Review of Trouble Every Day (2001) by Captainhowdy — 27 Apr 2019
Apart from about two very dramatic sequences, Trouble Every Day is a slow slog that goes more or less nowhere before ending suddenly and without warning. It's like Claire Denis came up with the one "big scene" and then decided to write up a bunch of filler to go around it.
One redeeming factor: The "big scene" has one of the most realistic performances of a person in agony that I've ever seen. Pain is often poorly acted, but the performer here just nails it and makes the scene believable.
