Het Leven uit een Dag plot

In a world in which a human life lasts only one day and where every act is unique, Benny (Matthijs van de Sande Bakhuyzen) and Gini (Loïs Dols de Jong) fall in love with each other so much that one day is not long enough. There is a way out: if you go to hell, you end up in the world as we know it. A world where you can get drunk, fall in love, have sex without limits, even with different people. Benny and Gini come up with a plan. They commit a murder, which means that they are both sentenced to death and thus end up in hell at the same time. But when the sentence is carried out, something goes wrong, preventing the two lovers from going to hell at the same time. Desperately, they search for each other in this new world full of repetition.

Yes, the elaboration of the story has too many loose ends.

And yes, too often the acting performances were quite subpar.

But at the same time I watched a daring film.

And while the interaction between the two protagonists could have been more in-depth,

yet you were taken along in the longing by the set-up and the music.

Bold, intense, with the necessary beauty flaws: * 3.5

I haven't read the book (yet), but I really like the movie. I find it so beautiful, dreamy, artistic and poetic. The split screen makes it more special, I like the dialogues, and the acting too. Nice to recognize the shooting locations in The Hague. I clearly do not agree with the low scores, because this really appealed to me, it touched me and made a big impression on me. Therefore a 9. 4.5*

Extraordinary idea is strongly worked out in this fanciful film. Benny spoons up his lyrics as if he were reading them from a sheet of paper and that, together with other elements, gives this film a dreamy atmosphere. Beautiful camera images with sometimes beautiful blur, finished in beautiful colors. The split screen, sound design and music give the film its own character; unique in Dutch film history. I am very glad I saw this movie.
