Customer Reviews of Sound and Fury
Perfect for classroom I showed this to my 6th grade English class, while we were reading Miracle Worker to give them a glimpse into contemporary deaf culture. They loved it, and really learned a lot about cochlear implants. I highly recommend it for teachers who are interested in giving students a broaded understanding of deaf culture and also something that will really spark classroom debate and interest!
This is so good in so many ways.
I teach ASL at a college and I show this to my ASL 1 students. It's full of insights into the cultural clashes between hearing and deaf people. Almost all of my students are hearing and they have the impression that the implant is a cure for deafness, which it isn't. The deaf people in the film express this idea too and lament the potentail demise of Deaf culture. The medical industry has done a great sales job to make parents believe that they're crazy not to give their deaf child the opportunity to live a "normal" life.

>As if the hearing world is so superior to the deaf world. The deaf people know this isn't so. They know that havng friends and a community of people who share the same cultural values is much more important than the ability to talk on the phone.

>The film always gets my students talking and I ask them to write a position paper. Many miss the point that the movie is about cultural differences, not medical advances. It's poignant and funny and the little girl, Heather, is so cute and full of life.

>Afterward, students come up to me and ask if they can borrow it to take home to show to their family. I can't recommend this highly enough. It's extremely well-done and the families involved make for a perfect venue to watch prejudices collide:

>A hearing woman with deaf parents who gives birth to a deaf boy - her parents are appalled at her decision to implant the boy and say so. They take her decision personally as an insult to the Deaf community. The hearing grandparents with the deaf son who fathers a deaf girl tell him it's child abuse not to implant his child.

The Artinian Family has been Implanted
with C.I. already except for Chris Artinian, the Father of Heather since 2003 and They have moved back to Long Island after 1 year in Maryland Deaf Community. All of the kids are probably mainstreamed instead of instituted in Residential School for the Deaf. This happened after 3 yrs of watching the trends and etc.

>This Documentary is excellent insight into turmoil between CI and Culturally deaf community. Nina and others appeared on ABC Good Morning America in 4/2003; see QT clips of that interview at: (...)
