Jean-Pierre Dardenne (born 21 April 1951) and Luc Dardenne (born 10 March 1954) are two Belgian brothers and directors acclaimed for their austere style. Their work is deeply rooted in social realism, observing the trials and tribulations of the Belgian underclass. As you can imagine, their movies get ''bleak'', although they usually leave at least a little bit of hope for the protagonist at the end.

The Cannes Film Festival absolutely ''loves'' these guys. In 1999, the Dardenne brothers won the UsefulNotes/PalmeDOr for ''Film/{{Rosetta}}'', upsetting the predicted winner, ''Film/AllAboutMyMother''. Almost every movie they've made since then has won ''something'' at Cannes (the only exception being ''Film/TheUnknownGirl''), and the two won the Palme a second time for ''Film/LEnfant'' in 2005.
