Speak is a 2004 American independent film based on the award-winning novel of the same name by Laurie Halse Anderson. It stars a then 13-year-old Kristen Stewart as Melinda Sordino, a high school freshman who practically stops talking after being raped by a senior student. The film is told through Melinda's eyes and is wrought with her sardonic humor and blunt honesty. It was broadcast on Showtime and Lifetime in 2005.

Plot[link]

Melinda Sordino (Kristen Stewart) starts out her freshman year in high school being labeled a "squealer" for calling the police to a house party the previous summer at Kyle Rodger's, the brother of Randi Rodger (Caitlyn Folley). Her real reason for calling 9-1-1 was that she was raped at the party by a senior, Andy Evans (Eric Lively).

Melinda has been so traumatized by her rape that she cannot find the words to tell anybody what happened to her and becomes mute. Melinda is shunned by her friends from 8th grade, Nicole (Tyanna Rolley), Ivy (Megan Pillar), her best friend Rachel Bruin (Hallee Hirsh), and is forced to deal with social rejection.

Melinda is unable to tell her parents about the experience, and although her parents notice a change in their daughter, (as well as her grades) they are unable to determine the cause. Her mother, Joyce (Elizabeth Perkins), is overworked and too busy to extract more than one-word answers from Melinda. Her father, Jack (D. B. Sweeney), is struggling with unemployment and also has little time to devote to his troubled daughter.

Although Melinda does not speak to many people in the film, she has plenty of thoughts that are often filled with sardonic humor. In addition to Melinda's social problems, her teachers are insufferable. Mr. Neck (Robert John Burke), constantly bullies Melinda, and her English teacher, only referred to as "Hair Woman" (Leslie Lyles), refuses to make eye contact with students. Melinda's difficulty in talking to other students and her teachers consequently results in her grades plummeting, compared to her last year.

When her parents see her report card, they prompt her to see Mr Neck, who tells her to write an essay on any history topic. When failing to read this aloud to her class, she gets sent to the office of the school principal (Tony Roseboro). Melinda is nice to a new student named Heather Billings (Allison Siko), who claims to be Melinda's "friend," but Heather abandons Melinda when the chance for social advancement arises. The only other student with whom Melinda has a positive experience is her lab partner Dave Petrakis (Michael Angarano), who has successfully managed to keep from affiliating himself with a clique.

Melinda's high point each day comes in her art class taught by a free-spirited teacher named Mr. Freeman (Steve Zahn). He encourages student expression, and Melinda begins to take his words to heart. Mr. Freeman allows Melinda to spend her nightmarish lunchtimes in his classroom, rather than in the cafeteria. As time progresses, Melinda discovers an unused storage closet that she turns into her personal place of refuge and, eventually, revelation. Melinda turns all of her negative feelings and social difficulties into creative expression. While in her secret place, Melinda constantly thinks about the night of the party, and deals with her inner demons.

As the year progresses, Melinda begins a painfully slow recapture of her confidence, with some help from Dave and Mr. Freeman. Rachel starts dating Andy, (the boy who raped Melinda), and as the only other person who knows about the event, Melinda fears that Rachel will suffer the same fate. Melinda finds Rachel at the library and tells her the truth about what happened at the party by writing it on paper.

Though at first Rachel doesn't believe her, calling Melinda jealous of her and Andy, Rachel does eventually confront Andy about the accusations, and word gets out about the rape. Upon hearing this Andy becomes angry, breaks up with Rachel and goes to confront Melinda. She first stands up to Mr. Neck and her social-climbing "friend" Heather. On the last day, Andy finds her in her closet while she is packing up, threatening and beating her.

In fear of her life, Melinda fights back and is able to subdue him by splashing aerosol chemicals from a jug into his eyes, blinding him. Soon after, the commotion catches the attention of a few members of the girls' field hockey team, including Nicole, who just happened to walk by the closet and then confront Andy, seeing that Melinda has overpowered him, with a glass shard to his neck.

On the way back from the hospital after being treated for her injuries, Melinda rolls down the window of the car, breathing in deeply. She finally finds the strength to tell her mother the truth about what happened at the party. Although it is clear that Melinda will still need time to fully recover from her ordeals, this is a significant and empowering event in her life, as she finally finds the courage to speak.

