si tu das un solo apellido en bancos hospitales, lo que sea, te quedan mirando como preguntando y que mas...y el del marido para cosas legales no cuenta para nada.çlo que siempre cuenta aqui es el apellido con el cual naciste ( ambos )
ademas en personas que se llaman igual rara vez coincide el segundo apellido y es buena arma para identificar mejor a la gente...

Blind go to the movies

Blind people will have the opportunity to 'see' a movie thanks to a special technique employed by the Danish Film Institute

Some 150 blind people have been invited to the pictures on Wednesday for the showing of Danish director Thomas Vinterberg's latest film, 'A Man Comes Home'.

While it sounds much like inviting a group of deaf people to a concert, the Danish Association of the Blind has organised this first-ever outing in co-operation with the Danish Film Institute in Copenhagen so that the group can experience the film through a new technique.

By recording a separate narrative sound track and using specially designed equipment for playback, the movie-goers can get an idea of what is happening on-screen.

Members of the audience are also given a set of headphones to wear during the film, which allows them to follow the plot and still experience the sound effects and dialogue that goes with the movie.

Michael Madsen, an association member, said he is looking forward to experiencing the new technique.

'Since I lost my sight in 1980, I've only been to the movies twice, and both times I ended up disturbing others because I needed them to explain what was going on,' he said. 'I have no problem creating pictures in my head, so I have great expectations in going to the movies again.'

Initial experiments from Nimbus Film studio and the Danish Film Institute have shown that producing the blind-friendly soundtrack is inexpensive and simple, and the necessary equipment is also easy to come by.

Jens Bromann, president of the Danish Association of the Blind, said he hopes the new technique will catch on at all film studios and movie theatres.

'Now we just need all Danish-produced films to be made with sound adaptation and all theatres to invest in the equipment so blind people can go to the movies anywhere in the country.'
