"Sweet Nothing in My Ear" is a television movie that debuted on the CBS television network as a Hallmark Hall of Fame movie on April 20, 2008. The film is directed by Joseph Sargent, and is based on a play of the same name by Stephen Sachs. It stars Jeff Daniels and Marlee Matlin who play the parents of a deaf child, Noah Valencia, that struggle with deciding to give their child an implant that will allow him to hear again.

Daniels studied American Sign Language before filming, in order to portray the language accurately.

Plot

Dan and Laura Miller (Daniels, Matlin) have been married for several years, but their relationship begins to change when their only son, Adam (Valencia), loses his hearing at the age of four. At first his parents accept this change because Laura is deaf herself. Dan begins to explore the idea that with a surgical procedure and cochlear implants his son may be able to hear once again. A rift forms between Dan and Laura when Dan starts to favor the procedure and Laura opposes it. They take the dispute to a child custody hearing, but in the end decide to work it out on their own and stay a family.
