So sad when they discover she's completely alone..in the dark without sight or hearing. I'd be screaming too. The way her dad screams her name, as if he can angrily holler her name loud enough he can bring her back. Such a powerful scene. It always gets me.
Yes i am happy not to experience such a thing..It is horrible! Poor parents..Their daughter was very normal until her 19 months and after a fever of 3 weeks she is left completly blind and deaf..Poor kid and poor parents..they had to be horrified.
I was actually kind of scared the first time i saw it because of the screaming.
i always thought this part was so dramatic and funny
@@sheldonbenton5278 it is kind of over-the-top, I admit. Lots of older movies are. lol
@@SunBunz “over the top” wym ?? How would you react if this happened to your child out of nowhere ?? You would be chill ? This is a realistic reaction .
That's like something out of a horror movie. It would be an absolute nightmare if I had a baby and all of a sudden she went blind and deaf. I can totally understand the mother's panic and why she screamed senselessly. What else could you do? It was in the 1800s and there wasn't any immediate sources for emergency like dialing 911. You're left totally helpless. You don't know what's going on with your child. All there is to do is panic...
The Greek Pianist or he
Exactly. It’s like something out of the Texas chainsaw massacre
To think that back in the day they would put u in an asylum for being blind and deaf. It was looked at as a mental health issue. Not a physical one. No wonder the mother's scream pierces the nerves. It's heartbreaking.
zipporahrmusic that has gone on from those days up until 1973 or 1974
Very sad. They simply did not have the proper resources to help children like Helen Keller like this then, which was why many people gave up on them. That’s why Annie Sullivan truly was Helen’s hero because she believed in her. She was very ahead of her time and knew Helen’s mind had not been taken from her, even if her sight & hearing had been. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@katiejohnston988 very weird how Helen never publicly spoke wrote a book or communicated with anybody else other then Anne it’s like she was trained to be a parrot lol
Thank God for our understanding.
Not true at all. She went to college, and wrote her memoirs and a newspaper column. She was a good writer. She was also a Socialist and argued in print for Socialism, which is why you don't hear much about her works
To retain your audience’s attention, you have to present them with something that’ll hook them instantly. This is one of the greatest examples I’ve ever seen in film history.
Catherine H. My thoughts exactly 😎.
I have profound respect for Arthur and Kate Keller. They didn’t lock Helen away in an asylum, cut her off from their life, and pretend that she was never their child. Nor did they deny the fact that Helen had issues and go through life expecting everyone to just adapt to her instead of helping her learn to adapt to life with her struggles.
They loved Helen with all their hearts and they just didn’t want their problems with her to go away, they wanted to help her live life. It reminds me of my parents when they noticed I had a disorder. Now I wasn’t nearly as bad off as Helen but I know my parents struggled with understanding me and that I didn’t make things easy for them. And like the Keller’s, my parents didn’t live in denial of my problems and they never stopped loving me or trying to understand me.
I cant be the only one who keeps replaying the part where she realizes she’s blind and deaf, right? It’s so good- the acting was so good that even I felt afraid for the baby.
I feel sorry for Helen, at birth she was able to see and hear the world around her, until 19 months, she lost all of her hearing and seeing forever...Kate reacting to her baby not seeing, or hearing must have been the scariest thing in the world for a mother, including her father. But back than it shows you have alone Helen was for half of her life, and than now a days, people who are blind and deaf have some cures to fix it.
At 0:51, Kate knows right away that something is horribly wrong.
In the original production done on Playhouse 90 (on television in 1957), there is an even more graphic, visual effect which shows the baby's point of view and sight and sound fade away to black and silence. It is truly creepy!! Unfortunately, it is a kinescope and probably not legally released for public view.
I just watched the whole movie and then returned to this scene. The parents clearly loved Helen. Their anguish when they realized she can't see or hear is so sad!
Feeling sorry for her is the last thing Helen would want from people. Once Anne Sullivan arrived to hold Helen accountable and deem her worthy of education as one would for any other child, she was able to go on to live a full, happy life. The only time Helen's blindness and deafness impacted her quality of life was when her parents shaped their treatment of her around what they thought she was capable of--or rather, not capable of.
