Renate Reinsve rejects her famous actor father in Joachim Trier's Sentimental Value trailer
Luckily, this doesn't seem like a project critics want any sort of distance from. Sentimental Value was a huge hit at Cannes, where it won the Grand Prix this spring. Now it has a trailer for the rest of us, which you can watch below:
The beginning of the trailer immediately establishes that once again, we're dealing with complicated people. 'I can't work with him,' Nora tells Rachel Kemp (Elle Fanning), a young American actress who takes on the role Gustav had previously offered his daughter. 'We can't really talk. My father is a very difficult person.'
The film's official synopsis reads as follows: 'Sisters Nora (Reinsve) and Agnes (Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas) reunite with their estranged father, the charismatic Gustav (Skarsgård), a once-renowned director who offers stage actress Nora a role in what he hopes will be his comeback film. When Nora turns it down, she soon discovers he has given her part to an eager young Hollywood star (Fanning). Suddenly, the two sisters must navigate their complicated relationship with their father — and deal with an American star dropped right into the middle of their complex family dynamics.'
Nora may not have wanted to work with her dad, but Reinsve was clearly game to reunite with Trier, whom she previously worked with on the very-much-not-the-worst The Worst Person In The World. Sentimental Value also reunites Trier with Worst Person co-screenwriter, Eskil Vogt.
'We had this feeling that if we thought too much about the pressure of following that one up, we'd be hindered from reaching in and getting more emotional,' Trier told Vanity Fair of the pressure associated with this feature in May. Luckily, it seems like they didn't struggle all that much in that department. Grab a box of tissues and head to theaters for Sentimental Value, premiering November 7.

Diogo Jota ‘better than Figo' chant: Lyrics and inspiration behind Liverpool fan song
On July 3 2025, the football world was left numbed by the tragic news that Liverpool and Portugal forward Diogo Jota had died in a car crash, aged just 28. A fan favourite of Reds fans, Jota's goal-scoring exploits on the pitch saw supporters shower him with adulation and such was his influence that they quickly came up with a song of appreciation. Advertisement With his untimely and tragic passing, the Liverpool fans' song has now taken on a whole new meaning, whether it is retired from the songbook or sung in remembrance. What are the lyrics to the 'better than Figo' Diogo Jota chant? The song is sung to the tune of a famous chant from River Plate fans in Argentina and goes: Oh, he wears the number 20, He will take us to victory, And when he's running down the left wing, He'll cut inside and score for LFC. He's a lad from Portugal, Better than Figo don't you know, Oh, his name is Diogo! The song references Jota's Liverpool shirt number and style of play, making a favourable comparison to legendary Portugal star Luis Figo. You can see a video of Liverpool fans singing the song in happier times below. Why does Diogo Jota have his own chant at Liverpool? Simply put, Jota's high-quality performances for Liverpool are the reason why Reds fans came up with a song for him. Advertisement He opened his goal account for the club on his top-flight bow, in a 3-1 victory over Arsenal at Anfield, and did not look back. Foot and knee problems did rule him out of 21 games in the 2020-21 campaign, with his season brought to a premature conclusion in mid-May, but he was still able to find the target on 13 occasions – including a Champions League hat-trick against Atalanta. Jota had shown that he was capable of mixing it with Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino in a fearsome attacking unit, with Jurgen Klopp often favouring him in a central striking role. Having found his feet in new surroundings, the 2021-22 campaign was even more productive for the Portugal international. Jota netted 21 times in all competitions, with only Egyptian hot-shot Salah boasting a better return for the Reds. Advertisement In the subsequent seasons, Jota continued to shine for Liverpool and added a Premier League title to his honours list in 2024-25, while helping Portugal to a second UEFA Nations League title in the same season. Heartfelt tributes poured in for Jota following his death, with the Portugal football association describing him as "an extraordinary person... with infectious joy" and an example for the community. Rest in peace.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra And Apple MacBook Air Win Latest Major Tech Awards
