’Breaking Bad’s Bryan Cranston Hosts ‘Sentimental Value’ Love-In For Stellan Skarsgård & Joachim Trier

Joachim Trier’s Norwegian film won five top European Film Awards, highlighting its artistic acclaim and boosting its Oscar season prospects, the Academy said.

  • On January 17, Joachim Trier's Sentimental Value swept the 38th European Film Awards in Berlin, winning best film, director, both acting honors, screenplay and score.
  • By shifting the event to January, the European Film Academy sought greater awards-season influence by boosting buzz for its favored film Sentimental Value ahead of Oscar nominations.
  • Joachim Trier's film uses archival formats and shifting styles to trace estranged father Gustav Borg and daughter Nora, evoking cinema history with 16 mm and period techniques.
  • Winning the EFA's top prizes increases Trier's and Sentimental Value's awards momentum, making it an Oscar frontrunner with likely nominations in best international feature and acting categories.
  • Jafar Panahi called for action over Iran's crackdown, reading a statement condemning `the unprecedented massacre` with at least 3,000 protesters believed killed and 18,000 arrested, while Oliver Laxe's Sirat won five craft awards.
