CODA (Featuring Ryan Pak)
Episode description
On the 232nd episode of Piecing It Together, Ryan Pak from Soundtrack Your Life joins me to discuss this year's Oscar winner for Best Picture, CODA. The story of a young woman who becomes interested in singing, causing tension with her deaf parents. It's a crowd pleaser, even if I didn't exactly like it the first time around (I liked it more on rewatch). Puzzle pieces include Little Miss Sunshine, Lady Bird, School of Rock and Minari.
As always, SPOILER ALERT for CODA and the movies we discuss!
Writer / Director - Sian Heder
Starring Emilia Jones, Marlee Matlin, Troy Kotsur, Daniel Durant, Eugenio Derbez
