The Quiet

This erotic and suspenseful tale of sex, lies and betrayal stars Elisha Cuthbert as Nina Deer, a pretty cheerleader whose life is turned upside-down by the arrival of her parents’ godchild Dot, a deaf and mute girl recently orphaned by her father’s death. Although Nina looks upon Dot’s deafness with disdain, her family and friends develop a strange attraction to her, and Dot soon becomes a sounding board for everyone’s heaviest burdens. But when Nina becomes convinced that Dot is hiding a few secrets of her own, she decides to confess a family secret so disturbing it cannot be ignored.

    Not for me

    The story revolves around Dot, a deaf mute. She is sent to live with her godparents and their daughter Nina, where she discovers the secrets of her new family. She learns of an incestuous relationship between Nina and her father, which has driven Nina into a mad state, and led her to plan the murder of her father. Knowing that Dot cannot (allegedly) speak or hear, and thus cannot tell anyone, Nina confides in her the actions of her father and her plans to murder him.I think most people will rent this to see Cuthbert but you don't see any flesh so it will probably dissapoint.

    Customer Review

    I watched this film on the strength of other reviews.....pleased I did.

    It is a dark and disturbing drama of a seriously dysfunctional but wealthy American family who 'take in' a deaf/mute young lady and bring her into their arms.....sort of!

    Well acted,atmospheric and very,very disturbing.

    Highly recommended.
