In the usual chats, my colleagues often describe their current situation with the phrase "more than enough" or "less than the best", or use this sentence to comfort themselves after complaining. Sometimes it's quite practical to think about it. .
Sandra, the heroine in "Two Days and One Night", fell into the predicament of life at the beginning. She lost her job in depression, was fired by her boss, and when her mood improved, she wanted to get the job back through her own efforts. The boss gave her a chance, if Sandra persuaded 16 employees to vote yes If you do, you can continue to work, but it also means that others will lose 1,000 euros in bonuses. "Two Days and One Night" is about what the female worker Sandra thought and did during this time. When it comes to hard work, in fact, Sandra's actions are difficult to talk about. Without the constant husband, without the family that leaks and hides the possibility of happiness, there is no strength in these two aspects to supervise She, forcing her step by step, she could only be like a sick chicken all the time, and it would be difficult for her to catch up on the shelves again. Most of her struggles were to explain to them.
The works of the Darney brothers generally have two branches: one is about the theme of personal growth, and the most prominent ones are "One Promise" and "The Bicycle Boy", and the other branch mainly reflects work and family issues: "The Son of Others", "Rosetta", "The Child", "The Silence of Rorna". Growth, work, and family constitute the three primary colors of life, and the troubles and troubles in life come from the coordination of these three. What "Two Days and One Night" shows is a woman who works hard for work or family, and then declines again. A three-and-done struggle. This story seems simple and clear, and it is easy to tell, but in fact, the reason why it doesn't seem difficult is because, as Sandra said in the film: because you don't have to go. Just imagine, if this happened to me, would I be able to easily survive these two days and one night. It seems quite simple and straightforward to ask colleagues who used to live together day and night to vote to stay. As long as it is not bitter and hated, basically a phone call can convince him. Give me a thin face, no matter how profitable it is, I think not many people can do it. In my limited social experience, I really think about it so beautifully.
However, in the film, the first colleague Sandra met rejected her, and she chose the bonus with a tactful but firm attitude. Very unexpected, in my opinion, this itself is a manifestation of humiliation and moral corruption, how can it be like this. Maybe most people, like me, are convinced that they are full of love for this world, but at the same time they are trying to avoid the indifference and cold side of the real world. Therefore, when Sandra is repeatedly attacked by the same After the reason was rejected, I easily accepted the fact that this is the life we ​​are in.
This film is completely different from all the previous works of the Darney brothers. Although it is still a realistic shooting technique and narrative, it is no longer cold and objective. The film is full of emotions and emotions. Della is no longer as expressionless as Rosetta, leaving no traces. The whole person is like a leaking ball, a dilapidated look that will collapse at any time. Fans who are familiar with Darnay's style know that their works rarely have their own attitude towards the story. They adhere to the principle of "zero degree of participation" from beginning to end. Only the reality of life is given to the audience, but "Two Days and One Night" falls into a cliché like the plot reversal of a suspense film. At the end of the film, Sandra, who had returned from defeat, looked a little more relaxed than before, although she was at the end of the battle. She said on the phone: This time we fought a beautiful battle. Many people can't stand this, and think that after this treatment, the overall force of the film plummets. But I feel that this is the scene that moved me the most among so many Darney films.
You have to admit that there are many things in life, and the results are exactly the same with and without effort, but many people still choose to work hard. In the struggle with life, think about what else you can do besides it...
