The film made Mary Matlin, the only deaf actress in the history of Oscar film, intended to convey that "if a girl truly understands and integrates into society, she will either experience pain physically or mentally, or learn from books in school. There are many ways to obtain it, and innocent love has always been indispensable.” The charming autumn scenery, golden fallen leaves, and beautiful harbor make the film colorful and vivid, which is also the world of the deaf and dumb. This group of people who were rejected in the corner of society responded to all kinds of misfortunes in the world with innocent eyes and instinctive smiles, with anxiety and regret. At the end, the audience got a comedy ending, which became the greatest comfort in the whole article.

A low-budget movie, an ordinary love story, but the heroine's performance is enough to move the audience.

In view of the strong lineup and the interesting plot, I gave it four stars, but the movie itself did not touch me much. The heroine is very beautiful, and her mouth is even more attractive. The male lead is actually played by the hero of Kiss of the Spider Woman.
