Calling on the film industry to continue to develop technologies that make films more accessible to the hearing-impaired.

Commends the film industry for its commitment to making films more accessible to the hearing-impaired.

Urges such industry to continue to make the development of open-captioning and other technology to aid the hearing-impaired an integral part of the film production and distribution process.

Encourages: (1) filmmakers to produce and distribute versions of some films that are open-captioned or have advanced amplification systems; and (2) movie theatres to have at least some preannounced screenings of versions of featured films that are open-captioned.
