How do I turn on closed captioning for movies? On the discription page there is now way to check it. I keep tapping on CC but it does not respond

It was happening on my Sony Bravia. Apple support finally showed me the way. You have to let a movie get started, then pause it on your Firestick (that is what I was using) which will show how much time the movie has been running, then hit down on that circle thing, which will make your movie time clock disappear, then click that circle thing down again and at the top of the screen will be the closed captioning ribbon.

Craxy, huh? Who would have thought?