Production[link]

Producer and screenwriter Annie Young Frisbie read the novel and successfully made a bid to get the rights to a film version. Production took place in Columbus, Ohio because a production partner, Matthew Myers, was relocating there with his wife.

Film production took only 21 days in August 2003. Flooding during an especially heavy summer rain caused filming to be temporarily postponed and during that time author Laurie Halse Anderson visited the set with her daughter. Anderson herself cameos in the film as the lunch lady who gives Melinda the mashed potatoes.

The school scenes for the movie were shot at Eastmoor Academy on the east side of Columbus.

Reception[link]

The New York Times was skeptical of the film. Though reviewer Neil Genzlinger praised the work of Stewart and Steve Zahn, he concluded that, overall, the cast was populated with "dismaying caricature[s], so much so that it costs the movie some credibility," and that the film "comes nowhere near capturing the wise, subtle tone of the book."^[1]

Differences from the novel[link]

• In the novel, Melinda meets Heather when Heather finds a seat in the auditorium. In the film, they meet on the bus. The auditorium scene is cut altogether.
• Melinda does not get a ride home from Mr. Freeman when it is harsh outside, nor does she skip school in the winter.
• At the end of the novel, Melinda speaks to Mr. Freeman about her being raped, whereas in the movie, she tells her mom about it.
• In the novel, Andy tries to rape Melinda a second time, whereas in the film, he physically assaults her instead.
• In the novel and film, Melinda was hit by mashed potatoes in the cafeteria on the first day. However, the book describes that this was an accident, while the film portrays it to be blatantly done on purpose.
• The film mentions the story taking place somewhere in the Midwest. The novel takes place in Syracuse, Anderson's hometown.
• In the novel, she is raped outside in the trees at the party. In the film, she is raped in Andy's car. This was changed because Kristen Stewart had an allergic reaction to grass during the shoot.
• In the novel, Melinda spends much more time with Heather, including accompanying her to her modeling shoots which makes her feel bad about her appearance, and by helping Heather with Martha projects during her "trial" period for the clan. Melinda lets Heather take all the credit for the projects to look better in the eyes of the Marthas, but later on, as in the film, refuses to help Heather decorate for prom when she's left in a lurch.
• In the book, Melinda first tries to send an anonymous letter to Rachel about Andy, saying to be careful, because he "attacked a ninth-grader last year." Rachel, confused and angry, ignores the letter. In the film, Melinda skips straight to telling Rachel in person.
• The film downplays Melinda's surprising talent for tennis, which becomes a much bigger deal in the book than in the movie.
• The film gets rid of the David Petrakis/Mr. Neck subplot, reducing it to a single scene of protest in the first class of the year. In the novel, the war between Petrakis and Mr. Neck goes on throughout the book and eventually involves surveillance of Mr. Neck's lectures, formal complaints to the principal, and the threat of lawsuit. This helps inspire Melinda towards her suffragette protest as well as her potential attraction towards David Petrakis.
• In the novel, Melinda begins cutting classes at a donut shop and then the mall. Her class-cutting becomes a habit, eventually leading her to the hospital where she experiments in different waiting rooms to kill time, before having a sobering moment in which she realizes the inappropriateness of it all. In the movie, Melinda cuts class once, going straight to the hospital.
• In the novel, Melinda speaks less, and therefore the story takes place almost entirely in her head. The film does away with the constant narration.
• In the book, when Andy tries to rape Melinda a second time, she holds a shard of broken glass up to his neck and says "I said no," but never actually hurts him. In the movie, she uses the glass shard and throws aerosol in his eyes.
• In the film, all that Melinda writes on the bathroom stall is about the "exchange students ruining the country," whereas in the book, she writes about Andy Evans and other girls add to the (her) writing.
• In the film, Ivy hangs out with the Marthas; she doesn't in the book.
• In the film, Mr. Freeman leaves at the end of the school year. In the book he stays at the school.
• In the novel, the story of Melinda being raped is told all at once, as Melinda sits outside and thinks about it. In the movie, a few flashbacks of the night of the party are shown.

Shahid Kapoor (born 25 February 1981^[1]) is an Indian actor who appears in Bollywood films. He is also a trained dancer.

