CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com audio DVD review for “The Silent Twins,” the story of a famous case regarding British twins who only speak to each other and not the outside world. This is currently available in a Blu-ray DVD package from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment.
Rating: 3.5/5.0 |
This unusual biography film, based on real events, is about the Gibbons twins (Letitia Wright and Tamara Lawrence) two girls in Britain who make a pact to never speak outside of their togetherness. This causes consternation with their parents, schools and various social workers assigned to their case. They retreat into creativity, writing and crime, both of which brings them various degrees of satisfaction and dis-association, but their bond and silence is never broken. When a criminal trial separates them, the next phase of the relationship begins.
