Norway celebrates after record nine Oscar nominations

Cheers, but it's hard to keep count. The mood was high among the "Sentimental Value" gang when a total of nine Oscar nominations were announced - a Norwegian record.

I think I've partially taken it in, but it's kind of too big to take in completely. I'm very happy, proud and grateful, Renate Reinsve tells NTB.

Reinsve, nominated in the best actress category, and the "Sentimental Value" team followed the broadcast at the Norwegian Film Institute in Oslo.

We barely had time to celebrate one category before they read out the next, and then we celebrated again, says Reinsve, who reveals that they had difficulty keeping count.

On a video link from Los Angeles was director Joachim Trier, who was a few seconds ahead of the broadcast.

We finally had to tell him: 'No spoilers!' But he's very easy to read and when we saw him sitting there with big eyes and a smile, we knew our name had been read out again.
