For me the funniest part is when she tells them that it will actually only be two weeks, and they are like “no way!”

[ConfusedElectrolytes]

Dude! I'm a CODA! This scene is sooo relatable! It's not only doctor visits I had to deal with this. It's every single moment where I had to be the voice for my parents! Talking to insurance, doing taxes(had to talk to the IRS at one point lol), internet/phone bill, workplace, ordering food, and et cetera.. It was overwhelming when I was growing up, but now as an adult it's okay! So glad this film is getting the recognition it deserves!

This reminds me so much as a kid who grew up in a spanish language home in the USA. My siblings and I had to read every document and explain everything to our parents. I know this is about the deaf community but it can also be compared to this. It brought so many memories. This is why I loved this movie.

[foxtrot]

This scene alone is reason enough for why CODA deserved to win an Oscar!

[clarkgriswold]

Troy won best supporting oscar!! Totally deserved!!

This is also a perfect example on why it’s so important to have an interpreter in the healthcare scenario.

This is so relatable for every kid that has to be the translator for their family because family members do not speak English. Congratulations on the Oscars wins!

I remember a couple of days after the Oscars, I decided to give this movie a shot, not knowing what to expect. I started watching it around 1am...I ended up very loudly laughing out loud at this scene....and then had to pause and go back and watch it a few times until all tears of laughter came out. I died it was so funny. Love this movie.

As a child of immigrants, I can relate. Always translating, growing up fast.

[RoyCyberPunk]

That's the most colorful medical description ever.😂🤣😂

[alexasaltz]

"Never again." Hysterical!!!

[frappes_]

This scene made it so easy to believe this couple was madly in love. Loved the film.

[mrj.kottari]

I always break into all-out laughter when Frank signs the "like a lobster's claw boiling in water" part of the expression... I can't help it 😂

Troy is an american treasure ✨💛

When I was in Japan my mom needed Hemorrhoid cream. I don't speak Japanese very well. When I got to the pharmacy, I realized there was no way to mime my request and keep my dignity.

How they all weren't nominated for acting awards is beyond me. And to think that Emilia Jones was only 17.

[russellmyers]

My wife is an MD, and this may not be true in all hospitals/clinics or all states, but family members/friends are forbidden from being the translator for medical information to or from the patient(s). They HAVE to use a hospital-supplied translator who has had medical info training, otherwise the Doc has no way to know what is being translated accurately. It's considered a form of malpractice.

This movie reminds me of the 90s German movie "Jenseits der Stille" (Beyond Silence). In the movie, Lara is the daughter of deaf parents. Lara herself is hearing and is fluent in sign language and she does the interpreting for the family. Lara receives a clarinet as a Christmas gift and discovers the world of music, but it is a world in which her parents cannot follow her.

Not me only learning today that the oscar winning film is a remake of la famille belier…such a good film! I’m gonna have to watch this one now

[DannyRodeck]

Congrats to The Belier Family for winning an oscar!

That ASL sign for _barnacles_ is so graphic and hilarious.
