    Editorial Reviews

    Award-winning short filmmaker Jessica Sharzer makes her feature debut with the teen drama Speak, based on the young-adult novel by Laurie Halse Anderson. Kristen Stewart stars as high school freshman Melinda, who has lost her ability to speak. Ever since a traumatic event that occurred at a party over the summer, she has chosen to remain silent. She's abandoned by her friends, while her mother Joyce (Elizabeth Perkins) is too wrapped up in her own problems to notice. By recalling the details of the past situation, it becomes clear that a date rape occurred. Yet no one has offered her support in order to deal with the psychological consequences. Eventually her art teacher Mr. Freeman (Steve Zahn) reaches out, helping her develop ways to express herself. Also starring Hallee Hirsh and Eric Lively. Speak premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2004 as part of the American Spectrum competition. Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide

    September 08, 2009: At first, I was skeptical when I saw that this movie was playing on Lifetime. I was like omg I totally read this book so I might as well DVR it. When I watched it, I was surprised. Kristen looked so grown up and I was incredibly surprised by the maturity of her role. She was talking about being raped for gods sake. It was purely amazing.
