Silent Twins: Without My Shadow (TV Movie 1994) ⭐ 7.3 | Documentary
Silent Twins: Without My Shadow: Directed by Olivia Lichtenstein. Without my shadow is a documentary about the Gibbons twins who are popularly referred to as the silent twins. This short documentary was shot after June was released from the Broadmoor mental health facility & contains the views of the different personalities who knew the twins. Though not as detailed as some of the written works about the twins, this documentary is a great watch if you are curious about the subject and have read the book by Marjorie Wallace.
