Installment #40 in Monolisticle's Ongoing Campaign Against the "Internet of Endless Listicles."
The film The Silent Child is 20 minutes of poignancy and wonderfulness.
It won an Academy Award. But unfortunately it won in a film category that few people ever actually watch. Which means you probably haven’t seen it (I get it, I get, you’re busy).
I could go on and on about how terrific the film is, but I’d be cutting into the 20 minutes it would take you to watch it—and there’s nothing that I could ever write that could possibly be more worthy of your time than experiencing this film.
The Silent Child was written by the multi-talented Rachel Shenton, who also happens to star in the film alongside first-time actor Maisie Sly, who will grab your heart, turn it inside-out, and put it back in your chest changed forever.
Rachel Shenton also stars in the highly-recommended PBS series All Creatures Great And Small, which I wrote about in The Most Wholesome Series On TV (And Much-Welcomed Respite From All The Things).
