Sentimental Value

- Watched Affeksjonsverdi in Oslo - 🪞 The film felt like a mirror, reminding me of my own situation again and again. It reminded me why I’m here. Right, I should be making my film. I need to focus on what I need to do. It made me think about what I’ve done so far, and what I need to do now. Gustav to Nora: “Now you have to do a story about yourself. Not some old, outdated story, the kind only elderly people come to see.” That’s what I wanted to do. Not spending time focusing on stories about others anymore, but doing a story about myself and focusing on myself. The actor in my film should be you. - liked the Spartacus Love Theme music - liked the last scene - For me, it was more about acting, screenwriting, and filmmaking. But for one of my friends, it was more about the relationship between father and daughter. It brought up memories of her own relationship with her father, and it was deeply emotional for her. She cried throughout the film and after it ended, while we were walking home. Contemporary Scandinavian Film, University of Oslo, Spring 26
