Review of Two Days, One Night (2014) by Kj P — 17 Feb 2015
Aside from it's off-putting title, "Two Days, One Night" is one of the most original films in recent memory. Spanning over the course of only two days, we follow a woman who is about to lose her job, due to budget cuts, but it may have the chance of being saved if her colleages vote her to stay over accepting a bonus.
The film is essentially about one woman's right to work, travelling all over to town to convice her colleagues that fair work is more than extra cash. Marion Cotillard really stands out here, deserving every last bit of pairse she is receiving for her role.
The script is sharp, the events are believable, and truthfully (personally vendetta's aside), this is a near flawless picture. It will really hit home to those families who have lost things due to not being able to work.
"Two Days, One Night" is a simple little film, but also one of the best of 2014. Beautiful!
