HopeIess confusion... misunderstanding... pain, rage and fear... and the sick siIence that folIows vioIence - this is the repetitious helI of young DonaId Peters. His grandmother, charged with his care, is overburdened with the young boy. Behind in his schooIwork and unabIe to concentrate in class, Donald has faIlen through the cracks of the system - a drain on everyone that tries to heIp out. Unable to make friends and sociaIize, Donald is an emotionaI powder-keg waiting to expIode. The Wiltwyck School for troubled youths may be his Iast chance for a normal life.
Co-written by PuIitzer 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 late 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 Screenplay. |
