I was curious as to why there was only one other person in the theatre with me to view “The Quiet” until I sat through it. The incestuous theme creates a totally depressing atmosphere. Put that together with a teenager that lost her mother at age seven and her father when the film begins and you have the ingredients for a totally morose and slow moving film. There is nothing to enjoy here, just upsetting images of self absorbed teenagers, a sick father and a mother too strung out on painkillers to care anymore.
It is so bad, “mums” the word about “The Quiet”.
