Nell is a girl who's been brought up in an isolated world. The only people she knew were her mother and twin sister. They lived together in a cottage in the forest. Nobody has ever met Nell. After her mother's death, she's discovered by the local doctor Jerome. He's fascinated by her, since she speaks a mangled language, developed by her sister and herself growing up, "twin speak" if you will. But Paula, a psychology student, wants her observed in a laboratory. The judge decides they get three months to observe her in the forest, after which he'll decide about Nell's future.

What a wonderful movie. And I like the trailer because it gives you time to WATCH the pictures and not like nowadays every scene is flashing so fast your eyes hardly can catch it! :-) Nice. - @Sunday, October 14, 2018 5:09 PM

Legend has it Pootie Tang hung out with Nell quite often. They sat around the fire place and just laughed and laughed. - @Thursday, September 6, 2018 11:15 PM

Excuse me, but I think that I am going to barf! I can't stand these stupid stories where all realism, logic, common sense, and believability are chucked out the window, flushed down the toilet, and otherwise sacrificed on some Hollywood alter just to divinate some cheap feel-good, pretentious, holier-than-hell moral about purity & innocence or whatever. Normally, I am very fascinated by cases (preferably real ones) concerning the key themes of this film -- e.g. cultural differences, isolation, linguistics, etc. However, I tried watching this film, and after 10 or 15 minutes, I couldn't take any more, so I shut it off. No matter how pretty & talented the cast is, and no matter how breathtaking the cinematography & scenery, I simply cannot enjoy a story which makes no damn sense whatsoever. The initial premise was absolutely absurd. I don't understand how any adult of normal intelligence could buy it. How the hell do 2 or 3 hermits survive in a shack in this day & age without interacting with anybody? Do they hunt? Do they fish? Do they gather roots & berries. Who does all that weaving, cobbling, and sewing so that they have shoes & clothes? How do they keep their teeth clean & in good condition without going to the dentist, flossing, and flouride? Oh yeah, some kid brings them groceries. Excuse me, but W.T.F.?!?!?!?!? How are these paid for if none of the hermits ever hold jobs or interact with welfare case workers? Please... get back to me when you have made a movie which insults not my average intelligence. - @Sunday, October 29, 2017 1:08 PM

I fell hopelessly in love with Jodie Foster, watching this movie. There is something in her face--her eyes & smile, that is unlike ANY other actress I've ever seen. At times, she's plain--at others, she is so beautiful, I have to remind myself to breathe Incredible film ! Wolfsky9 - @Saturday, July 19, 2014 7:14 AM

Nell had no type of autism or retardation. She spoke that way because her mom had a stroke and half her face was paralized and nell caught on to the speaking pattern. - @Friday, September 20, 2013 12:51 PM
