The Miracle Worker / An Inner Voice 

I loved Patty Duke, but Helen was a young child when this happened. It's hard to find a child who can do this role so well, and this actress nails it.

People shouldn't compare this version to the 1962 version. This one was in color, it was for a new generation of children and family, it was more subtle and age-appropriate. I'm a 90s kid and grew up with this version. Both were for different audiences. It really taught me about Helen Keller and her life. I really think Alison Elliott did great playing Annie Sullivan. She has the Victorian-era look, too

It’s hard to think a little girl had this live like this ❤️

This easily the best 'Helen' I ever saw. The child not only acted brilliantly, she was the right age for the part.

Beautiful ..the child knows after they are loved ...I love this movie

There is so much that can be learned about parenting and educating from the story or experiences of Helen Keller and her teacher.

This child act so well

I have this version of this movie on video. This video on here sure makes me want to see this again.

It's interesting how she matches her slaps and such. I would normally believe this is wrong but you can see that it is almost a from of showing her respect in that she does not baby her or treat her as a child that is beneath her but rather as an equal. She is meeting her where she is at and validating her resistance by fighting back accordingly rather than playing a punishment game. She does not think she is too good for Helen but rather makes it clear she is her match. Very interesting.

This girl has clearly been thinking more about really playing someone who's blind, deaf and mute. You can tell how young as she is, she already was a professional actress. Melissa Gilbert had less acting professionalism, but way more experience. And of course Patty Duke was a natural talent. So they all were great.

She taught her how to operate in accordance how her own actions would make others feel too. interesting.

Tame slaps. Patty and Anne were the real deal.

The music in this is gorgeous. So wonderfully expressive, like the score of a silent film. I love it. Also, I know I'm probably going to get a lot of flack for this, but Hallie Eisenberg was a much better Helen than Patty Duke, and I say this as someone who is visually impaired myself. Duke's performance, while I'm sure it was groundbreaking for its time, now comes across as someone pretending at not being able to see and hear. Eisenberg, meanwhile, seems to be truly embodying what it would be like to be blind and deaf. Her gestures are much more natural, not as over-the-top and mugging for the camera as Duke's (yes, I know the '62 film was heavily based on the stage show, which requires different, broader acting for the people in the back).

Fantastic acting loved it I will watch it all the teacher never gave up the young girl was amazing xx ❤❤

This is a wonderfully moving film. I know this scene wasn't intentionally funny but I involuntarily laughed at the slapping part. I just thought that the girl must be pretty strong to make someone's head fly back like that when slapping.That teacher should learn to block... But then I realized how scary it must've been for the girl to not see or hear anything and yet be grabbed and restrained like that.

Soooooooo nice Mrs Sullivan

Around the 2:48 mark- little Helen was feeling out the food with her feet to understand where she was exactly. She knew the dishes of food by smell. Thus where the end of the table would be, where it would be open enough to TEST her _miracle worker_ , with a "Trust Fall". Something I dont remember from the other two movies, maybe something unique to this one. Well done.

Hallie Kate Eisenberg did an amazing job as Helen, what an incredible actress to perform like this at the age of 8.

This is a beautiful performance

I can’t imagine not being able to see or hear. It must be terrifying. The miracle worker was one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. This version is very good too. Poor Helen.

That little girl is a brilliant actor

Anne is one determined woman. No matter how much Helen acted out and resisted, Anne didn't give up on her. She even tried to make Helen pick up her spoon herself after throwing it away.

Amazing movie. I cry when I watch it!!!!

It's so funny that they slapped each other

Dear all, I've purchsed the DVD with this film and watched this; the plot is so touching... However, the music in the DVD is not so distinct, as it is here; thank you again for posting this heart-piercing movie... P. S. William, your name goes right after the stars' names in the beginning! So pleasant to see it there.

Gente isso é história real de Helen Keller e esse anjo que apareceu na vida dela, a única que conseguiu educa-la e fazer dela uma mulher brilhante, não há nada que pague o que Anne fez na vida de Hellen! Hellen ficou conhecida no mundo inteiro ao se tornar, escritora, ativista, professora e advogada!!

Toda trilha é linda assim como a historia e o filme em si!! Muito booom!!

I really love love in this version

This was more realistic to me. The little girl was at the right age. The other kids that played Helen Keller were older. ❤

Poor kid.I am totally on Annie's side but to realize your entire family left and you can't find them

top 10 anime fights

Helen learned not to mess with Annie.

