actors on camera: Marlee Matlin, who became the first deaf actor to win an Oscar in 1987 for"Children of a Lesser God," plays his wife.Matlin has given him advice about how to behave now that the paparazzi lights and literal spotlights have turned his way."She warned me that there was going to be so many flashbulbs on the red carpet," he recalls."My eyes have to get used to it.
Kotsur as Stanley Kowalski, Suanne Spoke as Blanche in Deaf West Theatre's performance of "A Streetcar Named Desire," circa 2000."In TV and film, they tend to have deaf characters as victims or sympathy characters," he explains,"unless it was based on a true story. In 'CODA,' Frank was a hardworking man who was successful and protected his family.
But it wasn't just about physicality; as he explains, ASL has its own regional dialects, just like verbal language. "But remember," he says,"those films had just one deaf character apiece. 'CODA' was one of the first times there was a deaf ensemble cast with three deaf actors. Our film is a big step forward."
