Rosemarie Lemon (Amy Irving) is a young deaf woman and teacher of deaf children whose dream of becoming a dancer is not supported by her mother (Viveca Lindfors). Drew Rothman (Michael Ontkean) is a truck driver working for the family business whose ambition to become a singer is ridiculed by his brother (Barry Miller) and father (Alex Rocco), who all live with the grandfather (Herbert Berghof) in an apartment in Hoboken, New Jersey. Drew becomes fascinated with Rosemarie after first seeing her in a train station. After tracking her down, he soon learns about her hearing impairment, but becomes fascinated with how she navigates life with the inability to hear, especially since music is Drew’s true passion. When Rosemarie and Drew start seeing each other, their relationship is strengthened by their ambitions and the need for support that they share. Despite initial criticism and commentary from Rosemarie's mother and Drew's father and brother, the couple manages to learn more about each other's world and become closer. In the end, they give each the love and confidence to succeed in achieving their dreams.,,

When the 2006 war breaks out, Amir is called back to duty, forcing him to evaluate his moral objections to serving again. After Nadia and Amir coincidentally meet at a coffee shop, Amir's decision to return to Israel becomes more complicated. Amir's best friend, Eli, returns to Israel to pledge his service to the army. Nadia's sister refuses to leave her home in Beirut, the seemingly "safe-haven" of Lebanon, increasing her mother's, Leila, emotional angst. Despite the powerful voices who are in opposition to Nadia's and Amir's respective sides, they are both able to reconcile their differences, until Beirut is bombed.

Kenny is about an 8-foot, 1,500-pound tiger shark who lives with 10-year-old Kat and her family in the suburbs. Her parents are tolerant of Kenny, but he's big and smelly.

Kat learns that living with a shark isn't that easy since they eat everything, they never sleep, and they constantly shed their teeth. To stay with Kat, Kenny must fight his natural carvings, making do with imitation seal flakes and resisting the desire to eat Kat's baby brother, who smells very tasty. But as often as the family adopts wild animals, problems arise. Kenny is almost always hungry. Keeping him fed and her family safe is Kat's most important task. Kat also faces the challenge of keeping Kenny from eating Dad's beanbag chairs, teaching Kenny to mind his manners, and keeping him out of trouble. Kenny is constantly shedding his teeth, and his crazy behavior sometimes keeps Kat up all night.

Voices 1979 - I'll Will Always Wait For You - Burton Cummings Michael Ontkean Amy Irving A love story beyond words. ***I do not own the copy rights
This highly under-aprreciated gem was released in 1979 to little fanfare. With a wonderful score by Jimmy Webb and songs performed by Burton Cummings(lead singer of "The Guess Who"), this film is a true delight. Amy Irving ("Carrie", "The Competition") and Michael Ontkean ("The Rookies", "Making Love", "Slapshot"), star in this heartwoarming film about a singer who falls for a deaf woman who feels that if she loves stays with him, he will never be fulfilled because of her disability. His is a world of music, she lives in a world without sound. Beautiful night shot of the Twin Towers in Mahattan appears in this this clip. I hope you enjoy this tribute and can relive the magic of this rare and wonderful film.

I knew this would happen and I don't want to be around
when it gets out.
I've closed the last picture and painted the windows
inside and out.
Give me your dreams and I'll give you my time,
together we'll cross the borderline.
Voices - cracking the night,
voices - that cut like a knife,
voices - hear them singing...
From sparks to the fire, from here to obsession they cover the end.
Twisting a match and see the reflections of hunters of men.
Give me your dreams and I'll give you my time,
until we make it to the borderline.
