无声的崩溃

　　Mackendrick introduced a new strain of realism into his films with this moving story of a deaf child whose refusal to reach outside her cocoon of silence traumatizes her middle-class parents and threatens to destroy their unstable relationship. The first in Mackendrick's trilogy about precocious and destructive children, Mandy is an absolutely fascinating melding of The Miracle Worker's semi-documentary theater and Brief Encounter's fractured and intensely first person melodrama of marital dissatisfaction. 译文(2): 麦肯德里克在他的电影中引入了一种新的现实主义风格，这个感人的故事讲述了一个失聪的孩子拒绝走出沉默的茧，她的中产阶级父母受到了创伤，并威胁要破坏他们不稳定的关系。在麦肯德里克关于早熟和破坏性儿童的三部曲中，第一部《曼迪》绝对是奇迹创造者的半纪录片剧场和《邂逅短暂》中关于婚姻不满的破碎和强烈的第一人称情节剧的完美结合。
