Film Review: Coda (USA 2021) vs. The Bélier Family (FRA 2014)
Content:
In this podcast, we analyze the differences between the French comedy “The Bélier Family” from 2014 and the American remake and Oscar winner “Coda” from 2021.
We discuss the plots of both films, which center on a hearing teenager with a deaf family who discovers a singing talent, and then we provide a review offering opinions on various aspects, including the actors, themes, and overall quality.
Ultimately, we conclude that “The Bélier Family” is the superior film and was arguably deserving of recognition itself, noting that “Coda” largely copied the original's screenplay.
Plot:
Coda (USA 2021)

When she joins the school choir, she discovers her talent and falls in love with her duet partner. Supported by her strict choir teacher, Ruby must decide whether to follow her passion or stay loyal to her family, who rely on her sign language skills.
The Bélier Family (FRA 2014)

When she joins the school choir, she discovers her singing talent and is encouraged by her teacher to audition in Paris. Caught between family obligations and her desire to pursue her dreams, Paula faces a difficult decision that affects her family and her future.
