An unfeasibly
gripping social realist parable that provides a gravitational showcase for one of Marion Cotillard «s finest performances (and yes, we know that's saying something), the Dardenne brothers» «Two Days, One Night» sees the two - time Palme d'Or winners put in a serious bid for a third (though probably, Cannes rules being what they are, a Best Actress trophy for Cotillard is more likely).
In a manner both visually
gripping and psychologically strange, Pittman's hallucinatory works reference myriad aesthetic styles, from Victorian silhouettes to
social realist murals to Mexican «retablos.»
