.... and quite realistic in an apocalypse where the protagonist is alone for almost the entire film. His silence is more appropriate than talking to himself or speaking his thoughts out loud. Kudos to the lead actor for conveying his feelings and thoughts without speaking. The only voices we hear are some prerecorded PSA's (Public Service Announcements) early in the movie to provide some vague background, and his daughter's voice in his memory. Any dialogue by his wife, the men who attack him, or the woman who screeches as she tries to stab him would be distractions which would lessen the impact of the chosen format.
