The moment where, now that she understands everything around her has its own name, Helen points at Annie as if to ask “what is your name?” with tears in her eyes … recognizing for the first time that this person has been trying to help her all along and feeling a newfound love and gratitude of immeasurable depth towards her … that’s a cinematic moment, right there.
Suddenly, she left her mom and dad after hugging them to look for “ her”… cause she is the source of knowledge and the source of “breaking through” to a new wold!
[ or perhaps solely in your mind ]
Annie was the first to see Helen not as a wild animal or a troublemaker or a "mental defective" but as an intelligent human being ravenous for knowledge, exploration, freedom, and connection. And she gave her all of those things in the form of language. A miracle, indeed.
Annie had some experience with a deaf-blind person before. While a student at the Perkins School for the Blind, she met Laura Bridgman, who had lost her sight, hearing, smell, and taste after scarlet fever. Bridgman was educated by Samuel Howe, learned Braille and manual alphabet, and was the most educated deaf-blind person at the time, until Helen. Bridgman was elderly, her achievements mostly forgotten by then, and Annie forged a friendship with her that helped Annie become proficient in fingerspelling and laid some groundwork for teaching Helen. Helen's mother had read about Bridgman in Charles Dickens' "American Notes" and wrote to the Perkins School hoping to find a teacher who could help Helen.
fraud
language is the one thing that encompasses ALL our lives and allows us to communicate the world we understand around and within us: language is everything
I'd say Mrs. Keller saw her as someone who was more than an animal, etc.: it's she who insists on finding someone for Helen, and she has the marvelous monologue about Helen's intelligence.
I think because of how aggressive she is touching things to learn what they are is what makes this so touching. Helen finally is seeing the world for the first time and doesn't want to wait, she's so excited.
As was said, it was putting two and two together; for it just wasn’t aggressive touching in Helen’s case; it was also learning - thirsty learning - because of awakened understanding…
@@terencedove5047 Well said. ❤❤
I SEE what you did there
That raw scream of victory - “She KNOWS!” Anne Sullivan’s actress was on point.
That would be the great Anne Bancroft. A tremendously talented actress of the stage and screen, who was married to director Mel Brooks!
This scene is wonderful,actually the most touching of the whole movie.Helen makes the connection between the fresh liquid pouring into her hands and the word "water"and she knew at that second that everything had a name and was invaded by joy and hope..i got tears into my eyes each time i see it .The true Helen keller asked for at least 20 things this same day and learnt to "say""mother,"father"sister...just beautiful!
Not to mention, water is seen as a symbol of sorts for life. That one word, that one realization, gave her new life.
It shows her desire to learn.
Eddie Eaves Earlier in the movie, her mother mentioned that Helen showed intelligence even as a baby before she went blind and deaf at 19 months, she could identify water and pronounced it as “wa-wa”.
Hello, I am a fan of Helen Keller, and Helen learned 30 new words on that day. :) Makes me wanna take sign language club in my school.
@@FireMinstrel I love the symbolic part where Helen pulls away from her parents to go to her teacher, leaving home, new life, etc.
You can see in these scenes why Patty Duke's performance got her an Oscar at such a young age. The physicality, the way she seems to look and point "through" Anne Bancroft, the way she hardly even seems to blink in the scenes I've seen, and that tear coming down at the end of this scene, and again, without blinking is just incredible. I have to check out the whole movie.
Anne too, they play off each other so well the intensity then the relief and joy they both feel
@@tomgallowitz Definitely. The way they play off each other is why it's so effective.
@@Andrew_Warden and probably why both won the Oscar, they really had to bond well for the relationship to be genuine
@@tomgallowitzThey had been doing this every night live on Broadway for a couple years at this point. They had it down to an exact science.
don't forget to 'sound the bell'
The entire movie is a MasterClass in acting. This kind of performance hasn’t existed for years. Brilliant
Amen!
Simple jack ?
Sean Astin inherited his mother’s phenomenal acting ability…look at his scene-stealing performance in The Lord of the Rings. Two great, talented artists.
I always get teary eyes when Annie screams "SHE KNOWS!!!!"
Yup. Just now, my eyes are sweating. lol Dammit.
