Silent Fall

Dr. Jake Rainer:
You're going to shoot me? How are you going to explain that?

Sylvie Warden:
I'll think of something

Dr. Jake Rainer:
Abuse victims are always the best actors. They have to be, to live their whole lives with the pain and shame pretending there is nothing wrong. It's the greatest performance of all

Tim Warden:
[impersonating her husband] You look ridiculous

Karen Rainer:
Tim... use you own voice

Tim Warden:
[last lines, in his own voice] You look ridiculous

Dr. Jake Rainer:
Two thousand years ago we worshiped them [autistics] as gods. Three hundred years ago we burned them at the stake, as witches. Now we treat them with drugs... and therapy.

"You know I figured out something about death... it's contagious. I know that sounds crazy but, it's like when people you love die, you feel like you should've died too. And you don't want anybody to know that you survived. No one." - Sylvie, Silent Fall (1994)
