Days and Clouds Reviews
Mr. Soldini, who made the 2001 sleeper hit “Bread and Tulips,” has thoughtfully fashioned a human interest story out of current events by creating wholly believable characters and scenarios.

It's not a film for those who go to movies to escape life.
| Original Score: B | May 30, 2011
Well intentioned yet utterly dull...
| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 5, 2011
draws viewers in close and never relinquishes its grip
| Original Score: B+ | Jan 26, 2009
This kind of story is happening much more frequently with the economic recession that is affecting much of the world now.
| Original Score: A | Jan 13, 2009
A great deal of the reason for that belongs solely to Buy. This is, without a doubt, one of the finest performances by an actress I've seen this year, nearly up to the same remarkable plateau as Kristin Scott Thomas' work in I've Loved You So Long.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 26, 2008
Days and Clouds, despite its darkness, warmly reminds us that if we have each other, sometimes that's all we need.

... or all the emotional integrity and observational exactness, it's more social study than character drama.
| Original Score: C+ | Nov 20, 2008
Evidently we aren't the only ones feeling nervous about the economy.

Days and Clouds serves as a primer in coping with depression, financial and/or personal. But it is stirring, serious and, ultimately, mercifully optimistic cinema.

Elsa and Michele's story is such a deft study of what can make a relationship go to pieces that it's a satisfying watch in spite of all the bitterness.

The movie's success in Italy is partly a matter of frustration: Women need their men to grow up.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 10, 2008
a thought-provoking and powerful story that will appeal to mature audiences and those who appreciate fine filmmaking...that is worth laying out 12 bucks to see it at the theater.
| Original Score: A | Oct 3, 2008
Soldini gets at all the nuances of a marriage of many years in crisis, and, without a typical 'happy' ending where all worries are neatly resolved, wraps with hopeful poetry...
| Original Score: A- | Sep 28, 2008
An intelligent adult drama that's especially relevant in these harsh economic times.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 26, 2008
Little is surprising about either characters' behavior, but there isn't a single anguished expression that plays forced or false.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 26, 2008
It plays out more like a 12-step program than a human drama.
| Sep 26, 2008
What seemed at first a provocative study of a family tragedy becomes a two-hour immersion into minutiea until you start thinking that the exits are where the action is.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Sep 13, 2008
This is a portrait of nerve-racking economic times, and it cuts close to the bone in detailing how a marriage suffers when its financial underpinnings are suddenly knocked away.
| Original Score: 4/4 | Aug 29, 2008
