love and dream

Ruby is the only person in the family who has hearing. Her family's livelihood needs her. She gets up at 3 in the morning to fish, and then goes to school to make up for sleep in class. Singing is her hobby, she uses it to relax, eat and listen to songs, and listen to songs in her room.

Because other people in the family can't hear it, she may not know the importance of music to Ruby. The mother thinks that her hearing daughter will leave her one day. She is not a good mother. She finds that Ruby likes singing and begins to feel scared. Tell her not to listen to music during meals and stop her from going to music lessons. Leo feels that he is an older brother, but is protected like a child, and is also angry that his sister gave up going to college because of the family's livelihood. The father was neutral and did not force his daughter to stay at home, and even wanted to sell the boat, but when the daughter said that she wanted to help the family, she was still very happy.

The way they get along as a family, as Miles said, they are in love with each other, what would they say bluntly, brother and sister hurt each other, and it is precisely because of love for each other that Ruby has a hard time deciding. At the concert, Frank and Jessie were bored at the beginning. They could only follow the people next to them. Others applauded and followed. Others stood up and followed. The expression shows the beauty of the music. In the evening, the father felt the vibration brought by his daughter's music and was determined to help his daughter realize her dream.

Leo couldn't sing in the interview, and Ruby didn't meet the standard for the first time. In the end, Ruby sang loudly in front of his family, conveying that love is the soul of singing.

In the end, it is wonderful to see the three people in the family get along well with others. I hope the world of "Silent" can too.

CODA quotes

  • Frank Rossi: The song you sang tonight. What was it about?

    Ruby Rossi: It was about... what it is to need another person.

    Frank Rossi: Can you sing it for me?

  • Ruby Rossi: [signing] Did you ever wish I was deaf?

    Jackie Rossi: [signing] When you were born, at the hospital, they gave you a hearing test. And there you were, so tiny and sweet, with those electrodes all over you. And I... prayed that you would be deaf. When they told us that you were hearing, I felt... My heart sank.

    Ruby Rossi: [signing] Why?

    Jackie Rossi: [signing] I was worried that we wouldn't connect. Like me and my mom, we're not close. I thought I would fail you. That being deaf would make me a bad mom.

    Ruby Rossi: [signing] Don't worry. You are a bad mom for so many other reasons.

    [They laugh]
