I have a disabled grandson two weeks after he was born his heart stopped beating and they reanimated him after 10 minutes,that,s his disability one week later he had an operation on his heart,he survived anything.And no matter what happened bad around him,he just smiled.He is my sunshine and my warrior and today he is already 18 years old!
I am new to the UNITED STATES But fell in love with movies of 70-80s Richard Thomas is such a good actor! I have seen two movies with Richard: No Other Love and To Find a Son I would LOVE to live in the US of 80s
You must watch the Walton's. Great family show. Struggling farm family in Virginia during the great depression. Richard Thomas, "John Boy", is the main character of the 1970's television series.
Such a heart warming movie !!!! My oldest son is deaf so I can absolutely relate to this movie !!! The sound track ( music) is amazing for a low budget movie and the actors are all top notch !!!!!!
Beautiful movie. An excellent example of art of film making. You don't need a big budget to make a wonderful film. Good story and great acting suffices. Do not miss it. Lucky me to stumble across this movie. Wow!
A young Dennis and John Boy, who seemed to never age, can’t see him without thinking of The Waltons! It’s been yrs. since I’ve seen this movie. No F bombs said by John Boy! But, he did say we-Todd-did. 😂❤
I watched the original 1940s one recently and ending up fallen in likeness with it. I never knew that made another version of it. Hardship living with disabilities and never knew it the world can in favor or against you. Really touching movie
wonderful movie...love Richard Thomas!...great actor...brings such warmth to his character on screen...just as he did in the Walton's... which I also love! Great film...Thanks!
This is a great movie with outstanding actresses Johnny Belinda one of my favorite movies the deaf girl did such a great job it was sad what happened to her but I like the fact that the guy stayed with her😮 and he taught her life skills❤❤
When she killed Kyle in self defense, I was real proud of her. She was getting justice for herself and for her father, and protecting herself and her child. I hated how he thought he could just go to their house and take away her baby boy. Like who did he think he was ?! Yes, he was the father biologically but he wasn’t a the one capable of providing for his son, especially with the way he acted. 🥺🥺
I was actually looking for the original 1948 version. But I'm glad I watched as it was a really good TV movie I probably would have missed it if I had found the original. Thanks.
Richard Thomas was a Fine Actor. One thing I always respected with him was, he chose really Great Rolls. Stories of real people in times gone by.. Dennis Quaid and the others were Great Actors as well. A good movie about real people..
My ASL teacher made my class wat this film and answer questions for a test grade and I am obsessed with it now! You have no idea how many times I have watched it!
I saw the original with Jane Wyman. Superb. This version with 'John-Boy' and Rosanna Arquette ... well, it Hits-the-Mark too. Thank you for the film. :)
The original 1948 movie starring Jane Wyman and Lew Ayres is hard to beat, nominated for 12 Oscars. Jane Wyman who was brilliant, won the best actress award,
I wasn't sure at first, if I would even enjoy this movie. Most often than not, a re-make of such an iconic classic, NEVER lives up to the original!! I mean really, Agnes Moorhead & Jane Wyman!??! Both ladies, Queens of the Silver screen!!! I'm rambling....😂 What I want to express is my opinion / comment / feeling of this version..... Beautiful! Definitely lived up to the Original!! What a shame; Films now days can't or don't follow the clear path these forged!!! ❤
Oh the inner turmoil he has during and after that kiss! 1:04:30 so believable for these two characters. first time I've seen this version, much to appreciate in both versions, I have to say, this version would be more relatable for today's audience. great job John boy!
Deaf people are the most humble loving people I have ever known. They have a wonderful sense of humor and love to tease. They are loyal. I have many deaf friends; real friends.
My buddy could sign, we met a beautiful girl at the beach, he won her over, but I wished it were me. She was fun loving, teasing all the time just a pleasure, but I was a fast and furious dater at 18 and when they split, she vanished. Oh well. After getting married 2 times first a nag the other the silent treatment queen, hard to decide which was worse, but deaf would slow down things, and you wouldn't fight much I would think. Peace and quiet in old age is the best, so marriage to a deaf girl might have worked out.
Im a hillbilly and there is no doubt in my mind that im a million times smarter than your arrogant self and my manners are far more sophisticated than your stupid uneducated self !!! These hillbillies sure can act so what makes you any better than these Americans ????
People with lerning problums have come a longway in the world And they can do anything like any one else with the right training And live onthere own Givin the cha nce
what a beautiful movie thank you. loved the gal who played Belinda she's so beautiful and always love a movie with Richard Thomas in it too. thank you so much for sharing this.
I love Richard Thomas especially when he played John Boy Walton on The Waltons! I was born with a learning disability I was born 2 months early prematurely 2 pounds and 15 ounces! I was very lucky to go to a school for people with disabilities I learn in mine own way and graduated from high school and graduated from college I know work taking care of dogs and puppies my dream job I love it! Belinda can learn to do sign language so she can communicate in her own way! I love this movie watching it again a second time!
