Echoes of Silence1965

"It is not very often that a new film-maker with so much promise comes on the scene... he makes his people come to life simply and believably–more believably than most of the people in the Chabrol and Truffaut cinema... the film has a thematic and formal beauty that is remarkable..." —Jonas Mekas, Village Voice

"This remarkable and sensitive film is one of the first American examples of a new existantialist humanism, devoid of certainty or illusion, infused with acceptance and compassion. A new talent is with us." —Amos Vogel, Director, The New York Film Festival