@@AliciaNyblade indeed
I first saw this when I was 7 and it sets the tone perfectly. The horror her parents feel when they realize what’s happening and what their daughter is experiencing and then seeing what her life is like later, frustrated and lashing out, powerful stuff. It makes the journey Helen Keller has with Anne Sullivan all the more beautiful. What an amazing, glorious film.
The actors who played the parents are dynamite in this scene
Their realizations of pure horror when they discover a double curse on their daughter are haunting
This is the most terrifying scene that doesn't involve someone getting killed in cinematic history! I had to watch it through three times and I'm still freaking out! It's like someone is being disemboweled in front of Kate Keller!
I like the cinematography in this scene. The use of low angles puts us in the crib with Helen.
1:37 okay I know this is a very serious situation but can we take a moment on how her scream was on the beat of his clap
Stranger.Things.Potter 9 3/4 lol Such rhythm!
Well wouldn't YOU flip out if you found out your kid was blind and deaf? Think about it for a minute.
k miller I'd top all that until I'dve browned my shorts, then I'd go running through town like a lunatic screaming.
k miller when they both started making noises, it felt like I was listening to a call of duty zombie
I would 😢
I don't think i would, if we're talking nowadays when we have the resources to help our children's disabilities and less stigmas around these topics. In that era, however, I really dont know what I would do.
I will go bonkers if this happened to my kids. I will be screaming like a lunatic mad woman, going nuts and crying tears and wailing like a complete maniac. I'd flip out, go into a frenzy and scream and cry in tears in horror, pain, rage sadness, dementia, insanity, madness, pain, fear, loss, delirium, and mental instability.
This scene was rather intense, but it was really good. This is probably what it really was like when Mr. & Mrs. Keller discovered that Helen was left deaf & blind from her illness. They probably did realize it when she was unresponsive to loud sounds or could not focus on certain things in front of her. Any parent would have been as upset as this mother was if this was their child most likely, I know I would be. How devastating. 😔
When I was first told about Helen keller I was a child in school. Seems like when you called her name, she would smile & be alert. Then when you snap your fingers, she would blink. So for the parents to do that & their daughter not reacting, they know something was wrong. I don't wish this upon no one! No parent or baby deserves this.. it would have been nice if Helen could have had surgery to regain some sight and she can see her family & teacher. Even if it were temporary. R.I.P Helen
Our teacher showed us this scene from the movie because we were reading the book, her scream was so good that I just had to see it again-
While nowadays it may seem a little overdramatic, back then most deafblind people like Ms. Helen Keller wound up in an asylum, and there was no cure at the time.
Yep, this is usually what did happen back in the day. Many parents of children with special needs tended to sort of “give up” on them since they just figured their children would not really have any future whatsoever. There were no cures or even real proper resources to really help these children back then. That’s why Anne Sullivan is just amazing as she was so ahead of her time and could see that Helen was, in fact, a very bright girl who was literally trapped in an impaired body. Annie could feel Helen’s frustrations from having to live this way and knew all she wanted was to be understood by those around her. She literally saved Helen’s life. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
In many cases, there's still no cure, but thankfully there are many more resources for those who are affected by disabilities.
There was a cure for the blind
Ms. Sullivan had multiple eye surgeries could have given Helen the Surgery
The dad looks like abraham Lincoln
Given they were from Alabama and he was a confederate if the real man did look anything like that wonder how many times he almost got shot during the war. "Boys it's Lincoln!" 😂
with a mustache haha
Helen proved that you shouldn't let a disability stand in your way...she definitely made Alabama proud with all she was able to accomplish.
I remember watching this in 7th grade English class and her scream was so loud that the class next door heard it
Excellent acting all round
The excorcism of Helen Keller
I watched this in reading today and we all thought they were slapping the baby!
we did too xD
Molly Tittle O_o Were you not looking at the screen??
