Movie Reviews of Sound and Fury
Movie Review: Hard to watch, but very powerful
Summary: 4 Stars
I had to watch this film for my American Sign Language class. Going in, I thought it would be easy to get through. However, the amount of tension and conflict between the family was hard to watch. People from each side of the argument say thing's that they really shouldn't and they are very offensive. The movie is really great, but it will make you uncomfortable. It also made me realize that despite learning sign, I will never be accepted by the deaf community.
Summary of Sound and Fury
If you could make your deaf child hear, would you? Academy Award-nominated SOUND AND FURY follows the intimate, heart-rending tale of the Artinians, an extended family with deaf and hearing members across three generations. Together they confront a technYou might expect that the cochlear implant, a device that can give deaf people the gift of hearing, would be embraced by the deaf community. Josh Aronson's Sound and Fury, a compelling and often devastating documentary, tells a different story. Two brothers, one deaf and one hearing, grapple with a decision concerning their deaf children, and the debate that rages through the extended family turns less on technology and medical concerns than social politics and culture. The deaf parents of a school-age girl fear what the implant would do to her unique identity, while the hearing parents of a toddler see no question at all. Aronson gives all sides their say, but ultimately the increasingly angry arguments reveal prejudices and fears from both sides and split the once-harmonious family, much like they have split hearing and deaf communities across the country. --Sean Axmaker
