4.0 out of 5 stars"Damaged people are dangerous. They know they can survive"
By cathy earnshaw on 25 Dec. 2007
Format: DVD
The key catalyst in this modern Greek tragedy is Anna Barton (Juliette Binoche), a young, androgynous woman and the daughter of a diplomat, whose taciturn and cryptic presence has both a bewitching and disturbing effect from the start. When she meets her boyfriend's father, Dr. Stephen Fleming (Jeremy Irons) who is a Member of Parliament, and begins an affair with him, the Oedipal roles are reversed as the father becomes the competitor for the son's love object. At a family gathering, Anna is open about her traumatic past, telling them of her brother who committed suicide at 16, unable to cope with his sister embarking on her first love affair. Left with a legacy of existential anguish, she would seem to be compulsively reenacting the conflict through new erotic entanglements in an attempt to resolve it, and remains wholly unconcerned about the destruction she might wreak in the process. As she rather melodramatically tells Stephen after another bout of aggressive sex, "Remember: damaged people are dangerous. They know they can survive".

Other reviewers have commented that the motivation of Jeremy Irons' character is not clear or realistic. But I felt that it was plausible and could understand how he might be easily seduced by Anna - she does after all embody the fierce passion and powerful emotions that are all too lacking in his boring, bourgeois marriage to Ingrid (Miranda Richardson) and the routine-based family existence he has built up with her. His betrayal of her and his own son Martyn (Rupert Graves) is not a morally reprehensible act, but I believe it was director Louis Malle's intention to show what is spontaneously - and sometimes fatally - abandoned when buried desires are finally acted upon after years of repression.Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 starsPowerful and sexy.
By A Customer on 11 Oct. 2002
Format: DVD
As a huge Jeremy Irons fan I was thrilled to discover he starred in a film based on one of my favourate books, "Damage" by Josephine Hart. I odered the DVD that day and wasn't dissapointed. The story tells of a well off middle aged Dr turned politician with a beautiful wife and two children who believes himself to be perfectly happy until he meets the aloof and beautiful fiance of his son and discovers that he has never really lived. Those who like the french or european style of film making in general will love this film, the sex scenes are powerful and realistic and the characters are wonderfully cast. The film can be bare in places, the story line disturbing, but all in all it's definately worth watching. Those expecting a "Basic Instinct" style glossed up and expensively made sex thriller will be dissapointed, those who enjoy good acting, a good story line and an element of realism will not.

5.0 out of 5 starsas always Malle makes a compelling film
By schumann_bg TOP 50 REVIEWER on 7 Oct. 2015
Format: DVD
Louis Malle often chose controversial themes as a way of exploring the human condition, yet he generally avoided a sensational treatment, preferring understatement. In Damage, his penultimate film, he pushes the envelope more than usual on the subject of all-consuming sexual passion. He always gave sexuality its due place in life and this take on it had already been the subject of Les Amants made in 1958. But here it is less lyrical, more explicit, and the consequences are shown. The big difference lies in the title; rather than the bursting of love into the lives of two people who are fundamentally well-adjusted, Juliette Binoche's character, Anna, is suffering from a trauma caused by her past which allows her to be involved with a young man - played by Rupert Graves - and his politician father at the same time. The father becomes totally obsessed by her, and the question is not only where will it all end, but also what is driving this young woman. Binoche brings great allure and mystery to the role, and the premise is intriguing, as a sly portrait of an upper-middle class English family is deftly filled in. Miranda Richardson acts with extraordinary intensity in one scene, and is completely convincing as the wife, while Leslie Caron's presence adds a certain glamour - even to what there already is - as Anna's mother. She bears a certain facial resemblance to Binoche that makes the casting ideal. Without making anyone seem better than they are, Malle manages to extend understanding to everyone, refusing to judge. It is ultimately the strength of the film, which contrasts starkly the public life of a political figure with what may be felt inwardly of great intensity.Read more ›

3.0 out of 5 starsSome fine acting - and Jeremy Irons
By Lovborg on 9 Aug. 2002
Format: VHS Tape
You know how Jeremy Irons can be absolutely outstanding (Dead Ringers) or buttock-clenchingly embarassing (Stealing Beauty)? Well this performance belongs in the latter category: this tale of forbidden passion brings out all that is hammy in Irons and then adds some ham for good measure. The good news is that Miranda Richardson (who won an Oscar nomination for her role as Irons' wife) is astonishingly good - her final scene will stay in your mind for ever as one of the best, most truthful performances you are likely to see - and isn't alone: Binoche and Graves are both very good in thankless parts. Gymnastic and unlikely sex scenes apart, there are reaons to enjoy this film: but Irons' self-important and dull performance is a major draw-back.
