Critic’s Notebook: At Berlin, New Talents and Youthful ‘Dreams’ Signal a Fresh Chapter for 75-Year-Old Fest

Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic How far back in the Berlin Film Festival’s 75-year history do you have to go to find an edition as strong as this one? About a quarter-century, I reckon, to 2002, when “Bloody Sunday” and “Spirited Away” tied for the festival’s top prize. As long as I can remember, Berlin held the distant-third spot in the so-called “Big Three” festivals, far behind Cannes and Venice in both prestige and its power to attract the caliber of movies that shape the conversation.

After Germany’s Right-Wing Gains in Elections, New Conservative Leader Vows to ‘Achieve Independence’ From U.S. Under Trump’s Rule

Ed Meza @edmezavar While the far right made historic gains in Germany’s pivotal federal elections on Sunday, the conservative Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party ultimately thrived with Friedrich Merz securing nearly 29% of the vote and placing him in the top spot to lead the country. Poised to become Germany’s next chancellor, Merz has yet to form a coalition with at least one other party in order to secure a majority in the German parliament, but he has already vowed to “achieve independence from the U.S.A.” in view of President Donald Trump’s indifference towards Europe.

‘Dreams (Sex Love)’ Review: Dag Johan Haugerud’s Golden Bear Winner Takes An Unexpected Look At The Mystery Of Desire – Berlin Film Festival

Refreshingly unexpected, Dag Johan Haugerud’s Dreams (Sex Love) — the first Norwegian film to win the Berlinale’s Golden Bear — breathes new life into the often oversimplified genre of sexual awakening that seems to draw on his twinned career in both cinema and books. This headlong, hyper-nuanced account of a teenage girl’s first love fuses the interiority of novels and the sensuous embrace of cinema in ways that other films fumble. Led by a smartly underplayed performance by Ella Øverbye, this third, stand-alone entry in a trilogy (released in Norway last October) moves engrossingly between her romantic entrancement and insightful commentary, both her own and her family’s.