3:20 When Helen finally realized what Annie was trying to do all this time, there's a look on her face: "I'm so sorry..." (for being such a little shit to you LOL)
+SunBunz Especially when she gives Annie the keys, LOL.
Mona Irwin (gets choked up) ;)
You can see her cry. I'd bet from relief, joy, and horror at just how much chaos she had created.
I teared up 2
I just cried a little when she tried to talk. The freaking acting by patty duke is mind blowing
Most incredible movie! Patty Duke was just 16 when she won for this, becoming the youngest Oscar winner at the time. And Anne Bancroft was brilliant, a well deserved Oscar
Makes you think how many children suffered the same fate as Helen, without someone to help them. Heartbreaking.
a lot of people don't know about it too
One of my favorite movies of all time. The simple concept of things having a name being understood unlocked an entire person stuck in her own mind. Such a beautiful story.
In just a few short days, it will be eight years since my miracle worker departed from this earth. We met in middle school and we were both in 8th grade. I was a lonely autistic boy in a new school that people didn’t take a second look at. She saw me sitting alone at a lunch table and asked me to come sit with her and her friends, from there on she set a chain of reaction in motion that still goes on to this day. She brought me out of my shell, took me under her wing, helped me get around school, always told me how amazing I was, always made me feel better with her brilliant sense of humor, taught me that my autism doesn’t have to consume my identity, and she left a hand print on my heart. When I graduated high school, her family awarded me her scholarship and I successfully went to college and graduated having made the National Honors Society and Deans List.
Allie Castner, forever my miracle worker, best friend, and guardian angel. Someone who cared enough to make an impression and change that lasted a lifetime.
What happened to her?
@@drakemulligans3732 what part of "departed from this earth" don't you understand?!
@@nicklewis470 you don’t have to be rude.
@@gem9766 how was that rude?
@@nicklewis470 the fact that you don’t know
I’m not someone who enjoys sappy scenes in movies. Usually I find them super cringy. But THIS. THIS made me bawl. Helen’s utter ecstasy, Anne’s realization and relief, her parents hugging her in rapture, the emotion in the words “MOTHER, PAPA, SHE KNOWS!” And then the whole thing quieting down to the somber ending part in which Helen learns the word for “teacher.” It still makes me either cry or laugh every time I see it.
This is far from a sappy scene, this is plain awesomeness.
When I first saw this movie, I was so frustrated that she was going back to her old way... then THIS part happened...and I started crying with joy and aw. Such a powerful scene =)
I fall to pieces every time I see this movie
She finally opened her eyes
Indescribable...but the look on Patty Duke's face once she understands Anne as "T-E-A-C-H-E-R"...I sob every time.
I admire how stubborn and persistent Ann Sullivan was with Helen who was spoiled and unruly. She was like a wild child. It must have been exhausting...
She didn't give up on what probably seemed impossible.
That is the exact definition of " calling !" Its what Ann Sullivan was " called to do !
You should admire too how persisting, strong and clever Helen was. Way more than Annie. Annie could go somewhere else anytime she wanted - Helen had nowhere to go.
@@elektra121 if you read the book, Annie was blind as a child, but not deaf. Not too long before she came to the Kellers as a teacher, she had an operation that restored her sight (some of it anyway). That's why she needed the dark glasses. Her brother died in the asylum, still a boy. They didn't remove the body for days, and Annie pretended to play with him as if he were still alive. She grew, and learned to navigate the facility. One of the doctors there wanted to start a school for blind children and worked with Annie to develop the skills. She was doing pioneering work, and she could earn a living at it. Helen's parents were fairly well off, which is how they heard about the doctor's methods. They could have paid for her care as she got older, but she was so wild, and she was growing up. They hoped she could be civilized. The doctor sent Annie, who knew she could be taught much more.
For her part, that moment at the pump, Helen had a memory of when she was still a TODDLER, learning to talk. She had been born a normal healthy little girl, but contracted meningitis at like age 2 or 3 which left her blind and deaf. She remembered learning how to say the word "water," and finally connected it with Annie's finger signs.
It wasn't so much a matter of being smart - just surviving as children proved they were both clever - or even being tenacious. Each woman needed someone else to unlock her future. Neither one could have done it on her own.
