One It seems to be the happiest in Cannes Renate Reinsve, actor from Norway.
Maybe because when he was at the world’s biggest film festival for the first time in 2021, Reinsve had thought that the visit would also be his last.
“Then I walked the red carpet back and forth in my black dress,” Reinsve recalls.
“Because I thought it would be the last time.”
Was not.
On the contrary, Reinsve’s work as an actor turned to a new position at that time. She became a hot name when she was awarded the best actress in the Cannes competition that year. The film was a Norwegian relationship shoot The Worst Person in the World.
A small one Reinsve has arrived for the meeting of the journalist group on the terrace of the Cannes Festival Palace in a pantsuit, accompanied by a PR assistant. White short-sleeved booties and a trendy cut top attract attention.
Reinsve, who seems happy, says that he is self-critical.
Even his breakthrough role Worst Person in the World – in the film, he seems to still be skeptical.
“I thought the film was good, but not good enough,” says Reinsve.
He doesn’t think he’s good enough, never.
“I thought I ruined the movie.”
The film was, among other things, nominated for an Oscar.
Renate Reinsve played the lead role in the Norwegian film Worst Person in the World, where her spouse was played by Anders Danielsen’s Lie.
Reinsve seems to be the Nordic actor who will next get big roles in international films by the Swedish Alicia Vikanderin and Danish Mads Mikkelsenin in the footsteps.

Presently A horror movie is playing in Finnish cinemas How the dead are treated, in which Reinsve plays a central role. In June, the entertainment giant Apple will premiere an American crime series Presumed Innocentin which Reinsve acts Jake Gyllenhaal alongside.

Reinvest says that acting is like going into psychosis. It means that for an actor, the body is a whole organism. There is a feeling, there is a reaction, there is a thought.

The profession of an actor is Armandin an essential element in the story, because pre-expectations related to acting are mixed with the story.