Thank you sooooo much for sharing !!! Haven't seen this in years . After I remembered the name finally , I had forgotten what it was about until now . Great movie !!
William Richmond is a dedicated aid worker, sent to a small southern community to help the poor. While there William meets Belinda, a young deaf mute, whose father wants no help. In time William teaches Belinda sign language and she starts to come out of her shell. Belinda is raped during a party, three months later its found out she is pregnant. The story gets dramatic when the father decides he wants to take the baby from Belinda. Great cast and performances in this made for TV tearjerker. Belinda played by Rosanna Arquette gives an Emmy winning performance as the deaf mute girl. Please be advised this film could bring you to tears, it did me.
A great story with a great ending. Ive always loved Richard (John Boy) and Rosanna. Couldnt have picked a better pair to play the main characters. Rosanna was so cute .
good for you. Belinda you had to protect your baby and your self. . thank you for posting this. excellent. movie. you. tube......this is one of the best movies I've ever seen in my life
Her father proud of her too !! He couldn’t protect her forever but that was his baby girl and he did everything he could for her. He died defending her honor but now she knows her rapist will never come near her or her family again.
I'm not normally a fan of remakes but this one is nearly as good as the original 1948 Jane Wyman, Lew Ayres film. It updates the setting in a more contemporary fashion. The only thing missing is the court room drama at the end but the use of the social worker as the hero rather than a doctor is a nice touch. This film reminded me of the 1965 film "A Patch of Blue."
Thank you, Specterman2000, for sharing this video with us! I've never seen the original version, but I saw this a very long time ago and I've been wanting to see it again. The performances of Richard Thomas, Rosanna Arquette, Dennis Quaid, and the rest of the supporting cast were amazing and completely believable. I've always loved this movie, so thanks again--I subscribed to your channel!! ~Karen
Just watched this rare jewel. Great movie I love the time Era. Very simple Great actors and actresses. Very good story. Anyone have any recommendations for another movie similar I'd love to hear from you 👍👍👍👍👍
I cried when I was happy, and I cried when they were hurt. It hurt me too. Some of my kinfolk would laugh and make fun of me, but I just empathized, with the characters, so much. I cheered when the man was killed, and I was glad that it was Belinda, who killed him and not John Boy, that way nobody thought that it was he who killed him, out of jealously. The only thing, that I wondered about, was why didn’t they call the police, when the whole thing started? I guess if they had done that, the police wouldn’t have been able to stop it either. I hated that Melinda’s father got killed. Maybe that was it. He was killed, in order for John Boy to see that she wouldn’t have her father to rely, on to help her. I think that John Boy would have married her anyway, because I think he really loved her ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great movie! So many good, young actors. I've only seen Richard Thomas in one other movie besides the Walton's, of course. Which he was awesome in. Great upload. 2 thumbs up. Thanks
These types of movies are so rare today. No foul language or lewd scenes. Plus there are principles and a moral to it.
Yes, there are plenty of morals here, like drunkenness, bullying, rape, murder, child abduction, spousal abuse and the list goes on...
Soooo true!!!!❤❤❤❤
and no sex just to fill a poor storyline out
a beautiful movie and hopefully the snowflakes will keep watching this kind of movie instead of bitching on other ones
Oh, yeah just like "The Walton's"
I have a disabled grandson two weeks after he was born his heart stopped beating and they reanimated him after 10 minutes,that,s his disability one week later he had an operation on his heart,he survived anything.And no matter what happened bad around him,he just smiled.He is my sunshine and my warrior and today he is already 18 years old!
precious
A true gift💞
U R great!
@@alkoff76 I will sayMy awesome grandson is GREAT but sometimes I,m great too.Thank you
God Bless you, Sir! Your grandson is quite lucky to have you for his Grandfather!
This movie has .. Benny and June vibes! Love the older classics! God bless all!
I am new to the UNITED STATES
But fell in love with movies of 70-80s
Richard Thomas is such a good actor!
I have seen two movies with Richard: No Other Love and To Find a Son
I would LOVE to live in the US of 80s
You must watch the Walton's. Great family show. Struggling farm family in Virginia during the great depression. Richard Thomas, "John Boy", is the main character of the 1970's television series.
It's amazing how you can make someone feel and how happy you can make them, just by being nice and treating them right, love this movie!
well said
yeah but most people will rip you off if you are nice to them
Such a heart warming movie !!!! My oldest son is deaf so I can absolutely relate to this movie !!! The sound track ( music) is amazing for a low budget movie and the actors are all top notch !!!!!!
This was a tv movie.
Excellent movie just great story

