TITLE |
David and Lisa (1963) |
|
DISABILITY |
Mental
(schizophrenia) |
|
Two mentally
disturbed teenagers find romance while living in |
|
a mental
hospital. I remember enjoying this film when I was a |
|
teenager.
I'm unsure I would now. I think I wouldn't be |
|
convinced by
its story that love will 'cure' mental illness. |
|
A well
meaning, independent production whose air of realism |
|
might now be
seen as fantasy and somewhat pretentious. |
|
But the main
characters are well acted. |
|
Remade as TV
Film in 1998. |