Molly Tittle I thought the same thing too. I'm like wtf the baby may be blind and deaf, but she can be crying in pain if he is slapping her, or so I thought.
You all must be blinder than Helen
I'm in 8th grade, we watch it
I'm reading this play right now and I remember watching this movie a few years back. Such amazing acting and an emotional experience
Awwwww this is just sooo sad!! Poor Helen!! I would probably have the same reactions of her parents if that was my child!!
If I would have experienced this it would’ve broke my heart learning the fact that my baby won’t remember what I look like or call me mama with words from their mouth I feel her pain.
I love this movie so much it is so amazing how she learn to talking without seeing or hearing
First time I saw this scene: 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Their anguish and desperation is so sad. Throughout the movie, it's clear they loved their child very much. How awful to find her in that state back then.
Well that escalated quickly...
When you try to get your child’s attention from their phone
Those poor parents. I couldn't imagine the horror they feel knowing their child cannot hear or see. This scene is so tragic.
I Saw This At School Today It Scared The Poop Out Of Me
L think this is an amazing movie and Anne Bancroft and Patty Duke are stupendous, by the actress playing her mother really chewed up the furniture in this scene!
Helen Keller's dad yell at the baby. 😂😂😂😂
"Kraus" was actually beautiful here.
Jimmy quoting the story of Jacob wrestling the angel kinda symbolizes Helen wresting her blind and deafness and the water pump was her receiving the blessing of understanding sign language with Anne as the angel.
That was an amazing accomplishment by an incredible person, Anne Sullivan, or as they say "Miracle Worker". She was a saint to have so much patience and kindness to teach someone with 2 major disabilities. It's hard enough to communicate to someone with 1 of those disabilities that is was a miracle to get through to Helen who was deaf and blind. It was an equally amazing accomplishment for Helen Keller to go from basically being a rag doll to graduating from such a prestigious college at the age of 24. I still can't believe that she could even function as a regular human being with her disabilities. Great story and ending for two incredible people.
When I first learned about Helen. It was a sad unfortunate story.. wish she was cured but regardless look what she has accomplished. Being able to communicate with language while having two major disabilities. She graduated from college & I didn't even get my associates!
We watched the movie and read the book in class, I would say that this movie is pretty good👍
0:33-35 “We’ll have your father run an editorial in the newspaper.” Funny she says that, because after this movie, Patty Duke’s (Helen Keller) on-screen father in her show is a newspaper editor.
A good movie
Am i the only one who is watching this on 9/9/2021 ... i'm a teenager...and this is the first black and white movie i ever watch
I replay the scene where she slapped her mom and trying to get words out omg😢😢😢
I saw the other miracle worker movie that was made in 2000 and I liked it. Kind of disappointed they did not show this part.
Honestly, you have a point
The first time I saw this scene was during an elementary school lesson. I thought the parents freaking out
I feel really bad. I was about to cry lol....
The doctor literally finished examining her not two minutes ago. Are you seriously telling me that he didn't realize that she was both blind and deaf, or at least one or the other?
You can hear Miss Kraus in her voice
The acting. Wow.
I'd go mad and Bashit crazy.
Overacting
There are a few wonderful film adaptations of The Miracle Worker. However, this is the only one that includes this scene.
riveting.....
For some reason when she yelled “captain” I thought she was yelling “James” but Helen’s father’s name was Arthur so that wouldn’t make sense
He was a Confederate captain. They were from Alabama.
*James* was *Helen's* half-brother; *Arthur Keller's* son with his deceased first wife, *Sarah.* It was also the name of *Anne Sullivan's* brother, who died of tuberculosis as a child.
So dramatic GOOD GRIEF!!!
Agreed. When the parents are screaming, the acting is just WAY too theatrical.
Then close ya ears nd eyes see how helen ma feel tf
Its dark for helen
Even today this would be horrifying.
I bet Katie and Captain Keller were proud of Helen.
they did amazing over acting
She had a high fever and sick also
Dylan Kaulukou-Chang high fever can kill easily. This was scarlet fever, it may cause high fever, but the fever can be treated and will lower for a while
It's sad
I bet Kate and Captain Keller were proud of Helen.
