Review of No One Would Tell (1996) by Danielle S — 24 Jun 2008
The Wonder Years" vet Fred Savage goes against type in a story about teenage dating abuse, but the impact of the casting is undermined by telepic's first scene showing his character's criminal behavior; the back story follows, and viewers are denied the chance to discover he's not a paragon of innocence.
Savage is menacing, thanks to his physical size, and has his eerie moments, but mainly comes off as a wide-eyed zombie. Cameron is realistic as the gullible and willful teen. The highest acting marks go to Heather McComb, who's able to take up the emotional slack in the script and performances.
