The Great Darkened Days

The Great Darkened Days (La grande noirceur) is a 2018 Canadian drama film, directed by Maxime Giroux. Set during World War II, the film centres on Philippe (Martin Dubreuil), a draft dodger from Quebec who is living as a drifter and Charlie Chaplin impersonator in the United States. Despite its setting, however, the film makes use of some deliberate anachronisms, including a scene where R.E.M.'s contemporary song "Everybody Hurts" plays on the radio.

The film's cast also includes Sarah Gadon, Cody Fern, Luzer Twersky, Romain Duris, Reda Kateb and Lise Roy.

The film premiered at the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival.
