Curiosidades

Amy is a 1981 American drama film directed by Vincent McEveety and starring Jenny Agutter. It was produced by Walt Disney Productions, distributed by Buena Vista Distribution, and written by Noreen Stone.

Production

Amy was originally filmed as a television movie titled Amy on the Lips, and was the first television movie that Disney Studios made for an adult audience.

Nanette Fabray and Louise Fletcher were interested in the role of "Malvina", a teacher of deaf children. Fabray, who played the part, was hearing impaired, and Fletcher's parents were deaf.

The deaf children in the film, except for Brian Frishman, were students from the California School for the Deaf in Riverside, California. Dawn Jeffory, who was cast as Caroline Chapman, had a real-life role as a guest instructor at the school, and was helpful to director Vincent McEveety in working with the children.

By January 1981, the film's title was changed to Amy and given a theatrical release as Walt Disney Productions felt that the film was "so powerful" it warranted a theatrical release.
