What did you not realise that every country has its own sign language? Oh, well, well, no, universal sign language doesn’t exist. And obviously it’s also in French sign language.
The only difference is that in the French version, obviously it’s different kinds of people there, it’s run in a French farm of sorts.
I’ve seen a trailer and it does look very similar in terms of the setup of it. And I think I can see why, because there are a lot of kind of like warm, feel good factors and emotion, and trying to be so sympathetic to the CODA.Īnd I think I can see why a lot of people will say that. But the main websites, like Rotten Tomatoes, they rated it 96% and on IMDB rated it at 8.1 out of 10. The general reviews seem to be very positive albeit its from different target market. It doesn’t mean that that is what everyone is thinking. And that’s why it’s so important that I’m just going to share my opinion. Everyone will have their own opinion about whether it’s good or bad, whether it’s authentic or not, whether they think it should be released or not, whether they think it should be done in a different way, like any film, like any movie or film out there, you’re going to have differences of opinion. In terms of the actual film itself, I should point out, first of all, that this is all my opinion. It’s different than learning sign language for a few months, but that was one thing that people were saying, but I don’t know. I think it’s okay personally, because you get a hearing person to learn the sign language kind of like in real life, not the same. I don’t know any ASL right now, at the time of recording anyway, but apparently it’s not authentic enough, but I don’t know. Especially ASL, which is something that I have no clue about. So I would not know whether that person is signing in the way a CODA would. I couldn’t tell because not only I’m not a CODA, but sign language is not my first language. And some people can tell that, apparently. So it makes sense having deaf actors involved, and there are some concerned, apparently that the CODA, in this case, Ruby, the actor is not really a CODA in real life. I personally agree that it should be authentic as possible. Just get, someone in and teach him sign language for a few months. And it kind of went that way, eventually.īut it’s interesting that there was a pushback on the idea of having deaf actors, but the same time, maybe we shouldn’t be surprised because that tends to happen. Because that’s what there is in the film, there are people who are deaf in real life and there are deaf actors, so quite authentic.Īnd you’d think that would make sense, but apparently the financier people didn’t want it to happen.Īnd one of the actors, Marlee Matlin, who is well-known in deaf community and a bit of a celebrity in her own way, she was adamant that it must be led by deaf actors. And one of them was that the crew members or the people who financed the film, apparently they didn’t want any deaf actors at all. In the buildup to the creation of the film, there were a few rumours about it coming out.
That’s what the film is all about and I’m going to do a brief review about what I think about it, what are the problems and what you can gain from it.
