Dead Silence – Flammen in der Stille (TV Movie 1997)
50KDead Silence – Flammen in der Stille: Directed by Daniel Petrie Jr.. With James Garner, Kim Coates, Marlee Matlin, Lolita Davidovich. A veteran FBI agent negotiates the release of a bus-load of hearing-impaired school-children taken hostage by 3 desperate escaped convicts.
“I have always been a huge fan of James Garner. His movie work at times has been as good as his u0026quot;Rockford Filesu0026quot; TV show, and this is one of the best examples. I was not familiar with the novel by Deaver on which it is based, but I will say that the story does not disappoint. The actors are all excellent, and there is a good deal of suspense. I disagree with some other reviews here on Garneru0026#39;s performance, as I bought the DVD largely because of his role. Another good movie he did near the same time was u0026quot;Fire In The Skyu0026quot;, which fans should also check out. This movie was filmed in Canada, near where I live, and you can somehow always tell a Canadian production just by the look. Perhaps the portrayal of America never feels quite genuine.”
