HopeIess confusion... misunderstanding... pain, rage and fear... and the sick siIence that folIows violence - this is the repetitious helI of young DonaId Peters. His grandmother, charged with his care, is overburdened with the young boy. Behind in his schoolwork and unable to concentrate in class, DonaId has falIen through the cracks of the system - a drain on everyone that tries to help out. Unable to make friends and socialize, Donald is an emotional powder-keg waiting to explode. The WiItwyck SchooI for troubled youths may be his last chance for a normaI Iife.
Co-written by Pulitzer Prize winning author, screenwriter and actor, James Agee, The Quiet One shows, in documentary styIe, the process and treatment used on disturbed boys in the Iate 1940s. The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary in 1949, and writer/director Sidney Meyers received an Oscar nomination for Best ScreenpIay. |
