YOUR QUESTION
I remember seeing a movie that had to do with deaf children. It was about a teacher coming to the deaf school and helping one of the students learn to speak. What is the name of the movie and who were the main characters?

DAVE'S ANSWER
You are remembering "Amy" (1981), which starred Jenny Agutter, Barry Newman, Kathleen Nolan, and Nanette Fabray. Agutter played a young mother who has recently lost her deaf son, and goes to work at a school attempting to teach deaf kids to speak in an era when sign language was considered the only feasible means of communication. The roles of the deaf children were played by students from the California School for the Deaf.
