A coming of age drama following the life of Matt Hamill, the first deaf wrestler to win a National Collegiate Wrestling Championship. HAMILL is a sports drama depicting the struggles and successes Matt Hamill faces on the way to becoming a champion. Raised among those with the ability to hear, Matt later finds himself no less an outsider amidst the Deaf Community. Through sheer determination, he uses his perceived disability as an asset, and becomes both the first deaf wrestler to win a National Collegiate Championship and an inspirational force to the hearing and deaf alike.
ASL课上看的,原来对这种老师为特定topic放的电影标准会自动减一半,但却是节奏音乐镜头都很优秀的一部电影,印象最深是瀑布那段,看得时候身心也都跟着静了下来。到结尾ending bgm跟着“真实事件改编”字样与照片出现时,之前看完电影短短的满足感更是上一层鸡皮疙瘩,不由得感动。是目前ASL老师放得电影最喜欢的一部。也对deaf culture更了解了
我喜欢演kristi的那个妹子qwq
看完之后wikipedia了一下主人公Matt Hamill,本想看看他们之后到底有多幸福,结果只看到Hamill is divorced from his Deaf wife。看电影时感到的美好顿时灰飞烟灭了。果然为了励志许多事可以避而不谈
