Children of a Lesser God
USA 1986, 118 minutes
Dir. Randa Haines
English
Genres: Classics, Drama / Romance
Feat. William Hurt, Marlee Matlin, Piper Laurie
Aroview: Acclaimed drama in which teacher-for-the-deaf William Hurt falls in love with Marlee Matlin. Newcomer Matlin won an Oscar for her charismatic fiery ASL performance. The gender politics have dated poorly. Hurt's romantically obsessed teacher/lover/father figure is framed as an inspiring white knight.

2 stars (Good Try) Starts off really well but it doesn't deliver much more than a love story when all said and done. ~Tubbs
