Two Days, One Night (15)

Drama

The film follows Sandra, a young woman assisted by her husband, who has only one weekend to convince her colleagues to give up their bonuses so that she can keep her job.


The critical consensus

Another stark essay in desperation from the remarkable Dardennes Brothers.

****(*)Siobhan Synnot, The Scotsman, 17/08/2014

It is no less compassionate or political than we have come to expect from the brothers, although it is more sentimental than their early work.

****(*)Allan Hunter, The List, 18/08/2014

Belgium’s best-kept secrets are breaking through without selling out, and their unshowily inspiring domestic drama reminds us you don’t need to go to war – or prison – to earn redemption.

****(*)Matt Glasby, Total Film, 18/08/2014

Even if you’ve skipped the Dardennes’ work until now, this is a talking-point movie — and an outstanding lead performance — you need to see. It’s a rare film of unforced simplicity that will stick with you for a long time. And it’s honest right to its perfectly judged ending.

*****Kim Newman, Empire Online, 18/08/2014

We may be jumping the gun, but Two Days, One Night is the brothers’ greatest film.

*****David Jenkins, Little White Lies, 21/08/2014
