4 stars, I personally watched this movie a long time ago. Now when I watch it, I find it is also very pleasant. The surprise comes from two aspects. The first is that the little girl’s performance is very exciting. Often children cannot control the performance. It leads to embarrassment, but even if the little actor is a little exaggerated in his lines, but the fear of illness is buffered to the acceptance. Then there is the emotional expression of the lens. This lens is very restrained. This restraint makes people observe the movie very calmly and objectively. It is moving. The emotional appeal of this movie is inseparable from the use of the lens.

1 star. Helen Keller’s inspirational story should have been learned when we were in elementary school. Whether the time has passed, I have forgotten the details or never learned the details from the elementary school textbooks. I can't pursue it now. In short, in this noisy and self-moving movie, I can't drink this bowl of chicken soup, I just don't think everyone needs it. The performance of the hostess (teacher) is still eye-catching.

I think that table scene is still very bright, the two people completed the most important communication completely through movements.

2 points, the education that nature gives to mankind is to be able to recognize what is beautiful after experiencing cruelty. Teacher Annie is the incarnation of Mother Nature, cruel and tender. Her powerful performance even made Helen Keller a profile. In a sense, she was the creator of that miracle.

3 points. I like this perspective very much. Whether it’s narration of events or emotional communication, it is a plus. In contrast, if the subjective perspective brought to me by the three days of light is not easy to touch me

But (in the movie) I can't get this kind of performance, it feels a little bit exaggerated.

The staged performance feels like there are more or less old movies? There are more or less deliberate parts in the lines of eye movements.

You can talk about the pathological views in this film. I think its better part is that it actually presents the unpleasant side of a sick person torturing others, instead of the traditional sensational and miserable side. .

Yes, Mr. Anne is more like the protagonist, as if she didn't want to make people empathize with Helen Keller, (the English name of the movie) the miracle maker may refer to Mr. Anne.

I also prefer the literal translation of "The Miracle Creator" than the translation of "Helen Keller". I can't accept (this movie) mainly because I feel that Helen Keller is indeed like a "pet" in mainstream society. A healthy person does not have a very effective way to communicate with Helen, nor can he understand her. But through "discipline" to let her integrate into the mainstream society.

This is actually a puberty logic. Thinking of "Growing Edge", the heroine is a problem girl who has no problem at all (just hates socializing), and finally becomes a polite lady at the party.

So I may think that in the case of Helen Keller, it is the psychological barrier that may be more difficult to break than the deaf, mute and blind.

Do you think the "communication" between the two of them has really been achieved? If so, on what basis?
Souvenir guests A ant wrap
Yes, through water, at least she has a kind of cognitive joy. Through touch, shape, and texture, she visually recognizes something she can’t see, learns to perceive the surrounding environment and build relationships, not necessarily To socialize with people, it is important to find your own coordinates in the physical environment. As Yohji Yamamoto said: People need to hit something, and those who bounce back form themselves.

However, there is no real psychological communication in Helen Keller, and it is also impossible to achieve in the story of this film. She may have just learned a few words, and she really wants to establish a sense of effective communication is also unilateral. It belongs to the unilateral self-movement of a healthy person. But all the purpose in this film is to complete "socialization" for her. At the very least, it is to socialize with her family. Although I also think Helen Keller is a miracle, she can finally speak and write books with the help of the teacher.

It is possible to guide people to become "useful" is a foundation stone.

The family definitely wants their daughter to get close to what they understand as "normal".
Special guest fan2030
Yes, but I think everyone has the right to choose themselves and how to live their lives, but all of this is invalid for Helen Keller, and I can't comment on it.
Souvenir guests A ant wrap
If she is not allowed to be "useful", she may always be a rampaging beast and a "failure" in social relations. The expectation of her family may be to make her at least have the ability to take care of herself.
Special guest fan2030
This point may also be combined with my own experience. I have always lived too much of myself, and I never want to live in the expectations of others. I can't apply my thoughts to this case.

However, in my memory, the teacher's "If You Give Me Three Days of Light" is only a part of the chapter. I remember that the original book spans a lot, and it was the kind of extracurricular recommended must-read back then.
Special guest fan2030
Yes, wow, as an inspirational role model.
Moderator midnight no one
Do any of you remember the original? I want to recall her later experience.

Sometimes I wonder why the cats and dogs in the family should be sterilized. There are many good reasons for cats and dogs. For example, sterilization can reduce the chance of getting sick and can live longer. But for people, if you want to raise him for a long time, to prevent him from running away to find a concubine, or howling in the middle of the night will affect his sleep, that is to be sterilized. If people are given the choice, if they don't have sex or experience sex for a lifetime, would people choose? Maybe this example is not appropriate, but this is my first association.
Moderator midnight no one
Sterilization is needed for human support. If it is not a pet, who will sterilize it and who can sterilize it.
Special guest fan2030
So, "socialization" is only the need of a healthy person, and she must live according to the rules of the game for most people.
Moderator midnight no one
It can only be said that this is the safest way to go.
Special guest fan2030
Yes, if you go back to the movie itself, I think it might be through a relatively small cut, how Helen Keller got on the right track, a cut-in biography, the real protagonist of this movie is the teacher. In fact, the overall perception is not much different from the Austrian biopics decades later, quite satisfactory. In addition, some of my thinking has a poor perception of this story, which makes me not satisfied with this movie.
