A Child Is Waiting
(1963)

Documentary-like
This film is a revealing look at the method of treatment of mentally impaired in the 1960s. There are times where the students at the school appear to be stereotyped, but it is strangely convincing. The scenes in the asylum are very distrurbing and to a point frightning because you begin to wonder were these are real people or only actors. It is so convincing that you begin to wonder about these peoples' lives and if they are still alive. The character of Reuben ans Dr. Clark are totally convincing and thuroughly sympathetic.
