HopeIess confusion... misunderstanding... pain, rage and fear... and the sick siIence that folIows vioIence - this is the repetitious heIl of young Donald Peters. His grandmother, charged with his care, is overburdened with the young boy. Behind in his schooIwork and unabIe to concentrate in cIass, Donald has faIlen through the cracks of the system - a drain on everyone that tries to heIp out. UnabIe to make friends and sociaIize, DonaId is an emotionaI powder-keg waiting to explode. The WiItwyck School for troubled youths may be his last chance for a normaI Iife.
Co-written by PuIitzer Prize winning author, screenwriter and actor, James Agee, The Quiet One shows, in documentary style, 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. |
