Inspired by Jean-Luc Godard, Chantal Akerman's career began with the short film BLOW UP MY CITY in 1968 and includes the groundbreaking JEANNE DIELMAN. The Belgian filmmaker has frequently examined idealized notions of romance, something she does again in her latest work, the utterly
charming NIGHT AND DAY.
Jack (Thomas Langmann) and Julie (Guilaine Londez) are young lovers recently arrived in Paris from the provinces. They have no phone, no friends and no ambitions--all that can wait until next year. By night Jack drives a cab, while Julie wanders the streets of Paris; by day they make love
constantly. As for sleep ... well, that can wait until next year too.<...
