Having packed up her possessions to move in with her lover, Laure is more unsettled than she appears. Needing to get out and have a change of scenery, she jumps in her car to go to have dinner with friends--only to become stuck in a terrible traffic jam. Laure completely forgot about the mass transit strike that has thrown the city into chaos. But Laure feels good in her car, the only place she has for herself right now. As she takes in the sights and sounds around her--the blare of horns and arguments, the shimmer of lights and camaraderie--Laure notices a calm and self-assured stranger, Jean, approach her car. Soon thereafter, she opens her car door door to the man who--that night--will change her life.
Leave your thoughts about Friday Night.
| Salon.comStephanie ZacharekThis is a story about two lovers meeting improbably and fleetingly, but it's layered with strata of tenderness and deep bliss, as if a lifetime of connection could be packed into just one night. |
| Washington PostChristina TalcottThis film is so understated and restrained that even the bedroom scenes seem detached. |
| Boxoffice MagazineKevin CourrierA daydream of a movie cast in nightshade. |
| MovieMartyr.comJeremy HeilmanAn intensely, yet sensitively, realized account of a one-night stand, [that] masterfully builds tension as it shows us its protagonist's very subjective point of view. |
| Slant MagazineEd GonzalezFriday Night is an evocation of one woman's uncertainties, flights of fancy and elusive joys. |
| Reeling ReviewsRobin CliffordI had seen ["Vendredi Soir"] in September of 2002 at the Venice Film Festival. I give the film credit that, now, months later, the images and emotion remain strong within me. |
| Seattle TimesErik LundegaardLaure is uptight, slightly vacant, often confused. That the film becomes slightly surreal in the second half doesn't help. |
| culturevulture.netGeorge WuProbably ... too low-keyed and deliberately paced for some, but its rewards are ample for the patient and attentive. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael WilmingtonI didn't buy it for a minute, though I did enjoy it. |
| CompuserveHarvey S. KartenClaire Denis gives stunning visual life to a fantasy that all of us in the audience have had. |
