Interesting. They chose not to use any background music, not even sound effects. They really sell that the protagonist is deaf.
Oh, nevermind. It was muted.

This reminds me of the first time I saw Wall-E.
There isn't any real dialog until later in the movie, but at one point (fairly early, I think?) it showed a newspaper.
The headline was in French.
You'd think that this would have tipped me off that maybe I downloaded the wrong version from the net. But no.
My wife and I had recently been watching a bunch of indie (and sometimes foreign) films at the local art house theatre. So it was totally plausible to me that it was an artistic choice to have the paper in French. Some comment on the future of society, or something.
And that's what I continued to believe until much later in the movie when there was full-on dialog in French (with no subtitles) and it finally dawned on me.
Oops.
I watched Perfect Days (Japanese film) in Italian by accident. Took a while to notice.
Yeah, I've been that high.
I once watched Singham, and when the credits rolled I thought
Oh that was short, I thought Indian movies were typically quite long!
It was the opening credits.
Yes, I was very high. My friends had to pause the movie because they were laughing so hard.

Fr though, I love BCS but there's a great show hidden in about 4 alright shows there. I'd have loved to see what could've been done without COVID/writer strikes
