- Helen Keller stars in the 1954 documentary about her life. Anne Sullivan and Polly Thomson also make appearances. Narrated by Katharine Cornell, Produced by Nancy Hamilton. Enjoy!
why does helen look older than anne😭
Because she IS. The Anne in this video is a part-time helper..as the narrator in this video mentions. Helen's teacher, Anne Sullivan, died in 1936. This film was made in 1954. After Anne died, Polly Thomson, the other woman at the beginning of the video took Anne Sullivan's place. She had known Helen and Anne Sullivan since 1914. Thanks for your interest. I hope things are going well for you. Best Wishes! 🦋🌷🥀🦋
In the presence of a mere video clip of this remarkable soul, and I am shameful for taking my perfect senses for granted. Lord help me be more like Helen and see and hear and speak with my heart.
Hi Heather.
Yes, I think we could all learn a lot from Helen Keller's life experience. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Hope things are going well for you.
@@IamHelenKeller thank you for the reply. I live in the Shoals area, not far from her cherished birthplace. But those of us who live here tend to look past the miracle..
I am humbled. I learnt about Helen Keller at primary school and her story always stuck with me.
Let’s all give credit to Miss Helen Keller for everything she was able to accomplish in her lifetime. None of us could imagine how she went through life. God Bless you Helen.
Striking! I thought I knew the story of this remarkable woman; I sure did not realize the depths of her exceptional life! From conquering communication, to schooling, to collage, to Hollywood?! Wow! She did, indeed, conquer the world, much less her disability! What made this even more stunning was hearing her in her own voice! it pierces the soul! If one is feeling a case of the Mondays, or doesn't want to get out to bed, watch THIS! I am very much looking forward to part 2!
This is most amazing to watch ..... Happy Valentine's Day, Helen 💖
Hi Stephen. Thanks very much. I hope you had a nice Saint Valentine's day also. Warm Winter Wishes, my friend! :)
Watching this on a really bad day. My heart is warmed. So inspirational.
Hi Jo.
Thanks for your visit. I'm glad you enjoyed the film clip.
Hope things are going well for you.
Warm Wishes! :)
I'm in my 50s now but have loved Helen Keller since I was a teenager. My friend and I played Helen and Annie in our h.s. play! She was and always will be an inspiration!
Its an HONOR to get to actually hear her in this video. I admire her works, together with Maya Angelou ❤❤❤❤❤GREAT WOMEN..FOREVER INSPIRATIONS ❤
Legend..! A symbol of courage.. Very inspirational and heart warming..! Such videos are rare now.. Thank you for sharing.🌹
Thanks for the kind words. I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
Wishing you a lovely new day ahead, my friend. :)
Her story is fascinating and many lessons can be learned from her life decisions. This is a great documentary, well made so far.

