The Movie, “CODA.” will tug at your heartstrings!

2022 Oscar News and Reviews. Number 1

I gave it 5 stars — will you?

My wife and I try to watch every movie nominated in the various categories each year.

Last night we watched the movie “CODA.” CODA stands for ‘Children of Deaf Adults’.

The plot centers around Ruby Rossi, a high school senior, who is the only hearing member of her family. Her parents Frank and Jackie and older brother Leo are all culturally Deaf. She assists with the family fishing business and plans to join it full-time after finishing high school.

The conflict arises when she joins the choir as an elective during her senior year at high school and discovers she has a world class singing voice and enters a competition to go to Music College in Boston. She is torn between her desire to go pursue her singing career and helping her deaf family manage their fishing business.

That’s the plot. My wife and I both give it a 5-star rating.

We have seen 5 of the Best Picture nominees so far and CODA tops the list.

We signed up for Apple TV+ so we could watch it. We will stay subscribed because there are some other shows we want to view

I did see a post on the Internet that people could sign up for the 7-day free trail and then unsubscribe. Not my thing, but FYI.

Stay tuned for more Oscar News and Reviews.

Of course if heartwarming stories are your thing, I also would recommend my short novella, MELANIE: A TALE OF WONDER
