The BAFTA Award nomination was for Best Foreign Language Film. Lund's entry into acting is described, thus, by ''Headhunters (film), Headhunters'' co-star Aksel Hennie: "When I first read the script I pictured Synnove because I knew her from before and she had reviewed every single film I've done and Morten (the director) asked me, 'Is she a film critic? Yeah. Has she reviewed any of my films? Yeah. Was the review good? Yeah. OK then we can try her', So we tried her and she came so prepared — more prepared than any actress."
