Description

Child’s Cry 1986
1h 40m | Thriller | 9 February 1986 (USA)
Storyline:A social worker (Lindsay Wagner) starts working with a shy, withdrawn 6 year old (Taliesin Jaffe) whom she believes is the victim of sexual abuse.User review:“Child’s Cry” is one mixed bag of a movie as for everything which is good there is something which is not so much bad but just not as good. It makes it strangely fascinating because you are never sure as to what you are going to get, one moment this storyline of child abuse is sensitive and touching but then the next it seems cliche and a bit cheesy. You also wonder where it is going because here we have the question over whether Peter Coyote is playing a child abusing parent or is this going to evolve with his character and Lindsay Wagner’s going to become an item as it has this softness as well. It is why it is a really mixed bag of a movie which in truth keeps you on your toes.