Starting off his career by working in music videos and advertisements, Kapoor made his Bollywood debut as a background dancer in Subhash Ghai's Taal (1999). Four years later, he made his acting debut in Ishq Vishk (2003) and won a Filmfare Award for Best Male Debut for his performance. Following through with films like Fida (2004) and Shikhar (2005), he had his first major commercial success with Sooraj R. Barjatya's Vivah (2006), his biggest commercial success, and followed it up with Jab We Met (2007) and Kaminey (2009), both of which earned him Best Actor nominations at the Filmfare ceremony.

Early life[link]

Kapoor was born to actor Pankaj Kapoor and actor/classical dancer Neelima Azeem on 25 February 1981. Kapoor's parents divorced when he was 3. After the divorce, he lived with his mother and maternal grandparents in Junaghad. He shared a good relationship with his father and stepmother Supriya Pathak. As far as his religious affiliation is concerned, Kapoor has stated in an interview that while his father is a Sikh and his mother is a Muslim, both his parents have taught him that he "should look at all religions without hatred and have compassion for every human being whatever his religion may be," saying that he believes that "there is one God up above."^[2]

As a child, he studied in Rajhans Vidyalaya, Mumbai. He has three half siblings: a sister named Sanah and brothers named Ruhaan and Ishaan Khattar; Ishaan acted with him in the movie Vaah! Life Ho To Aisi (2005). His maternal grandfather was Anwar Azeem, a noted Marxist journalist and author from Bihar.^[3] His great great grandfather was the film director, screenwriter, Urdu novelist and journalist Khwaja Ahmad Abbas more popularly known as K. A. Abbas. His mother Neelima is the daughter of Anwar Azeem, one of the greatest Urdu writers. K.A. Abbas in turn was the grandson of Hali, the chief protégé of Urdu poet, Ghalib.^[4][5]

Career[link]

Early career, until 2005[link]

Before starting off his career as an actor, Kapoor worked in several music videos and ads, including the Pepsi commercial with Shahrukh Khan, Kajol and Rani Mukerji post Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998) and the music video Aankhon Me Tera Hi Chehra by the Aryans along with Hrishitaa Bhatt. While doing so, he decided to join the Shiamak Davar Institute for the Performing Arts (SDIPA), where he was later seen in Subhash Ghai's film Taal (1999) as a background dancer in the song "Kahin Aag Lage Lag Jawe" along with actress Aishwarya Rai.

In 2003, Kapoor played his first leading role as Rajiv Mathur, a carefree young man in Ken Ghosh's moderately successful love story Ishq Vishk.^[6] Appearing opposite Amrita Rao and Shenaz Treasurywala, the film was well received by audiences and Kapoor's performance earned him a Filmfare Best Male Debut Award. Film critic Taran Adarsh from indiaFM wrote, "Shahid Kapoor is an actor to watch. He has all the qualities to hit the top slot. Not only is he good looking, but he is an amazing performer as well. Very original as a performer [sic], the youngster has handled the dramatic and emotional moments with flourish. He is an exceptional dancer as well. All he needs to do is pick and choose his forthcoming assignments with care, so that the journey to the top slot is minus hiccups."^[7]

The following year, Kapoor joined once again with director Ken Ghosh in the thriller Fida, where he co-starred alongside Kareena Kapoor and Fardeen Khan. The film failed to do well at the box office, yet Kapoor's performance was praised.^[8] The Tribune concluded, "...Shahid Kapoor shines in his role. He looks fresh. As an impulsive emotional and innocent guy, who is sucked into crime because of these very qualities, he manages to evoke your sympathies."^[9] He then appeared in the romantic comedy Dil Maange More opposite Soha Ali Khan, Tulip Joshi, and Ayesha Takia. His performance opened to mixed reviews; Rediff.com wrote that "Shahid tends to imitate Shahrukh Khan a lot. He does it well in some scenes, overdoes it in others..."^[10]

Featuring in three more films in 2005, success continued to elude Kapoor.^[11] However, his performance as Jaidev Vardhan, a man who is sucked into the world of money and greed in John M. Matthan's drama Shikhar was critically acclaimed, earning Kapoor his first Star Screen Award for Best Actor nomination. According to IndiaFM, "Shahid Kapoor is only improving with every film. He matches up to Ajay in almost all sequences."^[12]

Breakthrough, 2006–present[link]

In 2006, Kapoor starred in 36 China Town. Revolving around the story of seven individuals and a murder, the film became a moderate success despite receiving mixed reviews from critics.^[13] Shortly after the release of the film, Kapoor's second release of the year, Priyadarshan's comedy Chup Chup Ke, followed. The film became a moderate success at the box office.^[13]

