About This Movie

The Miracle Worker is a 1962 drama and history film directed by Arthur Penn. Its leading cast includes Anne Bancroft, Patty Duke and Victor Jory. It runs for 1 hour 46 minutes.

Synopsis

The true story of the frightening, lonely world of silence and darkness of 7-year-old Helen Keller who, since infancy, has never seen the sky, heard her mother's voice or expressed her innermost feelings. Then Annie Sullivan, a 20-year-old teacher from Boston, arrives. Having just recently regained her own sight, the no-nonsense Annie reaches out to Helen through the power of touch, the only tool they have in common, and leads her bold pupil on a miraculous journey from fear and isolation to happiness and light.
