Re: So glad CODA won!

The only nominee for Best Picture I watched was Don't Look Up. I didn't watch very many 2021 movies.

Re: So glad CODA won!

The only ones I watched were CODA, Belfast, Dune, Licorice and The Power of the Dog.

Re: So glad CODA won!

I wanted to see CODA when I first read about it, but I don't recall seeing it advertised at the cinemas. I think it may have played at some festivals and art house cinemas in Oz.

I saw West Side Story, Dune and Don't Look Up from the 10 nominees. I only cared for WSS.

Norman! What did you put in my tea?

Re: So glad CODA won!

CODA was truly the best film this year.

Re: So glad CODA won!

I will have to reserve any informed judgement until I do get a chance to see it.

Of the 3 bp noms I saw, WSS blew me away and it would be a hard call to beat this to my mind. However, I am not adverse to seeing more intimate smaller films win picture if they connect all the right dots and have a big heart.

Re: So glad CODA won!

Fair enough, carry on.

I looked up CODA:

CODA is a 2021 coming-of-age comedy-drama film written and directed by Sian Heder. An English-language remake of the 2014 French film La Famille Bélier, it stars Emilia Jones as the eponymous CODA (child of deaf adults), the only hearing member of a deaf family, who struggles to balance her attempts to help her family's struggling fishing business and her own life aspirations.


This sounds like a chick flick. You liked this movie? You're gay, you old cocksucker.

Re: So glad CODA won!

It's not, and fuck off, faggot!

Re: So glad CODA won!

You're gay. Single men who own cats are all gay. Women look down on it because it's unmanly.

That must be why yo' ladyfriend left ya, assface.

Re: So glad CODA won!

Go back to sucking your boyfriend's dick, you moron faggot!

It sounds good. I like that the actors are really deaf

Yes they are. That's one of the things that made it so amazing.

Re: So glad CODA won!

I learned a bit of signing from Marlee. I started signing when I was around 7 years old, on and off, on and off. I also learned from watching music videos. Then I took a class in it and had a book at home, but nothing immersive as I'd like to have taken. Then a musician on YouTube whose music I really liked who signs to his music, and I started picking things up here and there.

So I didn't do it the usual way, ie: in a formal class setting, but that's how I started and picked things up and learned and relearned them. The books help because it transitions you from letters to words and phrases. In the beginning you'd be spelling everything out letter by letter and that's not how it's done, lol

I'd love to refresh my knowledge with this. I had a chance to use ASL at the dog park with a woman who's deaf. It was a bit of a hodgepodge because she tapped on my shoulder to tell me she was deaf, I took my mask down, and we communicated via ASL and lip reading. I couldn't have done too bad because she understood me and corrected me where I was wrong. It was fun to do that all over again. Probably for her too since no one out here in the boonies probably takes much time to learn it.

Re: So glad CODA won!

I think taking classes would be great! I'm such a shut-in though, it's doubtful that I would ever use it

So you hate Putin, but also hate Putin's #1 enemy? Methinks you're confused.

Mean people suck.

Re: So glad CODA won!

My daughters' best friend is a CODA. I have not watched yet though. SHe is fantastic about bridging the hearing and non-hearing communities. I did not know face piercings are considered rude in the Deaf community.

CODA kids also grow up faster. They do a lot for the parents as interpreters. They do it for schools, doctors, store clerks etc.

That girl is so animated it is hilarious. She slips into sign even when she is around the hearing. Sign is a lot of facial expressions. She gives herself away and cannot lie

Re: So glad CODA won!

She sounds fascinating, and you really should watch the movie. It was truly this year's best film, and I really enjoyed it.

Re: So glad CODA won!

I will soon!

The girl is very fascinating. She was making appointments for her brothers and parents from 8- or 9-years-old. There are deaf phone services, but they are a hassle. Mostly the kids will end up doing it for them. They do a lot for parents and siblings. Fascinating kids for sure!

Re: So glad CODA won!

She sounds like a great person.

Re: So glad CODA won!

I used to work with a CODA, she's awesome but also a prima donna and that aspect of her was a turn off
