Easily one of the best films of this year.
The camera is always following the characters, it moves with them, it knows when to get closer to them like its a character of its own.
Its story is great and the performance all around the board are stellar.
The narrative structure is confusing at first but it gets gradually better and you get more information every flashback thats an insight into Gustavo childhood, well, everyone's childhood really.
Joachiem trier i've only really discovered like a month ago, I knew his film "the worst person in the world" but i had never seen one of his films until, again a month ago.
I liked Oslo august 31st and I was impressed by his debute reprise even tho I didn't really think it held onto all of its steam in the latter half.
Louder then bombs was mediocre to me. I haven't seen thelma or the worst person in the world but sentimental value feels like the point where im interested in him as a film maker.
Again, the camera moves elegantly and the performances given are great. The score is really good as well.
