Upcoming French movie "TWO DAYS, ONE NIGHT" at the NEON Theater!

On Friday, February 6, the NEON theater in Dayton  will open the new film by master filmmakers Luc & Jean-Pierre Dardenne - TWO DAYS, ONE NIGHT (DEUX JOURS, UNE NUIT), and it stars one of our favorite French actresses - Marion Cotillard.  Lovers of THE NEON and good cinema are quite familiar with Cotillard's work.  From her Academy Award winning performance as Edith Piaf in LA VIE EN ROSE to her smaller role in MIDNIGHT IN PARIS to her work in the incredible and gritty RUST AND BONE, she has been a force to watch on screen.
 

Synopsis for TWO DAYS, ONE NIGHT:  Marion Cotillard has been nominated for the "Best Actress" Oscar in this phenomenal new film. "Sandra (Cotillard) has just been released from the hospital to find that she no longer has a job. According to management, the only way Sandra can hope to regain her position at the factory is to convince her co-workers to sacrifice their much-needed yearly bonuses. Now, over the course of one weekend, Sandra must confront each co-worker individually in order to win a majority of their votes before time runs out. With TWO DAYS, ONE NIGHT, the Dardennes have turned a relevant social inquiry into a powerful statement on community solidarity, once again delivering a film that is simple on the surface but alive with both compassion and wisdom."