John Boy
Incredibly beautiful story of compassion and friendship that inevitably bloomed into something much deeper. Great movie.
I watched the original 1940s one recently and ending up fallen in likeness with it. I never knew that made another version of it. Hardship living with disabilities and never knew it the world can in favor or against you. Really touching movie
Finally a director that knows how to give a great ending and don't leave you guessing....
wonderful movie...love Richard Thomas!...great actor...brings such warmth to his character on screen...just as he did in the Walton's... which I also love! Great film...Thanks!
I saw the 1948 film, no other will beat it but this one, '82, is great too. Greetings from Cali, Colombia.
I agree.
This is a great movie with outstanding actresses Johnny Belinda one of my favorite movies the deaf girl did such a great job it was sad what happened to her but I like the fact that the guy stayed with her😮 and he taught her life skills❤❤

I saw this movie many years ago, 25-30yrs ago. First time l've been able to find it! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🍼🍼🍼❤❤❤❤❤
I love that movie
Ahhhh … the ending that I had hoped for! Excellent movie, excellent acting. Thanks so much for this upload. ♥
I was actually looking for the original 1948 version. But I'm glad I watched as it was a really good TV movie I probably would have missed it if I had found the original. Thanks.
This has always been one of my favorite movies growing up! I could watch it over and over and still not get bored!
Richard Thomas was a Fine Actor.
One thing I always respected with him was, he chose really Great Rolls.
Stories of real people in times gone by..
Dennis Quaid and the others were Great Actors as well.
A good movie about real people..
Good
Richard Thomas is such an all around actor.he also plays a believable U bad guy but playing johnboy Walton and good hearty rolls WA his thing
This movie makes a good point. Very few deaf people can hear nothing at all. Usually there is some hearing.
My ASL teacher made my class wat this film and answer questions for a test grade and I am obsessed with it now! You have no idea how many times I have watched it!
Didn't think I would like to watch this movie! Even better than the Walton's John boy! God Bless everyone who gave us this movie! Thank You!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😇😇😇
I saw the original with Jane Wyman. Superb. This version with 'John-Boy' and Rosanna Arquette ... well, it Hits-the-Mark too. Thank you for the film. :)
Lovely story and excellent acting by Rosanna Arquette and Richard Thomas!
The original 1948 movie starring Jane Wyman and Lew Ayres is hard to beat, nominated for 12 Oscars. Jane Wyman who was brilliant, won the best actress award,
can't beat Jane Wyman!!
Joe G ugh
Sorry 80’s beats all and you cannot deny it. 1948 has too much dust on it. Long live the 80’s
original indeed is far better than the remake.
.
I can never get tired of watching this movie.
Our school is having this play! I'm so glad this is a great story!!
I wasn't sure at first, if I would even enjoy this movie. Most often than not, a re-make of such an iconic classic, NEVER lives up to the original!!

