About The Silent Alarm
Set in the bucolic suburbia of the early Sixties, a door-to-door salesman of home security systems, who turns out to be a con-man and thief, charms his way into the life of a single suburban mother, much to the alarm of her son. Presented with little dialog.
Directed by Rob Morrow, The Silent Alarm leans on a strong ensemble — Jesse Lee Soffer, Scott Renderer — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1993.
