Three women, all strangers to each other, meet in a dress boutique. One of the three is approached by the male proprietor as she is shoplifting a garment. When he approaches her the other two join her in beating the man to death. Other female shoppers ignore the whole situation and leave when the crime is complete. The court appoints a female psychriatrist to examine the women; contrary to public opinion the psychiatrist finds they are not insane but implies the rage expressed by the crime is a result of the male dominated society. An interesting study of extreme behavior. The prisoner's cells were a revelation.

| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThe uncompromising polemic at least isn't dogmatic. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyGorris' polemic feminist film is schematic but it raises some interesting questions. |
| User ReviewMarsha WLoved it, used it in my women's studies classes. Have your women friends over to share a bottle of wine or three, and watch this film together. |
| User ReviewScott RSo much Mansplaining! Loved all of the unspoken communication here, the comradery of the women together came from a shared understanding of oppression. If I was a man watching this film, I might not get it. |
| User ReviewBjörn CDie Stille um Christine M. - Der Debuetfilm von Marleen Gorris aus dem Jahr 1982 gilt als Meilenstein der feministischen Filmgeschichte. Dementsprechend hoch waren meine Erwartungen als ich ihn nun 28 Jahre nach Erscheinen zum ersten Mal sah. Meine Erwartungen wurden erfuellt. Der Film erzaehlt auf sehr beruehrende und gut inszenierte Weise wie Frauen erwachen und sich aus ihrer Opferrolle befreien. Die klare Botschaft "Frauen wehrt euch und schliesst euch zusammen!" macht Mut und hat an Aktualitaet leider nichts verloren. |
| User ReviewMatt MA female psychiatrist must establish whether three women unknown to each other who murdered a male boutique owner are mentally sane. A feminist reflection on frustrations and unhappiness, can be praised for character development though it is not as impressive in plot and resolution. |
| User ReviewAndy CReally falls apart at the end to a glorious, nonsensical extent. |
