@Scocondrilla THANK YOU SO MUCH for uploading this video!!! Loved it and helped me to familiarize myself with the play since I'm in props for our high school's production. I hope SOPA or any part of the government doesn't take this beautiful video off YouTube!! Great job!!
BEST CLASSIC OF ALL TIME!! Don't know why we have haters from a true story classic. The world is really a strange place. Thanks sooo much for posting! Toodles~ :-D
This is the best rendition of the Helen Keller story ever done. It's heart wrenching yet inspiring. We have no reason for not achieving our goals no matter what the obstacles.
in school today, i watched this movie and we had to stop because, it was almost lunch time. anyway, along time ago, Helen Keller was on the T.v. i also read the book and it was great!11 ;)
Sometimes i wonder: why doesn't Annie Sullivan have more fame? It was only through her persistance and hard work that HK got anywhere...any child in complete darkness would act as HK did, but very, very, very few adults would agree to teach a child like that, and even fewer would be as successful as Annie.. Annie is the real hero!
@Sth784 You should read "Kant vs. Sullivan" by Ayn Rand. It is the most glowing testiment to Annie Sullivan I've ever read and, in the essay, she basically outlines why Anne Sullivan should be the model for all teaching.
i wouldent say she was in hell, she has no idea what communication is or what "talk" means. she couldednt feel trapped if she was never free... think about it.
This movie has it all. Patty Duke so deserved the Oscar, unlike Tatum O'Neal in "Paper Moon." The dialogue, life lessons, acting, and directing are top notch. I've decided that this is my favorite film of all time. Every note, every stroke, is perfection. I could go on for hours about every scene, but I think I've made my point.
This movie must've won an award...most likely on Patty Duke's account. She is so completely believable, which is quite a feat considering the complexity of her character, and her young age. All i can say is wow.
I can't imagine how someone could live being deaf and blind. It's like they're in a dark, soundless world that they can't ever escape from no matter how hard they bang on the ground or how loud they scream
@rumorguy555 it makes you realize just how intelligent and amazing Helen was as was Anne,her mentor and teacher and life long companion. they are both to be admired and respected! amazing true life story.
@rumorguy555 Oh God, I agree with you. Like being locked in a dark room with no sound--sensory deprivation. You don't understand these beings and objects around you, no point of reference for you to understand. No way to communicate. No way to fathom this world that you can only feel. It would be emotional hell. How could she understand anything? In her later memoirs, Helen referred to herself before Annie came into her life as a "phantom." Very telling word choice, no?
@galveston i wouldent say she was in hell, she has no idea what communication is or what "talk" means. she couldednt feel trapped if she was never free... think about it.
@web6met I can't agree. Not being able to see or hear isn't a natural state for a human. Helen was obviously extremely frustrated. Without communication or stimulation, her mind stagnated. She had to sense she was different. That she had such a superior mind had to have contributed to her feelings of frustration and emotional distress. It's as if she were all alone in a house full of people, locked in a dark silent room. Whether it's hell or loneliness, she was very unhappy.
@galveston Yes i fully agree.I had huge tantrums as a kid and felt very alone cause my father abandoned me when i was 2 years so this movie touches me the more.I understand Helen and her frustrations,anger cause my mother didn't understand me when i was a little girl.She thought i was hyperactive and a "difficult child"while i was terribly frustrated.Feeling alone,like Helen also without hearing or seeing is..unhuman.
beautiful and so touching movie ever made i watched this in 5th grade as a child..never forget this movie ..thanku for posting ..Anne Bancroft is undeniably the best for this role..i just wish more were this lenient in today's World of our handicapped and disabled..A+++
this not right i watch this movie all the way through in july of this year and it's banned cause od copy right. This movie u can't find cause of the remake. fuck u utube
in german version they never added any subs for that masterpiece for deaf and hearing impaired. so I did that job and added german subs for my deaf dad who was almost crying (his all-time-favourite-movie finally subbed)
I tried to upload the german subbed video in youtube and after it was up youtube informed me that the video was too long....
So, my question is how can I upload the german subbed (.srt) video here for all the german hearing impaired? Anyone any idea? Google couldn't help me :'(
@loggats no, I can't upload it in smaller parts since I have no idea how to part this with moviemaker and keep the subs in :/ but how comes the movie here is in one part on you tube??? I'd like to do the same
Excellent movie..I was only 5 years old when this movie was made. Just gave up my age lol. I saw it on tTV a few years back and have been looking for it. Thank you so much..it's excellent picture quality also.
@Coltongirl1 He's just frustrated for her. He, like many people, have doubts sometimes about how their children will grow up and be treated. Helen's his daughter and like all fathers, they want what's best for their daughters and don't know how to help sometimes. In the end, he is overjoyed for her.
I just auditioned for this play yesterday... if i get the part of helen, i certainly have big shoes to fill! She is incredible and this part would be a challenge for anyone.
I have so much respect for Annie Sullivan. She is very tough on Helen, but she is tough because she loves her and wants the best for her. Annie is Helen's dispeller of darkness and true guide in her life. For that gift, Annie is a true humanitarian.
I admire Annie Sullivan determination and sacrifice to help and teach another human being. She treasures the human heart of learning and she is not concerned about the human luxuries of cutlery or furniture breaking apart. I also disagree with a lot of her teaching methods. I believe her teaching would be more effective if she first connects and earns the trust of Helen through compassion and love, rather than harshness and compelling behaviour. There should be no compulsion.
Even though it's been awhile since I've seen this movie, I have seen it many times and I always love the fight between Anne and Helen at the breakfast table. I don't even think of Helen as blind during the "Breakfast War". I think of two stubborn minds at the beginning of a battle. Thank you for uploading this.
@iBitchyCookie Yes..making the distinction between sympathy & empathy is important for all of us. You cannot "help" people (you see them as "at effect") but you can assist them (see them "as cause.") It is so terrifying to know your child has some medical condition--we are all so vulnerable. Life is terrifying and wonderful--or, as Reiner Marie Rilke said "Life comes at you--point blank."
Amazing amazing movie.. this acting is exquisite.. i can't watch other shows of the miracle worker cause they're all not good enough compared to this one. .Patty Duke and Anne Bancroft are absolutely talented. My favorite movie<3
"Annie Sullivan, her young teacher (superlatively portrayed by Anne Bancroft), is fiercely determined to transform this creature into a human being, and she knows the only means that can do it: language, i.e., the development of the conceptual faculty. But how does one communicate the nature and function of language to a blind-deaf-mute? The entire action of the play is concerned with this single central issue: Annie's struggle to make Helen's mind grasp a word -- not a signal, but a word."
"...To my knowledge, "The Miracle Worker" is the only epistemological play ever written. It holds the viewer in tensely mounting suspense, not over a chase or a bank robbery, but over the question of whether a human mind will come to life. Its climax is magnificent: after Annie's crushing disappointment at Helen's seeming retrogression, water from a pump spills over Helen's hand, while Annie is automatically spelling "W-A-T-E-R" into her palm, and suddenly Helen understands."
"The two great moments of that climax are incommunicable except through the art of acting: one is the look on Patty Duke's face when she grasps that the signals mean the liquid -- the other is the sound of Anne Bancroft's voice when she calls Helen's mother and cries: "She knows!"
This is the first time I've seen the movie about Helen Keller......And thank you very much for making this here.....Its really helpful for me for my academics......thanks to you..... :)
this is a really great movie thank you for uploading this the full version. i was asigned to watch this for school and i really am greatful that you uploaded this all together
This may be a silly question to ask but how could Mrs. Keller tell Helen was blind? I could tell Helen was deaf since she couldn't hear her mother scream but how could she tell she became blind?
@taurusgirl65 You're very welcome! Helen and Annie both, were an inspiration you can do anything you set your mind to if you had the will to do it. Helen wanted to communicate SOMEHOW with the outside world and Annie was determined Helen would do JUST that. They were both Miracles!
@libralady1010 Yes real Helen looked straight ahead and didn't react at her mother's snapped fingers.She also realized she was deaf but not the same day actually.In fact Helen's parents realized their daughter was stone deaf a bit later because she didn' t respond the dinner bell anymore whereas she used to stop at the dinner bell to toddle downstairs before her illness.Sad but true.And the bell could be heard very far away,so they understood and shouted at her.But it was a few days after.
I love this movie. I'm getting book and hopefully the DVD if they have it. Its so amazing to know that anything is possible for anyone in any condition. Thanks for posting the whole movie!!
Wonderful film. I only came across their story by chance on here, now I'm looking at various vids about these two ladies. thank you for uploading this.
This is an incredible movie - saw it when I was a child and this film and To Kill A Mockingbird affected me deeply. There are parts I wish could be redone - the acting by the parents is more appropriate to the stage but Patty Duke and Anne Bancroft give amazing performances. The score is haunting and beautiful. And the real life story of Helen Keller and Annie Sullivan is inspiring and fascinating.
I'm a little surprised that this movie has gotten a few dislikes. I realize that Helen wouldn't have been able to see or hear this, but maybe her friend Polly told her about the movie. What a remarkable little girl Helen was! :) I think that if Helen was born in our time, that antibiotics could have prevented her from losing her sight and hearing.
Great person those 2 Anne Sullivan and Helen Keller

