Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
The fascination of watching Damage is similar to the fascination of watching a car crash in progress--you know something unpleasant is going to happen, but your attention is riveted to the scene of destruction. In the case of this acclaimed drama, adapted by playwright David Hare from the novel by Josephine Hart, the destruction results from a collision of sexual attraction between a British governmental official (Jeremy Irons) and his son's fiancée (Juliette Binoche). Blind to the damage they'll cause to others and themselves, they begin an obsessive affair based purely on impulsive attraction and the hidden emotions that feed into their immediate physical desires. As you could expect, this leads to emotional fallout for everyone concerned, lending multiple interpretations to the film's title and allowing Miranda Richardson (as Irons's wife) to give a brilliant performance drawn from raw anger and betrayal. Under the direction of Louis Malle, this forceful drama never resorts to sordid detail or gratuitous titillation. Rather, Malle and his esteemed cast have explored the ways in which the power of sexuality supercedes the rationality of logic, when mutual attraction is stronger than one's ability to resist temptation. Damage makes it clear that such an indulgence will always come at considerable cost. The DVD of this fine film includes a behind-the-scenes featurette and the original theatrical trailer. --Jeff Shannon

Damage is the believable story of a powerful man who loses his self control before an attractive, sexy woman. Irons finds Binoche hard to resist and keeps going back to her despite his knowledge that she is his son's girlfriend.
The movie carries on with steamy and erotic scenes as the two meet over and over again. His son finally finds them together and as he steps back literally, he falls over the bannister and gets killed.
Irons loses everything, his son, his wife and ... Read More

[BEWARE SPOILERS]
I don't know whether I've ever watched a film in which I identified more with all the characters than I did in this emotionally wrenching masterwork from the late, great Louis Malle. It is part of the genius of Malle to, like Shakespeare, make every character real and to see and present the depth of even those slightly off stage.
I could begin with the youngest, the daughter Sally (Gemma Clarke) who says little and is always at a slight distance, her serious ... Read More

In the beginning the sons girl friend of a short time just happens to go meet the sons father on her own, then stares at him in a intense way, very deranged scene, where is the plot???. I gave this movie
3 stars because the actors were so good.

Every time I watch a movie that is based on a book, I can't help but thinking that it just can't be fair to the book itself. There will always be a way or another to minimize either the story or the characters. Based on the book by Josephine Hart, this movie is actually enhancing the book in so many ways.
I saw the movie 14 years ago, when it was heavily criticized for the sexual scenes, the nudity, and the lack of dialogue. I loved it then and I come to love it even more now.

T. Rafferty's bitchy New Yorker review reminds me why I hate New York pretentiousness amongst critics who watch and grieve from their self-appointed piss-elegant armchairs, and why Amazon would give him the space to relieve himself here is beyond me.
DAMAGE is a slow film, and, indeed, the cold sterility of its upper class characters plays better in a big theater than on DVD. It remains engaging due to the solid performances, and the troubling theme of 'special love' being quite so dangerous ... Read More
