Mandy

Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

Mandy is a 1952 British drama film about a family's struggle to give their deaf daughter a better life. It was directed by Alexander Mackendrick and is based on the novel The Day Is Ours by Hilda Lewis. It stars Phyllis Calvert, Jack Hawkins and Terence Morgan, and features the first film appearance by Jane Asher. In the US the film was released as The Story of Mandy, and later was sold to television as Crash of Silence. A high proportion of the film looks at educational methods for deaf people in the 1950s and focuses on oralism, a now controversial approach which relies on teaching the child to speak and lipread and discourages sign language.
