The Reivers (1969)
Only a few good moments
I remembered some good scenes from seeing the movie long ago. But this time the movie was very slow, and the gaffs stood out. The old car sometimes started without being cranked. The soiled doves could not have dressed as they did in the movie. And there were other errors.
In a Silent World (2018)
I laughed, cried, and learned.
The movie is emotionally and intellectually gripping. I have known only a few deaf friends, and I didn't know much about how they made contact with the hearing world. The film was immensely informative about American Sign Language and its role in the education and communication of profoundly deaf people.
I want this movie to be seen by teachers who work with kids and families in other areas of special education as well as teaching the deaf.
The family featured in the film were wonderfully generous in sharing their experiences with all who view the film. It is a rare glimpse into a world we hearing people don't experience.
