Eclectic versatile actor Nicolas Cage has several movies scheduled for release this year. The newest trailer for "Vengeance: a love story" (Saturn Films, Cage’s production company/Patriot Pictures) is currently available on You Tube.
Joyce Carol Oates dark novel comes to cinema
The movie is based on the 2003 novel “Rape: A Love Story” by Joyce Carol Oates. It’s a dark, vigilante thriller about a woman who is a rape victim who has been brutally abused by four drug addicts. The 12-year-old daughter flags down Nicolas Cage, who plays a Niagara Falls Police Detective, John Dromoor.
He is assigned to investigate the case and protect the victimized mother. They take a huge risk by caring for the men after they are released from jail on bail. The mother vows to make the guilty men pay and becomes a fierce advocate for her daughter. The parents of the rapists end up hiring one of the top defense criminal lawyers; Jay Kirkpatrick, played by Don Johnson, who tries to shift the focus of the evidence away from the defendants and puts the victims on trial; even though the girl’s testimony should be enough evidence for the men to be convicted. Detective Dromoor decides to take matters into his own hands to protect the lives of the three women.
The screenplay was written by John Mankiewicz and is directed by Johnny Martin.
Nicolas Cage was originally going to direct the film but dropped out of directing suddenly. The film was shot in Atlanta, GA.
