Voices in the Night (es|'''Las voces de la noche'''|links=no) is a 2003 Spanish-Italian romantic drama film written and directed by based on the 1963 novel Voices in the Evening by Natalia Ginzburg. Ruiz relocates the setting from an Italian village to a Spanish one, but keeps the setting in the 1950s.[1] [2] The main roles are played by Laia Marull, Tristán Ulloa, and Vicky Peña.
A Spanish-Italian co-production by DeAPlaneta, Esicma, and Mikado, the film also had the participation of Antena 3, Canal+, and TVC. Shooting locations included the province of Girona.[3]
The film screened at the 48th Valladolid International Film Festival (Seminci) in October 2003.[4] Distributed by Columbia TriStar, it was theatrically released in Spain on 27 February 2004.
Jonathan Holland of Variety deemed the film to "a well-dressed, if over-earnest, romancer", "otherwise solidly built, well-played".[5]
Nuria Vidal of Fotogramas rated the film 4 out of 5 stars, highlighting the performance by Marull as the best thing about the film.[6]
Casimiro Torreiro of El País deemed Voices in the Night to be a "glossy, evocative and rigorous provincial drama".[7]