This is a beautiful movie. This is so inspiring it made me learn finger spelling and eager to learn how to speak in sign language. :)

This may be a silly question to ask but how could Mrs. Keller tell Helen was blind? I could tell Helen was deaf since she couldn't hear her mother scream but how could she tell she became blind?

@taurusgirl65 She snapped her fingers very close to Helens' eyes. Were Helen able to see she would've squinted them or turned away from the snapping

@taurusgirl65 You're very welcome! Helen and Annie both, were an inspiration you can do anything you set your mind to if you had the will to do it. Helen wanted to communicate SOMEHOW with the outside world and Annie was determined Helen would do JUST that. They were both Miracles!

@libralady1010 Real true heroines to inspire everyone, everywhere. Throughout the movie, there is also hope and as you said, determination. :)

@libralady1010 Yes real Helen looked straight ahead and didn't react at her mother's snapped fingers.She also realized she was deaf but not the same day actually.In fact Helen's parents realized their daughter was stone deaf a bit later because she didn' t respond the dinner bell anymore whereas she used to stop at the dinner bell to toddle downstairs before her illness.Sad but true.And the bell could be heard very far away,so they understood and shouted at her.But it was a few days after.

Fantastic movie, I haven't seen this movie since the 70's, the 1979 remake was god awful, Melissa Gilbert sucked.

This is an incredible movie - saw it when I was a child and this film and To Kill A Mockingbird affected me deeply. There are parts I wish could be redone - the acting by the parents is more appropriate to the stage but Patty Duke and Anne Bancroft give amazing performances. The score is haunting and beautiful. And the real life story of Helen Keller and Annie Sullivan is inspiring and fascinating.

This movie brings so much memories for when I was little! I remember watching this with my mom on the couch while cuddling with her. Good times :')

I'm a little surprised that this movie has gotten a few dislikes. I realize that Helen wouldn't have been able to see or hear this, but maybe her friend Polly told her about the movie. What a remarkable little girl Helen was! :) I think that if Helen was born in our time, that antibiotics could have prevented her from losing her sight and hearing.