Kapoor's last release of 2006 was Sooraj R. Barjatya's romantic drama Vivah, a film depicting the journey of two individuals from engagement to marriage. Co-starring alongside Amrita Rao, the film was received favourably by most critics and became one of the highest grossing films of the year as well as Kapoor's second biggest commercial success to date.^[13][14] Kapoor's performance earned his second consecutive nomination for Best Actor at the Star Screen Awards. Taran Adarsh wrote, "Shahid Kapoor performs like never before. If he was super-cool in Ishq Vishk and showed flashes of brilliance in Fida, you've to watch him in Vivah to see his growth as a tremendous actor. He is exceptional in emotional sequences."^[15]

During the summer of 2006, Kapoor embarked on his first world tour, the Rockstars Concert, along with Bollywood stars, Salman Khan, Kareena Kapoor, John Abraham, Esha Deol, Mallika Sherawat and Zayed Khan.

In 2007, Kapoor appeared in two movies. His first release was Ahmed Khan's Fool and Final. The film received negative reviews and failed to do well at the box office; Kapoor's performance in the film did not receive positive reviews.^[16][17] His next release, Imtiaz Ali's comedy-romance Jab We Met, opposite Kareena Kapoor, became one of the biggest hits of the year.^[16] The film tells the story of two people with two very different personalities meeting each other on a train and how they fall in love eventually. Kapoor portrayed the character of Aditya Kashyap, a dejected young industrialist full of angst and despair. The film was well-received by critics and Kapoor's performance earned him several nominations for Best Actor at a number of award ceremonies, including Filmfare. Rajeev Masand from CNN-IBN noted, "Despite the risk of being overshadowed by Kareena, his co-star in the film, Shahid Kapur leaves an indelible impression with a performance that is understated and mature, and indeed the perfect foil to Kareena's boisterousness."^[18] Kapoor then appeared in the Aziz Mirza-directed film, Kismat Konnection (2008), opposite Vidya Balan. Upon release, the film under-performed at the box office.^[19]

In 2009, Kapoor portrayed the dual role of twins Charlie and Guddu in the caper thriller, Kaminey. Directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, the film was a critical and commercial success and received mostly positive reviews. Kapoor's performance was also critically acclaimed. Rajeev Masand from CNN-IBN wrote, "Shahid Kapur rises to the challenge of creating two entirely different characters out of Charlie and Guddu, and delivers a credible performance as each. Breaking out of his chocolate-boy image, he gives evidence of his potential when trusted with well-written roles."^[20] Later in the year, Kapoor appeared alongside Rani Mukerji in Anurag Singh's romantic comedy Dil Bole Hadippa!, which failed to do well at the Indian box office.

In 2010, Kapoor appeared in Ken Ghosh's film Chance Pe Dance opposite Genelia D'Souza, in which he portrayed the role of a struggling Bollywood actor.^[21] The movie received poor review from critics, but Kapoor's performance was well received.^[22][23] He then starred in Ahmed Khan's Paathshala in a extended cameo alongside Ayesha Takia and Nana Patekar. This was then followed by Yash Raj Films Badmaash Company which was released on 7th May 2010 and opened mixed to positive reviews and was an above average success at the box office and his performance in the film was received well too. His last release of the year was the long delayed Satish Kaushik's Milenge Milenge.

In 2011, Kapoor appeared opposite Sonam Kapoor in Mausam (2011), a movie directed and written by Pankaj Kapoor. The film received mixed to positive response from critics, however his performance was generally well received. Critic Taran Adarsh wrote, "Shahid gives his all to this role, submitting himself to his director-father to mould him the way he chooses to. It won't be erroneous to state that Shahid surpasses all his previous performances, including the one in Kaminey, with this film. The film also marks the coming of age of this actor."^[24] His upcoming venture, Teri Meri Kahaani opposite Priyanka Chopra is expected for release on 22 June, 2012.

Personal life[link]

Kapoor identifies himself as a vegetarian.^[25] While filming Fida (2004), he began dating Kareena Kapoor.^[26] They separated during the filming of Jab We Met (2007).^[27] According to him, they remained on good terms, with him saying, "I wish her all the happiness in the world. I have great respect for her. She is a wonderful girl."^[28]
