Quiet movies, depressing or suffocating

There is almost no music and soundtrack, no camera and editing skills, no exaggerated performances, the whole process is a DV shooting, the plot advances little by little, like a documentary, it shows us the screams and struggles of the bottom citizens.

Depression is really common. People with depression are more vulnerable than we think, but they are also stronger than we think.

The heroine in the film, an ordinary female worker in a small town, a mother of two children, is recovering from depression. Losing her job was fatal to her life and family. Originally, I thought this was a special case, and she was unlucky, but as the plot progressed, I discovered that her colleagues were also facing such and other problems of survival and life, and then I realized that this was a period of economic depression. The wave of unemployment is not easy for everyone.

I have never experienced such a wave of unemployment in my memory. No matter how bad the environment is, as long as people are willing to endure hardships, they can always find a job that may be hard but not bad, and no one around them will be restricted by a job. Listening to the language I don't understand at all in the film, I know that the story takes place in a faraway place, but this is true anywhere on earth, and it is true for everyone, with similar troubles and hearts. Maybe materially, the lives of this group of people are far from the so-called poverty in our eyes, but they all have the same worries about life.

The biggest feeling is that the French are very polite. Whether it is a colleague or a passerby, they not only maintain the due distance and respect, but also have a cordial and decent etiquette. At the same time, although everyone is worried about their livelihood, they are all kind in nature and are unwilling to hurt others for their selfish thoughts. Even the colleagues who voted against it are under more pressure.

I think the only bad guy should be the company or the boss. From the beginning I was thinking, why is there such a ridiculous vote? Why do you have to pay the moral price of killing your colleagues to get the bonus you deserve?

There is a term in psychology that I always mention called "risk transfer", which refers to the possibility of making risky and harmful sacrifices when a decision is made by a group of people rather than one person's own judgment. big. Because everyone involved in decision-making believes that this price is shared by all participants, and the pressure in their hearts will be equally divided. The boss who came up with this voting method should know this very well, and leave the so-called decision-making power to everyone, and at the same time make everyone a selfish or ruthless bad person.

Fortunately, the last heroine chose to stick to kindness. Maybe she lost her job and income, but what she regained was the courage and backbone to continue living. For a person who has just come out of the shadow of depression, this is far more precious than a bonus of 1,000 euros.

    This is exactly what the sentence said - watching the movie, the cinema is closed! I came out and said that I had just received the next theater in Dongcheng District. Losing a job, but getting a life back is better than anything else! The ending is a little abrupt. This film can be regarded as a little hope in this Dana Film Festival that it will not cause depression to the end. For Marion, the bright pink vest is really eye-catching. Annie, who was going to divorce her husband, saved her life. I'm just wondering, 8 years ago, the standard of living in Europe was not very high, and these people really lacked 1,000 euros? For two days and one night, various life forms are presented from very small events. See also Olivier, the bad supervisor. Even depressed patients work so hard to survive, what reason do we have to lie down!

    Three guarantees of Dane product quality. Once again, they used the most down-to-earth-looking style to package the well-designed story (this time it was an upgrade to Daguai). To be honest, the films they have made in recent years are almost at the same level, using the same technique (don’t tell me how different it is to use a little soundtrack), and the films are all in the same tune... Isn’t it boring...

Two Days, One Night quotes

  • Sandra: Everytime I feel like a beggar, a thief coming to take their money. They look at me, ready to hit me. I feel like I'm hitting them too.

  • Timur: Hello.

    Sandra: Hello. Your daughter told me you were here. I was round at your place. I wanted to see you about the vote on the bonus and me being laid off. Juliette and I saw Dumont and he'll let us hold another ballot Monday because Jean-Marc influenced people by telling them that Dumont wanted to lay off staff anyway. So if it wasn't me who was made redundant it would be them... So... I wanted to ask you if... if you'd vote for me to stay on Monday.

    Timur: [in tears] Of course I will. I'm really glad you're here. I'm so mad at myself for voting for my bonus. I'm sorry.

    Sandra: Don't be sorry. I can understand. 1.000 Euros.

    Timur: No. I'm ashamed. I even forgot what you did for me. Remember? When I broke those cells... and you said you did it. You remember.

    Sandra: Yes, and Jean-Marc even said: "Fine example to set the new guy!"

    Timur: I'm really glad you came.
