Disgrace (2008)

In South Africa, a professor gets involved with a student. He is forced to resign and goes to live with his daughter in a dangerous country place.

An intelligent movie about a man who has to move from an unreal world (the University) to a real one. The film is mostly well done and it is hard to name one responsible for its merits. Both direction and screenplay seem very competent to me, and I haven't read the Coetzee novel, so I can't really say how good it is. This is probably a happy confluence (hope this word exists) of talents.

Rating: 75 (so far the best 2008 movie I have seen).