God... DAMN! 😰
Did the doctor tell Helen’s parents she was blind/deaf before this scene & they were just in denial until the realisation hit them, or did they only find out in this moment when Kate screamed?
Helen proved that you should not allow a disability stand in your way...she truly made Alabama proud with all she accomplished.
I would argue that it was Anne Sullivan that proved it.
1:42 HELEEEEEEEEN!
I feel bad for Helen
What did the Helen look like right there? When she was going blind and going deaf
Was trying to watch this then on the screaming my dad came in saying "hey shouldn't watch stuff like that"
Don't know what he thought I was watching I just told him "what? I'm watching the miracle worker" with very confused face
Thats how people react when I flash them in call of duty
😢
Thats sad
Wow
What Would Lois Griffin Say??
What did she call captain Keller? Gem??
1:42
They yellin at a baby
1:36 When I saw this for the first time, I thought he was slapping her!
Dramatic
:59 is the look of pure horror
Hi guys whole lotta fellas
at the end of the clip it looked like caption said idiot
Annie Auermann He was just screaming Helen, not idiot.
I am do a report on helen keller for school poor helen but she leared how to do stuff
Thought the same thing watched it in my class and we all started laughing
Was it the overacting
😱😱😱
Omg. Calm your farm
I watched this in class and man it was,funny I laughed so,hard!
Scarlet fever did this.
Is she really blind
Not the actress, the real Helen was
Is he beating the child ?
No He's Clapping His Hands Together
Her dad was overacting when he said idot
What are the odds of having two senses disabilities at the same time?
Da3nyT_01 I had two grandparents who were both deaf and blind since birth.
@@SunBunz I mean, going deaf and blind at the same time
@@proudMudbl00D_6 I'm not sure, statistically. But I think it would be rare. I'd Google it...
Scarlet Fever
My mother watched this movie on the TV many times, but I couldn’t make myself like it, because the acting was overstating like a stage performance.
The producer or the director would be unfamiliar with difference between stage actings and ones suitable for movies. David Bowie already had experience stage acting on the Elephant Man, though he quietly acted in Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence.
I cannot BELIEVE people think this is good lol they're acting like b-movie horror protags finding a disemboweled corpse. girls deaf and blind, not frankenstein's monster. "HER EEEYYYYYEEEEESS SHE CAN'T SEEEEEEE" oh my god! the drama lmaooooooooo
このお母さんの演技、ちょいちょい目がイッちゃってて怖い(笑)
EVERYONE WHO THINKS THEY'RE WATCHING THE WHOLE MOVIE HERE: YOU AREN'T!!! The movie clips from "movieclips" are only 2 to 4 minutes each, and 4 times 10 is only 40 MINUTES!!!
no shit
WHY IS HE YELLING
Helen s Father is trying to see if Helen Can hear HIM.Any parent would cry or shout if Her baby didnt respond and look straight ahead..and out of despair.
Whoever says Faye Dunaway overacted in "Mommy dearest" should watch THAT actress..
I think this one is closer to what really happened
The movies wrong
Anne Sullivan would today be arrested and put into prison for the way she treated Helen. It is an interesting question to ask, who thinks Anne abused Helen.
Lol Harvard graduate ?
First, that lady don’t need to scream like that, second of all, me and my class mates thought that guy was slapping the baby for a second 😂
So sad that Helen keller had a disability for people that have disabilities the best thing that you can do is not to make fun of them.
The mom screams like she's in a horror movie. Tone it down, lady!
Daenarys Turner This was in the 1800s. The parents had every right to react this way. Most if not all disabled children were either housebound or sent to asylums.
nerdieone1 Jesus, that's horrible.
Daenarys Turner
Yeh. :( if you can find the clip, Annie talks more of her childhood & those asylums where she stayed.
Daenarys Turner
On a lighter note, Game of Thrones fan? *points to name. :3*
nerdieone1 Yes. And?
I know this is so fucked up but this scene still makes me laugh
