• Two days to kill

    May 27th, 2008

    Antoine is a man who has every reason to be happy. A job in advertising that it relates enough to be free from want, a loving wife, two beautiful children, a big house in the suburbs, a big German sedan, close friends. Yet for 42 years, it will flatten everything, methodically.

    After an operation truth meeting with a client “never content”, Antoine (Albert Dupontel) resigns and sells shares of its box his partner. He then left to believe his wife Cécile (Marie-Josee Croze) he has a liaison and does not even attempt to deny when she speaks of this Marion with a friend who saw. It is despicable with his stepmother guindée and “break burnes” drive with his children who offer drawings imperfect as a birthday gift. His conduct is derail the sale of a car collector for his best friend, and when began his “holiday surprise,” it sends a bouler an all his friends during the evening, forgetting person, sparing neither their hypocrisy nor their life tidy. When finally as everyone hates and returned home, Antoine said goodbye to his children and then disappears at the wheel of his sedan. Direction of Ireland…

    Is this the crisis quarantine the man who pushes the quiet life to conduct its own revolution, shouting his need space and its urgency to feel alive?

    Without revealing the outcome of history-not our usual two-day killing is one of the best films of Jean Becker (Summer murderer, Dialogue with my gardener), of its kind to wake up deep emotions and violent as in I am fine, Do not Worry Philippe Lioret (2006). Interpreted by Albert Dupontel disturbing and unpredictable, and Marie-Josee Croze collapsed two days to kill is indeed a great baffe in the mouth: it sends the carpet!
