After watching "The Listening Girl", I can only say that it is worthy of the Oscar for the best picture. Only in terms of the plot of the movie, this is really just a simple and warm story about "family and dreams", but the director's handling of the picture, color and music, and the design of the conflict of the plot and the rhythm of the movie control, and The unique expression of the details of the characters makes the whole film outstanding, and the performances of the actors are also remarkable, which makes the audience feel deeply. The heroine of the movie, Ruby, was born in a family whose parents and elder brother were both deaf and mute. The family made a living by fishing. Ruby was the only channel for the whole family to communicate with the outside world, but in such a quiet environment where they communicated by sign language, Ruby's dream was music. There is no doubt that the healthy Ruby is in conflict with the disabled family, Ruby's environment at home is in conflict with the environment outside, and Ruby's family is also in conflict with the dream she pursues. Her parents and family need Ruby, and because she can't hear Ruby's singing, she can't understand Ruby, but Ruby needs the support of her family. For her, music is not only a little talent, but also an expression of her own emotions. It is the pursuit and love of life. In this conflict, a little carelessness may cause both Ruby and her family to be injured, but fortunately, Ruby finally chose the family, and the family did not disappoint Ruby, and chose to support Ruby. Dreams and mutual fulfillment reflect the deep love for each other. In the expression of the theme of the film, no matter how many conflicts there are between home and dreams, they always revolve around the idea of "love". For example, the love between Ruby and her family, the love between teachers and students, Ruby's love for her dreams, and the love of Ruby's family for life, etc. Of course, the film is also based on this, conveying the hope that the world will show more care for people with disabilities. Love is the only thing that can transcend language, art, and even reality and dilemmas.
