 CHAPTER I

CONCLUSION OF HELEN KELLER’S MOVIE

“THE MIRACLE WORKER”

The miracle that happens at the top of The Miracle Worker is that the writer learns to speak
with words. The audience, therefore, has the sense that this is often a turning purpose in her
life which, though her story is way from over, it'll be quite completely different from now on.

When a mythical being manages to spell out the word water, the Helen Adams Keller family
come back running from the house. A mythical being touches her mother's skirt, and Annie
spells out the word mother for her. Then she spells male parent for her father. The word
mythical being significantly desired, however, is teacher, which is, for her, as vital a
relationship as any loved one as much as she cares.

The final image of the play has the family retreat from the 2 figures of mythical being and
Annie, as Annie spells into Helen's hand, "I love mythical beings. Forever and ever." Each
word and action reinforce the thought that the play is regarding Annie, the miracle man
herself, and Helen. Her family and also the remainder of the planet area unit all subordinated
to her teacher.

Throughout the play, Helen's read of the planet has been completely different from anyone
else's, and this has been the supply of most of the conflict. Solely Annie has shown real
understanding of Helen's world. Now, in these 2 figures and Annie's message of affection, the
audience is given a glimpse of however the planet seems to the writer.

 CHAPTER II

PREDICTION OF HELEN KELLER’S MOVIE

“THE MIRACLE WORKER”

I predict Helen can expertise hardships throughout her journey of learning a way to
communicate in a very totally different way. It's terribly troublesome to be told new things
while not having the ability to check or hear something. I believe Helen can get pissed off
typically and have a way of despair.

It's terribly arduous to fight your disabilities. She most likely experiences loads of failure in
attempting to precise herself. The additional failure, the more durable it's to induce copy and
take a look at once more. I believe it'll be terribly arduous and difficult for Helen to be told a
replacement thanks to communicate, however I believe she will get it on.

 CHAPTER III

MORAL VALUES OF HELEN KELLER’S MOVIE

“THE MIRACLE WORKER”

There is a lot to unpack from Helen’s life story, but here are some moral values we can take
from Helen Keller:

1. Pursue the unexpected

Often, nice visionaries ostracized for their ‘out of the box’ thinking as a result of the final
public inability to envision them. From Albert Einstein to Steve Jobs, each of them were
shamed for arising with concepts actually astounding for his or her generation. however
within the finish, their concepts was beingness.

Similarly, no one believed once Helen was determined to graduate from a standard university.
Everybody thought it had been too bold for a blind and deaf lady. She rose higher than what
was “realistic” and evidenced everybody wrong for thinking otherwise.

2. You can’t avoid danger while chasing your dreams

Helen was once quoted voice communication, “Life is either a daring journey or nothing.
Security is usually a belief. It doesn't exist in nature. Avoiding danger is not any safer within
the long than outright exposure.”

She was a fearless dreamer who solely thought of going to her goal. She understood what she
had at stake and still set to grant it a go.

 3. You are all you need

We are all lost during this endless maze of wanting an explicit material or person or position
that we expect will build America happy. while not even realizing that true happiness comes
from among. Helen of Troy recognized too soon that happiness wasn't found, however rather
created. She understood that the key to true happiness has the boldness to measure life
consistent with her terms.

“What I am looking for is not out there, it is in me.”- Helen Keller
