A flawed, often obnoxious screenplay with regular bits of brilliance and grace sprinkled throughout. One of those movies where I love what it’s about, but less impressed with how it goes about expressing it.

The Silence 1963
In a world of sin, where are we to turn for virtue? Education may provide us some understanding, but it is nevertheless an understanding of a harsh, cruel world—after all, Ester is highly educated, yet still adrift and weak. She has been supplied with no justification, but merely an explanation of the corruption that surrounds her. Art seems like a healthy option, but if art is a reflection of the artist, is it not then a reflection of a sinner?…

Whooshhhhhh.......