When she says teacher… that’s so touching
As a special needs teacher, I am undone by this scene.
Oh yes. This is the best scene of the movie.
Haha, I think I've seen that same comment on every clip!
The dining room scene is a very close second, though...
Yeah I know right?
It just wrecks me everytime.
As someone who grew up in the "special education" system in school (I've been visually impaired since birth) the part where Helen gestures to Anne to ask, "Who are you/what are you called?" and Anne answers, "Teacher," moves me to tears every time. It really does take uniquely empathetic people to specialize in teaching students with disabilities and to do it well, because the teachers who are genuinely good at it are the ones who see the disabilities as simply a part of their students rather than things that need to be "fixed" or "overcome". The only time Helen's blindness and deafness were holding her back were when her parents shaped their treatment of her around what they thought a blind/deaf person was capable of--or rather, wasn't capable of. Once Anne arrived and believed in Helen enough to hold her accountable and consider her worth educating as one would any other child, there was no stopping Helen from becoming the badass she later went on to be while still being blind and deaf. Anne and Helen are amazing women who should be remembered and celebrated as their individual selves and the famous teacher/student team they became. They are queens in various disability communities, but especially the blind, d/Deaf, and d/Deaf-blind. Rest in peace to them both. Blessed be.
I'm slow of speech and hearing I'm in my 30s sorry for any misspells.
I'm from central California.
This is how a therapist feels when he or she is able to help her patient or student. Sense of awe and joy. As a physical therapist myself when I see my patients able to walk and people expected them to be bedridden. I bawled. If you love your job by helping people it's such a wonderful feeling at the end of the day.
0:17 When Anne pumped water & Helen felt it and Annie spelling it, THAT was the point Helen came out of her shell. But she didn't just come out. She CRASHED through that shell!
Out of all the Miracle Worker movies, this is the one with the best Water scene! Actually it is the best of all the Movies period!
The version with Patty duke and Melissa Gilbert is bad because Melissa Gilbert was too tall to believably play a 7 year old.
The 2000 was…. just horrible.
Some of the most dramatic and meaningful scenes of this incredible film. The acting is superb in all its complexity. The musical background adds to the drama in all its humanity. I saw this film in New York City in 1962 and stayed with me forever. It remains one of my favorite movies of all times. Its impact on me remains unchanged. I must have seen this film a dozen times. Anne Bancroft and Patty Duke, and the rest of the performers in these few scenes, are dramatically perfect and uniquely well directed.
I watched this movie for the first time when I was 10 years old. This was the very first movie to make me cry, and this was the scene that did it. This is genuinely one of my favorite scenes in any film, the acting is absolutely impeccable, that along with the swelling music and the frantic camera movements- it's a perfect example of how beautiful and emotional cinema can be, and on top of all that it's also an incredibly well done retelling of one of the most impactful stories in history. I could go on about this scene, it's so incredible
I think the scene is so beautiful. It also teaches that a miracle can take a lot of patience, love & work!
Read Helen's autobiography where she describes this moment of understanding. It's wonderf.
I'll do! thanks
Imagine that by the time you're conscious of your existence but it makes no sense. There are other entities, but have no idea what they are. Then one day a strange one shows up and starts tickling your hand and wants you to feel it's face. No clue as to what the hell is going on whatsoever. Then, you suddenly realize those ticklings only happennin a certain sequence under certain circumstances. You never realize you were in hell until youre out.
And I especially want to thank you for posting this with the comments on. I understand alot of people say cruel things. But I'm sure Hellen has heard them all. Or is aware of them anyways. Having said that, dont they think its kinda hipocritical that absence of communication was the whole point of this movie, yet the comment setions were turned off in some of the other clips. If there was ever a time to leave comments on besides here, I couldnt tell you where it is. That is outstanding of you!!! 👏👏🙌👏🙌👏🙌.
Sean Astin's mother -- so easy to see that on the young Patty Duke's face. What a movie and what great actresses -- Anne Bancroft, Oscar for Best Actress; Patty Duke, Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. So well deserved.
