Trouble Every Day is a 2001 film by French film director Claire Denis. The film was written by Denis, and Jean-Pol Fargeau. The film stars Vincent Gallo, Tricia Vessey, Béatrice Dalle, and Alex Descas. The film's soundtrack is provided by Tindersticks. The film takes its title from a song Frank Zappa wrote and recorded with his band the Mothers of Invention for their album Freak Out!. Although initially it was met with a harsh reaction from critics, it has since developed a small following who admire it for its themes of existentialism and its unique take on the horror genre as well as gender roles. It was given an in depth analysis by Salon.com which looked at the intricacies of the film, particularly the metaphorical nature of the narrative. At Film Freak Central, Walter Chaw calls it "Plaintive and sad, Claire Denis' Trouble Every Day is a rare combination of honesty, beauty, and maybe even genius." (review) The film has been associated with the New French Extremity. (via Wikipedia)
