La voce dell'innocenza

I realize this is an older movie, but the acting was insincere, almost laughable, especially Brad Davis' acting, embarrassingly so. Jill clayburgh wasn't wonderful either; she and Davis were so over the top melodramatic. The directing was very poorly done. The entire production including acting, lighting, and set dressing was very low budget. The best acting in the movie was done by little 4 year old Joseph Mazzello.

The sordid and serious subject matter deserved a better telling of this true story. Perhaps this entire story should be updated and told again in a better production with a better director and better actors.

This was one of the best lifetime movies I've ever seen. It was kind of tough to watch, though. I was really impressed with the acting of the kids. I wondered if they understood what they were talking about. At the end of the movie they had a were they are now thing, so I'm guessing it was a true story, which makes it extremely disturbing.

Dear Lord, what a horribly done film on child abuse. This production represents why Lifetime Movies get such a bad rap. This subject has been represented better since this time, but the direction, the melodramatic acting, the soundtrack is dismal. Brad Davis is horrible in this film and Jill Clayburgh looks embarrassed to be in this 1985 film. It is 35 years later so I have to give it a bit of a pass. But not much.

Get to the point. The movie is not able to get the Point across. It's unrealistic and unconventional. This movie should never have been made on such a touchy subject of child abuse. There's no way the young victims gave their stories in adult dialogues

Besides the performance...

it's difficult to think that the techniques used to questions those young victims at the time actually happened. Yelling at the children... Thank goodness times have changed and victims are more protected.

For a 90's movie I'm so surprised that it wasn't well thought out. And for such a controversial subject. I believe a lot of this story didn't happen and they came up with most. It's actually sad.

Unlike the McMartin trial, there are no questions here. These folks are pure and simple child molesters. A very good adaption from a very good, large volume, so kudos to the screenwriter for boiling it down. Clayburgh and Davis are great as child shrinks. Again, character drives the story of child molestation in a daycare home. See it and weep, and learn.
