Her movie debut was in On the Threshold from 1984. She has also taken part in motion pictures including For the Days are Evil (1991) and Disturbance from 2006.

In 1988 she won The Amanda Award in the best leading actress category for Nothing Grows from Moonlight.

Anne Krigsvoll won The Hedda Award 1999 in particularly excellent performance category for the role of Idun Hov in Shame, produced by The National Theatre.

Anne Krigsvoll received The Hedda Award 2019 in the best supporting actress category for the roles of A stranger and Another stranger in Me Near, The National Theatre.

The Hedda Jury gave the following reason for the award:

"This year's best supporting actress is visible in every way - a colleague who in force of being exactly that, a colleague - contributes to the weight of the performance. In the role, and as a performer, she significantly influences the development of the main character. With fine details and timing her presence is strong, convincing, quiet and down to earth, in a performance circling existential themes such as the relationships between family, friends and partners. She belongs among the great performers in the Norwegian community of actors, regardless of role, and in this performance, she switches effortlessly between being a grown-up woman and a young man."

Anne Krigsvoll was nominated for The Hedda Award 2020 in the best leading actress category for the role of Winnie in Happy Days, The National Theatre.

In 2003 she won The Gammleng Award in the category for actors.
