It's no major literary marvel, but here's mine. Others wrote, too.


Email: info@amctv.com Dear AMC Viewer Services,

My sister and I are totally deaf.

The nearest theater showing captioned films is thirty miles away in Oregon’s state capitol. The theater presents four films several times daily, but its captioned feature is only shown once on Wednesday evenings. My sister lives in California with even fewer prospects to see captioned movies.

We are retired to live on pensions and Social Security. As such, we cannot afford premium channels, so American Movie Channel is our greatest opportunity to watch movies.

However, when we look forward to a movie on AMC, many times we are disappointed. There are no closed captions, and we cannot watch.

We notice after a week or so, after being shown many times, the movie
suddenly will have captions, but we never know when.

Why do we deafies have to wait for captioning if they are going to be captioned eventually?