Tomorrow's Technology Today: that's what T3 originally stood for when it became the first and most innovative lifestyle technology magazine, launching in the U.K. in October 1996. It's arguably still the most essential dedicated tech publication around and it just announced its latest wide-ranging awards. Winners of the T3 Awards 2025 There are 82 awards in total, and you can read the list in full here, but these are the ones that stood out for me. Samsung won a bunch of gongs, including the most important: it's brand of the year because as Editor-in-chief Mat Gallagher said, 'When a brand becomes synonymous with quality across a wealth of different product types, it's a real feat.' The company also snagged Best Phone for the Galaxy S25 Ultra, Best Monitor for the Odyssey OLED G8, Best Gaming TV for the Samsung S95F, which also won Best TV. Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra The Active Awards are a particularly eclectic collection, ranging from the best trail running shoes (Hoka Tecton X 3) and the best electric bike (Brompton G Line) to the best smart ring, which is the Oura Ring 4 and best smartwatch, the OnePlus Watch 3. As well as the best fitness headphones, which are the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 in the Active Awards, the Tech Awards had no fewer than four headphone winners. Best Travel Headphones are the Sony WH-1000XM6, Best Headphones are the latest Bowers & Wilkins cans, the Px& S3, Best Earbuds, Technics EAH-AZ100 and the Best Wired Headphones, arguably a more niche proposition these days, which was won by the Meze Audio Liric (2nd Generation). Apple MacBook Air Apple's triumphs came in the Best Laptop category, for the MacBook Air and Best Video Streaming Service for Apple TV+. The Home Awards had plenty of head-turning winners, from the Simba Earth Apex for Best Mattress to Amazon Echo Show 21 as Best Smart Speaker. Amazon also won for the Best Mid-Range TV with its Amazon Fire TV Omni mini-LED. Shark did especially well, picking up Shark PowerDetect for Best Vacuum Cleaner and Shark CryoGlow as Best LED Face Mask. Meanwhile, the Mous Day Backpack won for Best Travel Goods/ Luggage. The Product of the Year was the Nintendo Switch 2, which arrived just in time to qualify. Finally, two Design Awards: Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses won the Design Award, Tech, while the Design Award, Home, went to the Smeg Soda Maker. The full list is well worth checking out.

On the Podcast: 'He Really Changed the Way People Dressed'—Vogue Editors Look Back at Demna's Legacy at Balenciaga
On Wednesday, July 9, Demna will present his final couture collection at Balenciaga. For all the debuts fashion is currently anticipating, this, too, is a much awaited show; it's a rare thing to get to witness a designer knowingly put a bow around a creative tenure. Joining Nicole Phelps on this episode of The Run-Through are Sarah Mower, Vogue's chief fashion critic, and Laia Garcia-Furtado, senior fashion news editor at Vogue Runway. Together, they look at Demna's tenure at the French brand, and discuss what it says about the last decade in fashion, as well as the culture at large. When he was appointed in 2015, Demna was the designer of the semi-anonymous collective Vetements and not yet well known. He was an unexpected and exciting choice. 'You could feel the anticipation in your every fiber,' recalled Mower of the designer's Balenciaga debut. 'There was no production value. It was clean. It built up to the Helly Hansen red puffer jacket, cut off-the shoulder with this incredible ski turtleneck encrusted with crystals… that's when you got that jolt of electricity, and you could just feel that he really nailed it.' Two looks from Demna's debut collection for Balenciaga. Photo: Monica Feudi / The famous red puffer jacket. Photo: Monica Feudi / Ten years later that puffer is still Demna's favorite piece. As he told Mower a few weeks ago in an interview ahead of the opening of the 'Balenciaga by Demna' exhibition on view in Paris, 'when I came to Balenciaga, I went through all this Cristobal imagery, and he did this really amazing thing with the back of the woman's neck. He found it was so much more elegant to look at the necklace from the back than from the front. So all the necks were dropped. That's what I did here, but I never wanted to be an impersonator of Cristobal Balenciaga. I wanted it to be on a non-conventional garment for this type of elegance. That was also how I wore my outerwear. So it was a perfect fusion.' Beyond his mastery of the high/low, his experiments with pop culture (remember The Simpsons show?), and the 'immersive runway experiences' that revealed his concerns about climate change and other social and political issues, the fact remains that Demna is one of the best designers of his generation. 'He really did have a big effect on the way people dressed; reflecting or amplifying what was going on the street—literally magnifying it so much that it became hugely outsized,' said Mower. Listen to the episode below.
