Sentimental Value
This is the best of 2025
With 7.8 million dollars Joachim Trier made a transverse work where relationships are not always healed, people like Gustav think that the wounds will pass, but also with his inner pain he understands his daughter, seeing her reflected as her mother, where Nora and her father have wounds and shared bonds, where family patterns are repeated, where the pain is generational simplified with the house where maybe it is not broken noticeably, but it does does it inside. This prints that many relationships are past cycles and that the patterns are repeated without us wanting to or realizing it.
And maybe ironically Nora is like Gustav and maybe he knows it but even as he is not understood she will not be able to understand her either.
It has beautiful dialogues and performances worthy of any festival, but what matters here is that it has that representation of a bond that is difficult to find in the cinema today.
