Description
 
Danny Glover and Angela Bassett star in this heart-wrenching adaptation of       Athol Fugard's play about a couple's struggle to survive and not let hatred      destroy them as they live a life of constant displacement and oppression under   Apartheid. Through flashbacks we see the happiness they once had and how it    was taken away from them. Glover "...finds every nuance of Boesman's pride and frustration as well as his deeply buried, nearly evaporated reservoir of       tenderness. And Ms. Bassett stokes Lena's pain to such white heat that the       screen fairly burns" (A.O. Scott, The New York Times). The last film     directed by John Berry, who began his career in Hollywood (He Ran All the   Way) but spent much of his career in France and elsewhere after being       blacklisted during the McCarthy era. In English.                                 John Berry---France/South Africa---2000---84 mins.
