Reviews
John Malkovich stars in director Steve Jacobs' adaptation of J.M. Coetzee's Booker Prize-winning novel concerning a Cape Town whose flight from scandal leads him into a direct confrontation with the lingering demons of apartheid. Fastidious Cape Town college professor David Lurie (Malkovich) may see himself as somewhat impervious, though he's about to bring about his own downfall due to a selfish and foolhardy relationship with a student who isn't afraid to drag their clandestine affair screaming into the light. When controversy erupts on campus as a result of the affair, David beats a hasty retreat into the countryside in order to lie low on his daughter Lucy (Jessica Haines)' farm in the Eastern Cape. David fears for his daughter's isolation, fears that are soon confirmed when father and daughter are violently attacked by three black youth. In the aftermath of the horrific siege, David is deeply shaken to learn that one of their assailants is in fact a relative of trusted worker Petrus (Eriq Ebouaney), who lives peacefully alongside Lucy in the South African brush, and has even begun constructing a home at the edge of her property. Can these people somehow find grace in a country that's still struggling with its tragic history, or is that history destined to repeat itself forever into the future?
Disgrace tells the tale of David Lurie, a literature professor. Lurie retreats to his daughter's farm in a small Cape Town, South African town. Lurie is trying to put behind him a highly publicized scandal where he slept with one of his students. He finds that even in his new setting trouble has followed him and no matter how far he goes, his past has continued to haunt him.
Disgrace is a 2009 film based on the 2003 Nobel Prize winning novel by South African author J.M . Coetzee. The film is directed by Steve Jacobs and is written by Anna Maria Moticelli based on the novel by J.M. Coetzee.
