Renate Reinsve is the most exciting film actress working in European cinema
today — and she has made just a handful of major films to earn that description.
That economy of output relative to the scale of her impact says everything about
the quality of what she chooses and what she brings to it.
She won Best Actress at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival for the role. She
received an Oscar nomination for Best Actress at the 94th Academy Awards.
She was 26 when The Worst Person in the World premiered. She was 30 when
she received her second Oscar nomination, for Sentimental Value — playing
Nora Borg, a stage actress navigating her estranged father’s return, in a
performance that is technically and emotionally distinct from Julie in almost every
register.