Thanks very much, my friend.
So glad you liked it.
Polly Thomson is an angel in human form. She showed hope when this poor woman would have been kept in an institution without communication for her whole life. She showed the world people with disabilities are still capable of learning. And helped others along the way. It was so exciting to hear Helen Keller in an actual film.👼
I never knew she made a film ~ she's a pretty woman with a beautiful smile!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the film clip. Warm Wishes!
What an inspiration! Wow. I'm legally blind and have been since birth. I'm now 49. Life certainly has its challenges for me, as it does for us all of course, but to learn about how Helen overcame such obstacles that she faced, is just amazing. I do wonder what was going through her young mind as a 6 year-old that couldn't see or hear the world around her. How did thoughts process in her mind as she didn't yet know language? It must have been awfully frightening for her. Poor child. Anyhow, thank you for uploading this.
Read her autobiography. I just bought it. I was surprised how normal she seemed as a child. She knew how to get around the house and outside. She would play pranks and lock people in rooms, after she found out how keys worked.
I guess after years of being blind and deaf she got used to it enough to be able to navigate.
It’s a good read dude. Check the book out.
@@timgalaviz1322 thank you, I will.
I am proud to say that I share a birthday with her. I live in Alabama very close to Ivy Green her childhood home which is now a tourist attraction. I enjoyed this video very much thank you.
Wow, sorry, how old are you? She's fascinating, I'd like to meet her
Hi Heather. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. It's nice that you live near Helen Keller's old home. I wish I could visit it some day.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend! :)
She’s amazing, nothing can stopped her ♥️ It’s so interesting the way she communicate with people, her speech actually clearer than what I’ve thought. It’s a well made movie, the music is amazing!
Hi Indy. Thanks for your visit. Sorry about my late reply. But I haven't been on youtube very much recently. So glad you enjoyed the video, my friend.
I remember watching the film “ Mirical Worker” with Anna Bancroft and Patty Duke, I was about 7 years old. This film had quite an impact on me.
So being able to watch her life story on CZcams, I feel I personally know this incredible woman.
Hello dear friend, Helen Keller was indeed an amazing person who learned to speak and live despite the odds. 👍🏻🌼🌷 Wonderful old clips. Have a lovely weekend.
Thanks for the warm comment...it means a lot.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! 🌿🐼🦓🌿
Keller is one of my heros in history.
Helen's speech was amazingly good considering she has never heard voices .A fabulous Part 1 Helen and wonderful to see you back .Trust you are keeping well .Your visit has made my day :) Helena 👍 PS meant to say how apt this video is now Many are complaining they are socially distanced .I think Helen Keller would have said her part .Our lives will return to normal if we follow some simple rules .:. Just a thought .
Hi Helena. Yes, It's hard to imagine that she was able to speak at all. It must have taken a great deal of effort and patience on her part and Anne Sullivan's. Actually, it seems to me that her speech was a bit more clear when she was younger. But perhaps it's my imagination. Anyway...Have a great day!
I love these three beautiful and strong women. Thank you very much for the movie - it's almost unbelievable how many Helen Keller films you can find. I send you warm greetings from Germany. Stay healthy and confident 💗
Hi Ute. Thanks for the thoughtful comment. Actually there are more film clips of Helen Keller than many people may believe. But it's not always easy to find them. Sometimes I have good luck. It's always a pleasure to hear from you. I wish you a wonderful day, my friend.
This is fascinating and interesting to watch. I love hearing the old fashioned English accent they used to speak like in those days! Great to see this wonderful footage. 💗This is great 👍
It’s truly fascinating to see something like this, so very rare. To see how the brain functions without the certain things we take for granted.
Thanks for stopping by. it's a pleasure to see you here.
Yes...I think it's fascinating too.
So glad you enjoyed the old film clip.
This is so inspirational ..... Helen was a brave and wonderful woman.... really great to see this film.... thank you for sharing this my dear friend ☺️❤️
Hi Jennie. It's so nice to hear from you. Sorry for the late reply.
Glad you enjoyed the old film clip Best Wishes...always!
She lived an amazing life 💗 Thank you
I have been remembering her every day
Hi Pinku. It's always a pleasure to see you. Best Wishes! :)

I remember seeing this when I was a boy in the late 50s in fact... Great to revisit it again after all this time. A great story. Best wishes. -Ron
Yes, it seems to have been a popular classroom film at one time. I'm so
glad you liked it. Thanks for watching!
*_Hello Helen, an exceptionally impressive and beautiful presentation of Helen Keller. Excellent video, big like_*

