Disgrace

The National Arts Festival has bagged the local premiere of the movie version of JM Coetzee's novel Disgrace. Starring John Malkovich as Professor David Lurie, the Australian-financed film won an International Critics Award at last year's Toronto Film Festival in Canada.



But here's the frustration; although the script calls for the professor to retire to a remote farm in the Eastern Cape, the movie shot in the Cedarburg. In America, that's called Runaway Production..... Which could in itself be termed something of a disgrace, I suppose.

Check out the movie during the festival.
