Best Supporting Actor (Skarsgård), Best Supporting Actress (Fanning and Lilleaas), Best Original Screenplay, Best Film Editing, and Best International Feature Film. Thank you, and enjoy!
