Episode 13 - The Quiet Devastation of Sentimental Value | Fork Rating

In this episode of Movies I Give a Fork About, AJ dives into one of this year’s most emotionally resonant Oscar contenders — Sentimental Value, the Norwegian drama that has earned nine  Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director, best Adapted Screenplay, best actress in a lead role, and best actor in a supporting role.AJ explores why the writer-director combination behind the film gives the story such remarkable cohesion, allowing the emotional themes of memory, regret, and family legacy to unfold with quiet precision.The episode also highlights the extraordinary performance of Stellan Skarsgård, whose Best Supporting Actor–nominated role delivers a deeply nuanced portrayal of a man haunted by the consequences of his past.With additional acting nominations for Renate Reinsve, Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas and Elle Fanning, Sentimental Value demonstrates how powerful restrained performances can be when a film trusts its audience to sit with complex emotions rather than forcing them.A J breaks down the performances, the storytelling, and why this haunting Norwegian film lingers long after the credits roll.How many forks does Sentimental Value earn? Tune in to find out🍴 Movies I Give a Fork About  Movies don’t get stars — they get forks.Hosted by AJ Jones, this podcast cuts through hype, marketing, and awards buzz to answer one simple question:Is this movie actually worth your time?🎧 Listen on Spotify & Apple Podcasts  📸 Follow on Instagram: @moviesigiveaforkabout  🌐 Podcast site: giveaforkmovies.comNew episodes drop when a movie earns a fork.
