PSA for San Jose Deaf/Hard of Hearing - Open Caption Movie Screening at Saratoga AMC 14
Helped get an open caption movie screening added at AMC Saratoga 14 - thought Deaf/HoH folks in the area would want to know.
For anyone unfamiliar: open captions are like subtitles or closed captioning on your TV, but they're built into the movie itself and shown right on the big screen for the whole theater to see - no special glasses, app, or device needed.
Sunday, August 30 at 4pm at Saratoga AMC 14 - the film showing is Spa Weekend, a comedy from the creators of Bad Moms and the writers of The Hangover (think Bad Moms meets Bridesmaids). Trailer here if you're curious: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAWNgB-R1Zk
The honest goal here is turnout - the more people who show up to an open caption screening, the stronger the case for AMC to keep offering them regularly instead of as a one-off. So if this is something you or someone you know would benefit from, I hope you will attend. Tickets are available through AMC directly.
