Nominated for two Oscars including Best Original Screenplay. A modern dramedy about the quest for love and meaning in contemporary Oslo. It chronicles four years for Julie, a young woman who navigates the troubled waters of her love life and struggles to find her career path, leading her to take a realistic look at who she really is.
“The Worst Person in the World is the best film of the year so far. Joachim Trier’s new drama is hysterically funny, deeply moving and captures the messiness and uncertainty of modern life better than almost anything that’s come before it.” — Radhika Seth, Vogue
“The story quietly washes over you until you realize you’re drowning in waves of acute emotions.” — Angelica Jade Bastién , New York Magazine
“Ms. Reinsve is magnificent in the role, her radiant face a registry of unsettled feelings. It’s a great performance by any measure, and finds its complement in Anders Danielsen Lie’s beautifully nuanced portrayal of Aksel.” — Joe Morgenstern , Wall Street Journal