Hi Richard. Thanks for your visit. I'm glad you enjoyed the old film clip. It's always nice to see you.
How so incredible scenes Helen! How so fantastic clip! Absolutely awesome! Thank you so very much my dear friend for sharing your so precious creation with us in your most exquisite way!
Thanks so much, my dear Katerina. I'm glad you like the old film. I'm always happy to see you, my friend. I wish you a beautiful new day ahead.
Absolutely Wonderful presentation! Congratulations! Thank you for sharing, my dear friend! Be Blessed!
GOD had to be with her and Anne
Anne was amazing. Just think how Helen's life would have turned out if she hadn't taught Helen everything. I wouldn't doubt Helen would have been put in an institution and shoved aside which happened to many in those times. And sadly those were the times back then. Thank goodness that didn't happen with Helen and thank goodness times have changed. We still need more changes for the disabled though. But we are getting there.
Beautiful video. thanks for sharing.❤❤
my friend, these old film music are beautiful, I love this sung melody. Good Sunday and may the Lord protect you.🌍🌺🙏🔔☕💖🎶🎶🌍
Here I am in 2024 July as I watch this enjoyable film. My Aunt Sadie was born in 1919. I wish I could ask her what she thought of Miss Keller and if she were aware of her.
I will state, Miss Keller had courage! Whew! Courage, brilliance, beauty, and sass. What a woman! 💖💃

You share lovely and sweet, videos of Helen Keller .. it always takes me away to a different place of knowing howm smart and courageous she was.. Have the best day...
Hi Nancy Marie. Thanks for dropping by, my friend. I'm so glad you enjoyed the little video. Best regards!
I love your channel! The videos are very unique and informative. Are you related to Helen Keller? It is amazing that you have all these amazing videos. Thank you! 🙂
Hi SHQ. Thanks for the warm comment....it means a lot.
No, I'm not related to Helen Keller. I guess you could just say I was a " Helen Keller Fan ".😮 I've collected the old film clips over the years from DVDs and the internet Etc... 🦋🌷🥀🦋.
Both Anne and Helen were amazing women. Anne sure was Helen's saviour. And Helen is my 10th cousin 2 times removed from my maternal lines. 😉
Love this series! 🌹🌹
Hello :) *Helen♡* - I still love calling you by that name. My apologies for my absence, but I truly missed your channel, the one who runs it, and whatever it holds. I will go through all your uploads until my 'data' runaway again.
I am starting here, for I was born that year. Although healthy, but I don't recall the day ;) well, my mother knew but she can't tell anymore.
Dear "Helen⚘" your tribute here is beyond my words ... And I thought I knew a lot about Helen's Keller life. How wrong I was. She was beautiful - no doubts! But so were her friends, and those who devoted their lives to her. If we do not care of each other after watching this, the we're doomed. And rightly so.
Much love - for now - Helen. I'll sent more on the next episode. ~P. xo
Beautiful film, lovely music. Nice presentation, than you for sharing
Her teacher Ann is amazing teacher
Wonderful sharing my friend!
Hope you are well and staying warm in this most awfully cold and snowy weather! ♥
Thanks for the nice comment. Well... I'm trying to stay warm, but this winter weather is really quite horrible...even here in the southern part of the U.S.... Hopefully it will be warmer next week. Best regards!
Beautiful video 👍👍 Thanks for sharing 🌹🌞🌈

