Adapted from author David Nicholls' critically acclaimed novel of the same name, director Lone Scherfig's One Day stars Anne Hathaway as a principled working-class girl who forges a unique bond with a wealthy jet-setter that spans two decades. July 15, 1988: Emma (Hathaway) is about to enter the real world. An idealist from humble upbringings, she dreams of making the world a better place for everyone. On the night of her graduation, Emma (Hathaway) meets Dexter (Jim Sturgess), a wealthy flirt without a care in the world. Dexter is also graduating, though unlike Emma he looks forward to a future of comfort and privilege. By checking back with Emma and Dexter every July 15th for the next 20 years, we experience their happiness, hardships, and heartache as they strive to live out their dreams, and find meaning in a world that's constantly changing.

  1. Positive review
    Jim Schembri, The Age (Australia) Danish director Lone Scherfig (An Education) deliberately veers away from comedy to deliver a surprisingly earthy, soulful romance. Full review External link
  2. Negative review
    Peter Galvin, sbs.com.au It's a profoundly moving book. Still, the movie is strangely remote, and straining for tears. Full review External link
  3. Negative review
    Jason Di Rosso, MovieTime, ABC Radio National A frothy cappuccino of a film with lots of tears, quivering lips and cathartic embraces and little substance. Full review External link
  4. Positive review
    Cara Nash, FILMINK (Australia) It doesn't quite deliver on its promise, but this remains a witty, touching and largely enjoyable adaptation. Full review External link
  5. Negative review
    Leigh Paatsch, Herald Sun (Australia) The most desperate, cloying weepie seen in many a long time. Full review External link
  6. Positive review
    Margaret Pomeranz, At the Movies (Australia) There's not really a chance to go very deep here, but the two leads are so strong that they make us believe in them anyway. Full review External link
  7. Positive review
    Thomas Caldwell, Cinema Autopsy Despite the patchiness and the heavily signposted and melodramatic plot points, One Day concludes magnificently. Full review External link
  8. Positive review
    Louise Keller, Urban Cinefile A bittersweet love story. Due to its fragmented structure, the dramatic arc never seems satisfying enough, although Rachel Portman's beautiful score weaves a melodic rainbow through the exposition Full review External link
  9. Positive review
    Sukhdev Sandhu, Daily Telegraph A pleasant, occasionally amusing, tragically tasteful romantic drama. Full review External link
