As a Belgian it's a shame but this was my first encounter with films by the Dardenne brothers (I think). And the introduction was pleasant, clear craftsmanship combined with a particularly good Cotillard (what an actress really).

Cotillard portrays a very convincingly depressed person in this film. Fascinating to see her moods, fear, indecision, fighting spirit. And finally the liberating smile when she deliberately decides not to accept her supervisor's offer. All very recognizable! 4☆

Just as 'I, Daniel Blake' (2016) is a social-realistic feat in Ken Loach's oeuvre, so is 'Deux Jours, Une Nuit' (2014) for the work of the Dardenne brothers. Such a key film in which social themes that have been built up over decades link up with current events. In that regard, I find this print of the Dardennes a notch because of the way in which systemic criticism is wrapped in a sharp moral dilemma. Would you be willing to sacrifice your holiday pay so that a colleague with psychiatric problems can keep her job? Simple but effective, like a thriller-like pressure cooker in which Sandra Bya (Marion Cotillard) has to convince her colleagues not to vote her out in a short period of time. The labor dispute adds tension as Cotillard's character is visibly broken by burnout and can't really handle this humiliating quest. Even more than through social criticism itself, 'Deux Jours, Une Nuit' (2014) comes in like a sledgehammer because of that lived-in, layered female role.