Amazing lady.
Thanks for watching.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Wishing you a marvelous weekend!
Your v☆deo is great. Thank you. I applaud you. Helen Keller in Her Story
?how did Helen get her British accent?
The woman who is speaking unclearly is Helen. She is over-enunciating everything, which to Americans sounds slightly British.
Awesome Video
Thanks so much! :)
I always thought Helen Keller was quite pretty. There's something about her eyes-even though she can't see with them they seem to be saying quite a bit with the very intelligent mind behind them. It'd be intriguing having a conversation with her in sign language and for example asking her what she'd surmised about me from just walking across the room to greet her.
Iam new subscriber Arabic lady citizen actually iam regular subscriber to Suzanne light CZcams channel she is from Alabama state home town of Helen Keller when were kids we watched animation movie about story of Helen Keller dubbing into Arabic language she is well known around world Helen Keller is great example of strong will and real disabilities in mind not in sense or body there are some disabled people are more intelligent and creative than normal ones
Thanks for the nice comment. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
It's a pleasure to hear from you. I wish you a beautiful day.
No hand sanitizer in those days? Amazing woman ❤
This is cool
Wonderful theme and movie creation,dear Helen!!So beautiful and emotional!!😄🌹✨
Have a wonderful day and please take care!!~Macky:))💐✨
Hi Macky.
Thanks for the thoughtful comment. I'm glad you enjoyed the little video.
ilove the miracle worker with patty duke
Hi Wendall.
There have been many versions of the Miracle Worker.
But I think my favorite will always be the 1962 movie with Anne Bancroft and Patty Duke. Best Wishes!
I'm humbled by the bravery of this highly cerebral, great and accomplished woman!
May her soul continue to rest in peace, perfect peace. You're indeed a legend HK! Your good legacies live on. I love to identify more with your success stories great one!
She was disappointed that she couldn't talk normally. You'd think she'd just be happy that she could talk at all. Maybe it goes to show the mentality people had back then? They expected perfection.
Hi Melissa. Thanks for stopping by, it's a pleasure to see you here. Yes,
Helen's disappointment is a bit sad. Although I suppose she thought she could accomplish more if her speech was more understandable. But she accomplished a great deal anyway. Strangely enough, if you listen to her speak when she was younger, she seems to speak a little more clearly. At any rate..., I hope you have a wonderful new day ahead! ;)
@@IamHelenKeller Do you have any recordings of her talking when she was younger? Before I found this channel, I didn't even realize that there was any sound footage of her at all.
@@Melissa0774 Hi Melissa. Yes, if you look at my home channel page you should see a video listed under popular videos titled "How Helen Keller learned to talk". You can click on that. I think there are other youtube uploads from other people...but I think mine is the clearest. I have other videos of her speaking when she's older...but if I can think of any more of my videos where she speaks when she's younger, I'll let you know. Best Wishes... - Always! :)
@@IamHelenKeller Where do you get all of this footage? Are you a museum or non profit organization, or something, or just a private individual who does this for fun?
@@Melissa0774 Hi Melissa. I just upload Helen Keller videos because several years ago I noticed that there didn't seem to be many videos on youtube that showed actual film footage of Helen Keller. Wishing you a great weekend, my friend! :)
The narrator of this is the same one in the beginning of Disney's Cinderella.
Helen Keller is one of my few heros but shes defently on top
Hi Gail. Thanks for the kind comment. It's so nice to hear from you. :)

أنت الطفلة التي اجتهدت في دراستها

Thanks very much, my friend.
I'm glad you like the little video.
Great
Thanks!
Como puedo escucharlo en español?
Thanks for your interest. You can read the Spanish translation by clicking on the settings button at the bottom of the video, and then the "CC" closed caption button on the bottom of the video. And then select "auto translate" and then select Spanish. I'm not sure how accurate the subtitles translation will be. I think google search or youtube search engine can probably explain how to use the subtitles translation option. Have a wonderful day, my friend. 🦋🌷🥀🦋
wait why does she have a British accent if she was born in Alabama?
she couldn't hear herself talking.
She was taught language by an Irish woman. She used her fingers on Ms. Sullivan's lips and in her mouth to learn how to speak. Since accent is purely based on how your tongue and lips move, whoever taught her how to move her mouth would have more effect on how she speaks than anything else. Plus, she over enunciates due to not being able to hear her own voice. Which is often confused for a British accent by most US citizens.
It's ironic that Helen Keller who was mute deaf-and blind believed strongly in eugenics
Why?
Thats false , your confusing her with margaret sanger .
@@paloma_lopezexactly. Keller was anti-eugenics!
Did she also write 4 books of socialism?
Hi Michael. Thanks for stopping by. It's a pleasure to see you here. Helen Keller wrote 12 books, including an anti-war book.
She was a socialist and pacifist, and wrote several articles for socialist magazines, but I'm not aware of any books she wrote specifically about socialism. There is a book titled "How I became a socialist - by Helen Keller". But It's a collection of her socialist writings, and I believe it was written by someone else.
Thanks for your interest. Warm Winter Wishes! :)
