Sentimental Value 2025

Sentimental Value (2025) is a Norwegian comedy-drama directed by Joachim Trier that serves as an intimate exploration of family, memory, and the reconciling power of art. The plot follows Nora (Renate Reinsve), an acclaimed stage actress, and her sister Agnes (Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas), who are grieving the loss of their mother when their estranged father, Gustav (Stellan Skarsgård)—a once-celebrated but egotistical film director—re-enters their lives. Gustav returns to their family home in Oslo with plans to shoot a comeback movie about his own mother’s suicide and controversially asks Nora to play the lead role of her grandmother; when she refuses, he casts a young Hollywood starlet, Rachel Kemp (Elle Fanning), igniting a complex storm of jealousy, artistic rivalry, and resurfaced trauma. Critics have lauded the film as a masterpiece, particularly following its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival (where it won the Grand Prix), praising the chemistry between Skarsgård and Reinsve as well as the script's delicate balance of melancholic drama and dry humor. Commercially, the film has seen a specialized limited release, garnering approximately $9.6 million worldwide (with significant earnings from European markets like Norway and France) as of late 2025.As for streaming, the film is currently exclusive to theaters and has not yet been released on digital platforms, though it is distributed in some territories by MUBI and Neon, suggesting a future release on those respective services.
