The Weekend Away Quiz – Which Character Are You?

By:

Take this The Weekend Away Quiz to find out which character you are. We update the quiz regularly and it’s the most accurate among the other quizzes.

As somber cello music swells, a woman’s body floats face down in dark waters. After a quick title and dissolve, the water, now devoid of body, is bright and inviting. The camera pans across a picturesque Croatian coastal town. As bright-eyed new mom Beth (Leighton Meester) takes a taxi to a girl’s weekend away with best friend Kate, everything is sunshine and palm trees (Christina Wolfe).

Editor’s Picks

Kate is in free fall following the dissolution of her marriage, so the entire trip is on her, including the most luxurious Airbnb, raw oysters, and copious amounts of alcohol. They’ve been best friends since Beth’s semester abroad in England, when Kate introduced her to her now-husband, Rob (Luke Norris). Since the birth of Beth’s daughter Aster, the women have drifted apart a little. One of Beth and Kate will be dead by the end of their weekend. Also, you must try to play this The Weekend Away Quiz.

The new Netflix thriller “The Weekend Away,” written by Sarah Alderson from her own novel and directed by Kim Farrant, is cut from the same cloth as those great cheesy ’90s thrillers like “Double Jeopardy,” where the plot has more twists than the serpentine roads Beth’s taxi takes to get to her Airbnb. But that’s fine. The thrill of a thriller like this is getting lost in its settings and caught up in the web it spins.

The Weekend Away Quiz

Farrant and cinematographer Noah Greenberg use fluid camera movements to capture the alluring sunny beauty of Split, Croatia. Pink sunsets stand out against the ancient stone structures. The actors are framed like classic postcards or vacation photos, with the cityscape always in the background. Even during the film’s darker twists, the tourist vibes remain, as if the entire film were told through a slide show of the most disastrous vacation ever.

Introverted Beth has frazzled hair and no makeup, wearing a sage green crochet dress for their big night out; extroverted Kate, on the other hand, wears bright red lips and teal sequins. Meester does an excellent job of balancing new mom exhaustion with the obvious joy of being reunited with Kate. Meanwhile, Wolfe buzzes through her brief appearance, high on whatever she’s high on and ready to paint the town red.

Their “one night of excitement” to break Beth out of her rut begins in a smoky neon-lit bar where they meet a couple of handsome men and ends with Kate missing. Unfortunately, the opening shot deflates much of the tension in this scene because we know Kate’s fate before Beth does. The chemistry between Beth and Zain (a soulful Ziad Bakri), a cab driver and Syrian refugee who helps her retrace the night, is what makes this part of the film work. Does all of this make logical sense? No, not at all. However, Bakri imbues his character with such a rich interiority and personal code of ethics that you almost believe what the film is selling.

About the quiz

Films like this live or die based on the commitment of their leadership performance and whether the audience root for her to get out of this mess. Meester has always had a likable screen presence, and the film wisely keeps her point of view throughout, anchoring the audience’s investment in her. Farrant does not shy away from a classic close-up in the more emotional sequences, allowing Meester to showcase her expressive eyes.

Aside from the enjoyable shock factor of the twists—I yelled out “What?!?” several times—the film explores the concept of trust. Beth trusts Kate, even when she forces her to do things that are out of her comfort zone. That is the foundation of their friendship. Beth has faith in Zain. When the cops try to make her doubt her trust, he tells her in Arabic, “The heart is your guide.” Beth believes in her gut instincts, even when the police, Kate’s estranged husband Jay (Parth Thakerar), and even her own husband Rob tries to convince her otherwise. Although the ridiculous plotting undermines some of the film’s message about gaslighting, Meester and Bakri’s grounded performances keep the story grounded.

“The Weekend Away” is the best kind of intentionally ridiculous potboiler. The scenery is breathtaking, the plot twists keep the adrenaline pumping, and the performances are unforgettable. Even if you don’t remember everything that happens, you’ll have a good time for the time being.