Love it

This child is so cute

i saw this video in school today, the soundtrack is so beautiful thank you for composing this

Poor Helen :( she can't see 1:26 and I cried 😭😭😭😭😭 and she can't even get out!

What a good actress

I know y'all seen her perfectly go hack to that table right

the Helen is sooo cute 😘😘

next one plz do 1979 version

Helen Keller was 6, and a sturdy strong little girl. Annie Sullivan was short. The fights were epic as Annie began to train her. What you saw in Patty Duke's performance was Helen's blazing intelligence trying to break through. The reality of life in the South in the early 1870s (when Annie started her work) was poor, dilapidated for most who had lost the work hands for home and plantations and farms that had limited labor. Helen's family had few servants and lived modestly in a small town. The costumes and setting were a little much for the reality of it.

Why this Helen Keller don't have manners

5:55 have me thinking they couldn't speak the whole time

Who played Anne Sullivan here? Anybody know?

The best Hellen Keller movie is from 1962 with Patty Duke (Helen Keller) and Anne Bancroft (Annie Sullivan) (also the 1979 version with Melissa Gilbert and Patty Duke) than the Disney's.

*THAT'S BETTER* @ 5:44

I love

ヘレンの人生を知ると 映像化した全てのシーンに理解出来る表現がある気がする。 言葉を教えたサリバン先生 本当に尊敬致します。

Je m'appelle myrtille Thomas sabre et j'adore votre vidéo

nice working

I agree the BEST AN ONLY MOVIE WAS 1962 WITH PATTY DUKE AN ANNE BANCROFT NO OTHER MOVIE XX

...teacher would not need any fitness studio at a work like this😂🥰

This is a horribly dehumanizing depiction of such a wonderful woman. Historically, Helen Keller had communication before Miss Sullivan arrived. She definitely helped in Helen's education, but to give her all the credit for "helping this poor, helpless, feral child find a language" is not only misinformation. It's disgusting.

My wife knows ASL she is an interpreter. All 3 of my kids can talk in ASL.

the 1962 version is sooo much better

Is this the story of Hellen Keller? Or something else?

I Love

Que resistente la niña

إن الحياة تريد الصبر قليلا حتى تنحي ثمارها

Helen Keller sit up straight right now And eat your food.

she is very very very wild

How did she teach helen keller?

inlove

You gotta give it to her parents for not beating her ass after she broke everything.

Ein toller Film.

When was this made?

The original super nanny

Funny you. Uh you were

Is That The 1980's Coke A Cola Girl? If I Were An Actor, You Couldn't Pay Me Enough To (Fake) Slap That Cute Face !

Oh... Is the girl blind? Can you unreveal the myst? The soundrack is so... baroque and touching! And the whole scene... so pitiful!

I like to learn more about Helen Keller life

The hitting back is interesting, because normally you would not want to lose control and hit children as a response to being hit. It would teach them that the bigger person is justified in hitting, and not thinking that hitting is wrong. However, in this instance, the typical responses that would show the child hitting is wrong aren't available. For example, in toddler years, when a child hits you, they can look at your face and see that you are unhappy; you can tell them "ouch", you can even feign sadness to help the child understand that other people feel pain, too. With Helen, she hit her exactly the same way that Helen hits to help her make the connection that othet people have emotions and feelings of pain like her.

it``s a beutifoll

GET SLAPPED LOLLLLLLL

If a SPECIAL NEEDS teacher behaves and treats a student like this in this day and age he/she would be in jail. That is why we lose so many Hellen Kellers. So much despair, and so much ADHD etc and drugs for such illnesses. Plain old tough love helps way better than the treatments today.

BUT DID SHE FOLD HER NAPKIN??

i feel so bad for her

i like helene keller

Poor helen keller that she got blind and could not talk and ive been watching helen keller videos at my school

1 : 26 made me cry

I read this story in Mrs angocos class

This is WAY too gentle compared to the original movie from 1962. If you're going to do a remake, remake a film that wasn't that good to begin with and try to make it better. But don't take a great, Oscar winning film, and try to rework it. It will just blow. This version didn't need to be done.

Helen I told you to sit down and eat your food but you didn't listen to me get down off the table now.

Poor girl couldn’t see or hear so sad

picture of least be a little more nicer to Helen

Heart touching 😢
