Movie Reviews of Mockingbird Don't SingMovie Review: Mockingbird Don't Sing Summary: 5 Stars
I was always intrigued about this story so was delighted to see it playing at the Orlando Film Festival. The film was well written with what must have been a tremendous amount of research. Despite the small budget and difficult nature of the subject matter, it was very tastefully realized. The costumes really nailed the era. It was especially fun to see Sean Young decked out in her period (70's) attire. Michael Lerner is always a pleasure and the young actress Tara was amazing! Definitely a story that needed to be made.
Summary of Mockingbird Don't SingFrom the age of one and a half to thirteen, Katie, was imprisoned by her parents. Locked in a room, tied and immobile, bound to a "potty-chair", Katie endured years of isolated silence punctuated by brutality. When Katie?s case finally came to public attention she was moved to a hospital in Los Angeles, where it was discovered she had never been taught to speak. Katie was an anomaly, a modern day Wild Child. Medical and psychological doctors descended on the girl in droves, often with selfish motivations in this heart-breaking story. With stunning care to detail Mockingbird Don?t Sing tells Katie?s story of imprisonment, discovery and her difficult road to joining the human family as a beautiful young woman.
