Review of "THE MIRACLE WORKER"

If you don't believe cinema is art. This nearly perfect film will change your mind. It will take you through a full range of emotion.

Using the vehicle of the story of a blind and deaf girl's discovery of the meaning of words, this film poetically and emotionally celebrates that singular gift we humans possess: language. It also depicts with deep understanding and identification the glory of that early relationship we all have one way or another, that between child and teacher.

The Miracle worker is a movie to be treasured. Inspirational and powerful, the story of Helen Keller and her relationship with her teacher Anne Sullivan is one that will lift your spirits and show you all that you have to appreciate in life.

A brilliant performance of Helen Keller, I see her frustration at being blind and deaf and her need to lash out at the world, Helen is locked in her world, a world that can only be frustrating for her. Persistence is the key as Anne's determination to help Helen goes through many ups and downs, I feel Anne's frustration with Helen as well as with Helen's parents, who overprotect Helen allowing her to do as she pleases. Helens father is a miserable frustrating man and his wife was wrapped around his finger.

In the end, this movie is really good! That makes you think through certain determination, perseverance, love and care; EVERYBODY COULD DO A MIRACLE and that is a FACT proven by this real story.