" She knows " those words hit hard for some reason and it makes me happy and sad. I'm so glad Ellen Keller had Anne to help her out.
I cry every time. Every single time!
This scene never gets old !
Better than the Disney movie from 1999's!
Anne Bancroft and Patty Duke was amazing! R.I.P. to those talented women.
She learned wah wah as a baby before her illness made her blind and deaf and the water brought it back
I watched this in my 8th grade English class cause we had to do an essay about Helen Keller. Some students were tearing up in class
I'm Just Erik I wish I had studied this movie in school
Some?
I haven't seen this movie in years but just watching this scene I nearly cried. Think I'm going to look it up and watch the whole thing.
I CRY AT THIS 😊❤️ REALIZING WHAT EVERYTHING IS!!!
I think Patty Duke deserves all the awards for this stellar performance. Unprecedented. Groundbreaking. Iconic. Unbelievable.
One of the greatest movie scenes of all time on many levels. I always cry when watching!
It took a month of Ann Sullivan teaching Helen Keller until this breakthrough came. I d
was surprised, I thought it took a lot longer.
Helen had a 160 IQ level… even at six years old she was smart enough to understand without ANY prior schooling of any kind.
We watched this scene in class today. Couldn't help but shed a few tears.
Helen has to memorize every name letter by letter because she can't hear what Anne is saying - she's just memorizing sequences of letters. She remembers there is a vocalization that goes with each word because she said her first word (wah-wah, or water) at age 6 months. But she hasn't learned how to pronounce anything because she hasn't yet learned to figure out sounds by touching the speaker's lips and throat.
Imagine the perspective of Helen’s parents. They hear Annie shouting random words, followed by “YES!” She frantically tells them to come outside, where Helen is reaching towards anything and everything. She grabs them, and Annie signs “mother, papa!” And finally cries out “SHE KNOWS!” As Helen embraces them both, and they know everything will be okay.
I was in the play "The Miracle Worker" in high school and even though I knew what was going to happen here, I still became a little teary-eyed every time.
I can’t watch this scene without being emotionally moved. Although these were portrayals, they surely gave more than mere insight into the possibilities of Helen and her teacher. It almost seems as though one could almost stand directly on that patio or on that ground in front of the two of them and palpably watch Helen’s metamorphosis happen…
She comes to the short part of her life when she remembers having eyesight and hearing. Yet at that point she makes the best of the remaining 80 years of her life and does a fine job of it!
Just felt like weeping uncontrollably, so I watched this scene yet again. I saw this movie again a couple of months ago, and literally was teary-eyed through the entire movie. Jeez!
Maybe my anti-depressants stopped working? :)
I weep every time I watch this scene.
This movie to me goes together with L'Enfant Sauvage by François Truffaut. Different style but same mesmerizing and moving portrait of a Teacher trying to help a Child to blossom.
Helen Keller once said: "Worst than being blind is having sight but no vision."
That sounds backwards.
i’m supposed to be reading the play for an assignment and i can not stop crying at this scene. especially when Annie shouts “SHE KNOWS!”.
This week while teaching my Chinese students, and one of them being a 10-year-old girl, I had given a discussion topic of "The Five Senses". After we'd talked at length about that, I suggested she watch this movie just as kind of an extra, fun homework assignment for next week. Of course I needed to look at it again myself since I hadn't seen it since my teenage years. I was astounded at the stellar acting by the whole cast, including Andrew Prine, and Inga Swenson, a quintessential southern belle who called her husband Captain, and of course Anne Bancroft (who was married 30 years to comedian and produced Mel Brooks) and Patty Duke. I noticed all the fabulous details noted by others below, but a couple extra things stood out to me.
One was the great acting (and no doubt directing) of Patty Duke portraying Helen trying to find/recover the sound of "wawa/water" in her brain. The way that her face twists muscles makes so much sense to me, maybe because I am an English teacher trying to help second-language learners to produce unfamiliar pronunciations. A sighted child has the benefit of seeing speakers move their lips and their faces when talking. Helen would have scant memory of this, so figuring out those contortions would be a challenge.