I saw this movie about 15 years ago, & it left a great impression on me. Wanted to re-watch it again, but didn't remember name of movie, till now.
Oh the inner turmoil he has during and after that kiss! 1:04:30 so believable for these two characters. first time I've seen this version, much to appreciate in both versions, I have to say, this version would be more relatable for today's audience. great job John boy!

One of the best movies I've seen in a long time .thanks for making it available to see!
Wonderful, wonderful movie....I saw it many years ago for the first time.
Thanks for uploading this version of Johnny Belinda. Enjoyed it very much.
Excellent remake. Thanks for sharing!
What was the original
@@joannatorres5982 1948, Jane Wyman played Belinda and it is called Johnny Belinda. Good movie, classic. 😊
Now that was the ending that I was hoping for. ❤
I was so happy for Belinda !! After everything she’s been through, she deserved someone like William. 😊😊🥺🥺
such a beautiful story of courage and love xxx
It was a great movie when I last saw it!!!
Looking forward to seeing it again!!
😄😊
Thank You so much for loading this movie ! AWESOME
Excellent,It teaches us a lady with challenges can achieve loving motherhood and a hillbilly got wasted what more could one want,perfect
Im a hillbilly and there is no doubt in my mind that im a million times smarter than your arrogant self and my manners are far more sophisticated than your stupid uneducated self !!! These hillbillies sure can act so what makes you any better than these Americans ????
One of the very few movies that I will watch over and over.
One of my favorite movies from the 80's.. the original movie is also good..

Me too richard Thomas great actor amazing man
Me too. So handsome. Funny to watch. My brother loved acting like him.
I loved Mary Ellen she was easy and had a nickname of TARGET everyone had her
Well thank you for that - I'd been watching and thinking "I know that guy, but where from?"
Ooh John-boyyyyyy good night Jim-Bob, good night Elisabeth
Good night Daddy, good night Mama!!😄😄😄😄
This is a wonderful movie... I loved the ending; just perfect..!!
Richard Thomas is a great actor 5 stars too this movie . I loved this movie it made me so sad almost cried the other actors were really good thumbs up
Good movie... as good as the original I saw many years ago on a late night movie. I believe that one was in black & white!!
Thanks for uploading. I watched this years ago as a child and have been wanting to rewatch it for a long time.
Yes it was good, but like the others i liked the original too with Jane Wyman and Lew Ayes excellent 🎥 with those two, back in the day.
This is the second film I have watched with 'John-Boy' (The Waltons), first as a stalker, and now as a saviour.....:)
Good film, and enjoyed it.
He's an underated actor. Had a lot of good roles.
@@vintagebrew1057
Yep I know, and easy to recognise his face even if he does sport a moustache in one film....:)
Thank you sooooo much for sharing !!! Haven't seen this in years . After I remembered the name finally , I had forgotten what it was about until now . Great movie !!
I didn't realize Rosanna was such a good actress.
She really is. Watch the Executioners Song. She is fantastic. Also another great film. It's based on a true story. This film was exceptional.

Is it just me or does that house look like the Walton's house ?
PTAblues....Thank you for the wonderful commentary....I really appreciate knowing if it is a movie I would want to watch....Again...THANK YOU
A great story with a great ending. Ive always loved Richard (John Boy) and Rosanna. Couldnt have picked a better pair to play the main characters. Rosanna was so cute .
This is a remake of an old black and white version from 1948. This one is very good. The older version, which is fairly different, is good too.
I don't think that the government of my friends to play it for
Which is the older one? I didn't know there were another.
@@rageofnation4883 ...the one from 1948!
Such a great story so touching nice ending
What a great film! I cried at the end.
Very Nice Ending
good for you. Belinda you had to protect your baby and your self. . thank you for posting this. excellent. movie. you. tube......this is one of the best movies I've ever seen in my life

Yay. The intro music, the scenery.....knew it would be great to watch.
Did anyone notice a very young Dennis Quaid! Red cap playing darts! Geez, aging is cruel!
Um yeah. He's the bad guy.😞
