Films involving Disabilities    



film stillGood Shepherd, The (2006)

a.k.a. 

Disabilities:  Deaf, diabetes

Comments:   Edward Wilson (Matt Damon) is recruited by the CIA and forms the focus of this history in the early days of the CIA. In a library he meets a deaf woman, Laura. She lip-reads and speaks and later she is wearing a hearing aid (s). He goes out with her but sleeps with the sister of a friend and gets her pregnant. This leads to a loveless marriage.
His interpreter is deaf in one ear, the result of an explosion, and wears a hearing aid.
The general (Robert de Niro) is losing part of his foot and then later his leg because, I believe, of diabetes.
