My Grading System

A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).

Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.

Damage (1992)

A sexual charged film about a father having an affair with his son's fiancee.  Of course the son isn't really that central to the story, it's the unspeakable obsession Jeremy Irons has with Juliette Binoche and she toward him that drives the narrative.  Their chemistry is dangerous and impossible to ignore.  Based on the book by Josephine Hart.  Grade: A-
