This film "Hearing Girl" is a remake of the French film "The Belliers". Although this film has won many awards, this film tells a very simple story, a girl who lives in a deaf-mute family, Lu Bi, swayed back and forth between shouldering the responsibility of the family and wanting to realize his dream, and finally was understood by the family and helped by the teacher, and was admitted to the Berklee College of Music.
After watching this film, my biggest feeling is that the love of parents is selfless and selfish, healing and disappointing - the one who hears the voice is love, and the one who doesn't hear the voice is also love.
In the film's episode "Both Sides Now", this music implies that Ruby is a person who travels between the sound world and the silent world, but the particularity of her identity prevents her from being fully accepted by the two worlds. This made the revealing mentality feel inferior. But Ruby was bullied at school, and some people laughed at Ruby because of her family, and Ruby had her own friends at school. Ruby has been an interpreter in the family since she was a child. She went fishing with her father and brother, and took on the responsibility of the family, which also prevented Ruby from integrating into the world of normal people. In the family, her parents never paid attention to her, and never paid attention to Ruby's dream. After entering the choir and meeting her teacher, Ruby has her own dreams and wants to follow her dreams.
Many places in the film show their inferiority and cowardice as deaf and dumb people, as well as the discrimination and injustice they suffer in the normal world. Especially at the concert, the director used a minute-long silence to portray their helplessness - they couldn't feel Ruby's singing, and could only judge Ruby's performance by observing other people's expressions. The two of them turned their heads to see everyone's reaction to Ruby's singing. When someone clapped, they clapped their hands too; when others laughed, they laughed too. From this, it was clear that the parents understood Ruby's heart and Ruby's heart. . When I came home at night, my father talked to Ruby, and Ruby sang the music on stage for my father again. Although my father could not hear it, my father put his hand on Ruby's vocal cords and felt the power of the music. , Father also paid more attention to Ruby and supported Ruby's dream.
As an older brother, Leo has a side of loving his younger sister. When his mother found out that Ruby was wrong, he found an excuse to comfort the relationship between the two parties. When Ruby gave up her dream, the older brother showed a lot of guilt in his heart.
Near the end of the film, Ruby asks her mother, "Before I was born, did you wish I was deaf?" The mother replied, "Yes, I used to wish you were deaf." The mother's explanation to Ruby at the time was , First, I don't want her to be close to me because of my hearing impairment, and second, I don't want me to live up to Ruby. When Ruby said she liked to sing, her mother was worried that she would not be able to hear her daughter sing. She didn't know how good Ruby was singing. She was afraid that Ruby would fail.
Under the understanding and care of her father and mother, and with the guidance and help of her teachers, Ruby finally got admitted to the Berklee College of Music and fulfilled her musical dream. At the end of the film, there is a scene where the father said "Go ahead", indicating that Ruby is allowed to realize her dreams, pursue the life she wants, and live for herself.
In this film, everyone discovers their own problems through some bad things, tolerates and respects each other, and makes everyone understand and care for each other through love!
The awards and word of mouth of "Listening Girl" are considered to be a healing chicken soup for the soul. I understand the truth, but we still have to face the reality. It is impossible for each of us to meet a teacher as good as Miles, and it is impossible To replicate the success of others, we need to be strong in ourselves to bravely pursue the life we want. On the road in the future, follow what you think in your heart and fight for your future!
