The Belgian brothers Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne are known for writing, producing and directing films that focus on working-class life in their native Belgium. The duo started with documentary films and moved into dramas shot in a naturalistic style. TWO DAYS, ONE NIGHT, Belgium's entry for Best Foreign Language Film in this year's Academy Awards, is the first Dardenne film to star a an “A-list” actress, Marion Cotillard, whose performance earned a nomination for Best Actress. "Hiring such a famous actress was an additional challenge for us,” said Luc of Ms. Cotillard, who adopted a Belgian accent for the role.
