Driven by Isabel Coixet's visually assured and deeply observant direction, "Elegy" charts the passionate relationship between a celebrated college professor and a young woman whose beauty both ravishes and destabilizes him. As their intimate connection transforms them—more than either could imagine—a charged sexual contest evolves into an indelible love story. With humanistic warmth, wry wit and erotic intensity, "Elegy" explores the power of beauty to blind, to reveal and to transform.

Movie Review
It's the sex film we've all been waiting for: Penelope Cruz and Sir Ben Kingsley, together at last. Yes, it's steamy. Yes, it's sensual. Yes, it's Elegy. A drama about a much older man who loves one of his former students, Elegy is a well-acted but ultimately forgettable tale of "exploration."
