Found the plot progression and dialogue odd and unconvincing. Some of the premises make zero sense and are unexplained. Tried to do a lot and failed I think. A Quiet Place allowed representation for the deaf community in a way that was respectful and hopeful. I am troubled by how the film concludes at a Blind School. No explanation as to why being blind is being spared (you can't experience this evil in other ways? Just by sight?) In many ways this essentializes vision and places it in a moral field. Not only is this not representative of real blind people but there is no likelihood of Sandra's character, a woman with sight, could've gone down the river with two kids and survive. It's a romanticization of sense deprivation that does more harm than good
