Interview from July 10, 2021: She had a scene, a very small scene in Oslo August 31. But she never lost contact with Joachim Trier who, by embarking on the writing of Julie (in 12 chapters), had only her in mind to play the title role. A proposal that came more than exactly right because the day before this meeting, Renate Reinsve thought about putting her acting career on hold for lack of exciting projects. Months later, here she is on the Croisette to defend this film in competition and the first major role of her career. And in one evening, that of July 9, 2021, her destiny has undoubtedly just changed as she thrilled festival-goers with her strikingly natural interpretation, full of nuances, as stunning in moments of comedy as in moments of drama which span the chronicle over several years of the life of this wife, her loves, her friends, her troubles. Meet our crush at the start of the festival.
