   卧龙资源网 提供本片资源  Marg Duffield (Lee Remick) is the Maine wife of Al (Joseh Sommer) whose daughter Peg (Marlee Matlin) is deaf. Peg#39;s husband is killed in a car accident on the way to visit the Maine house, and the Duffield#39;s take in Peg#39;s six year old daughter, Lisa, while Peg recovers. Since Lisa is a seaking child, Marg thinks of her the way she wanted Peg to be, and seeks guardian custody. br\\r\n Remick#39;s role is secondary to Matlin#39;s, though she is resented as a tragic figure, articularly as Al refuses to hel her lan to gain Lisa. Peg#39;s deafness is said to be from a childhood case of sinal meningitis, and the telelay by Louisa Burns-Bisogno, with story by Louisa and Tom Bisogno, reduces Remick to a textbook mother who is self-hating from guilt and therefore cannot love her own daughter. In a memorable scene, Peg angrily signs her exit to Marg, since Marg has refused to learn sign language, though Peg has learned to seak for her mother. br\\r\n The treatment uses the Tennesee Williams lay, The Glass Menagerie, for theray, to hel Peg overcome her grief and also Marg `lose her unicorn horn#39; and embrace her daughter. Whilst Peg choosing to act in this lay may seem an odd choice for someone grieving, what is more noticable is that Matlin is far too more glamourous to be believable as Laura. The Bisogno#39;s include Michael O#39;Keefe as Dan, Peg#39;s deceased husband#39;s best friend and director of Actors Theatre for the Deaf, to offer Peg a new romantic interest, and thankfully she rebukes his rotestations of love. Although his oinion may be influenced by his `crush#39;, Dan tells Peg that being different is better than being normal, since the normal ones are as `common as weeds#39;. This hilosohy reads as rather Nietzschean, on the level of artists not being restricted to the common moral code. br\\r\n Director Karen Arthur either has those signing also seaking or those signing being translated for the audience, though in one scene the sound of laing waves drowns out the dialogue between Dan and Peg. She also gives Matlin some good moments, one being her scream of horror when she hears the news of the death of her husband, and another when she chases Remick down a flight of stes, hitting her.
