Speechless (2012)
8/10
Might be difficult to understand, for some people...

Warning: Spoilers
I saw this movie some 2 years ago and forgot to rate it. By pure chance I tumbled upon this page again and read the 2 comments.

While I can understand one of them, I couldn't disagree more with the other. And I just can't understand this cold & heartless comment. You could tell that about any & every movie, that it's dumb. Madame Bovary, Star Wars, are just dumb. That is, if you are not open to discovering something, when you really are not ready to try to understand a story and how it is brought on film.

There are, in this movie, so many tender and, for Hong Kong and China movies, new approaches. That is, if you want to see them.

Loss of memory, of speech, can happen after a traumatizing event. That is, if you want to try to understand, and are prepared to do some research before commenting.

The last scene of this touching movie is impressive. See it for yourself, or have another look.

None of the principal actors is known (until today) to have participated in another move. Is it because they were bad actors? I don't think so. They made a statement with this beautiful movie. They needn't do more.

Open you mind and enjoy!
