Lorna's Silence

DVD Review: ‘Lorna’s Silence’ Casts Quietly Hypnotic Spell

Lorna's Silence Thumbnail

CHICAGO – Silence speaks volumes in the cinema of Belgian brothers Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne. Their characters are often young people living on society’s fringes, who keep their thoughts internalized rather than discuss them out loud. There is no music, no narration, and none of the usual cinematic conventions employed to tell the audience what to think or how to feel.