Another thing that stuck me was Helen's ringing of the porch bell. Without ever having heard the bell, she knew that its motion always brought people running. I imagined along with gathering them together, she was also just ecstatic and wanted to shake with joy, generating every feeling of vibration and movement within her soul.
Teaching and learning are sacred acts. We must remember this truth.
This scene smells of onions because I instantly tear up
Imagine being blind and deaf must be scary
Lorsque j ai vu ce film pour la première fois à la télévision, j habite la Belgique, j ai ete tres emue ! Film formidable, acteurs exceptionnels. Et j ai connu l histoire vraie ! J ai 67 ans maintenant et je suis encore émue de voir cet extrait ! Dommage que l on ne repasse ce film ❤
I saw this movie once in upper elementary. Every year we would learn about Helen Keller and Anne Sullivan’s story and of all the ways we learned it, this movie was by far my favorite way to learn it.
Hear Anne Sullivan cry out “she knows!” was so awesome. It made me cry and still does to this day.
“We the blind are as indebted to Louis Braille as mankind is to Gutenberg.” -Helen Keller
I literally can’t stop crying when I watch this scene ❤️
Such an extraordinary and inspiring story! Thank you!
I love this movie so much. They just don't make them like this anymore. This scene gets me every time. And the real Helen Keller was just remarkable. She was writing within three months of her miracle, and reading in five languages within a year!
Did anyone see her cry at the end!!!
When you are tempted to think that Providence has dealt you a bad hand think of Helen Keller. The realization of what this woman accomplished in her life given the obstacles placed in her path is nothing less than mind-boggling.
Greatest movie of all time
Arguable
@@bambulance2174 wth when did i post this comment. Ide remember what movie this is
@@Enozi-bd4nq the miracle worker
3:00 to 3:33 was the part where i bursted into tears!
Hellen said what will be worst than be a blind person ,a man who have sight without vision
Helen certainly made Alabama proud with all she did in her life.
RIP Ann& Patty
Helen Keller, you really are a miracle worker
The two of them are mesmerising and to say both are incredibly talented is an understatement.
How do you play this moment, when your character’s black silent world opens up so she can understand and be understood? Guess that’s why this was Patty Duke’s first role…
Sure gets a big tear in one's eye and joy in the heart.
몇번을 봐도 진짜 신들린 것 같다... 너무 감동적이야
This made me cry! So beautiful!
Teacher part always gets me
BAWLING JUST FROM THESE TWO MINUTES
I cried from beginning to the end!!
Water means life....
The movie's one great flaw is that it did not end with this scene.
Outstanding film, great cast!!
This is literally me showing my daughter there is a life outside her phone.
And her reaction when she finally started socializing.
Çocukken seyretmiştim ,şimdi 68 yaşımdayım,güzel filmdi
If it wasn't for that water pump, Helen would've been the most DIFFICULT person to ever try and cope with forever! Glad her family had it. That water pump *saved* her life!! 😃😁
To be deaf and blind.... my gawd how unfair. As a small kid watching this in school, I still couldn't fully understand the gravity of Helen's situation. Now I realize simply having her understand that life, and everything in it has a name, a place, and a purpose would be a task of enormous proportion. Poor girl was stuck in her own prison.
goosebumps. every time ♡
I want to cry 😭
Pero que gran actuación, se merecen un Oscar mínimo.
Lo ganaron, ambas!!
Just also saw the remake with Patty Duke/Melissa Gilbert and cried both times. Classic scene!
W A T E R WATER IT HAS A NAME, WAAAAAA,WAAAAA,,,, WAAAA,,, WATER GROUND PUMP *RINGS BELL* SHE KNOOOOWWWSSSSSS
Esa película es muy buena, es muy vieja, pero es un ejemplo a seguir en actuación
Whoa, incredible
Its amazing...
Watching this in 2x speed is so heart warming,
When I think of A.I. I think of this scene. It's the almost perfect metaphor.
No wonder they've got Academy winners..
Beautiful
Sad
Lovely
Just everything you want in a movie
Watch it and just TRY not to cry. I dare you. 🤗
😭😭😭 SHE KNOWS
I read this part and i cried, its so inspiring! people like her is miracles from God.
Makes me sob buckets every time
Annie sings the pump handle like it gonna break at any moment
