Helen & Teacher dives into a lesser-known chapter of Helen Keller's life, set against the backdrop of Radcliffe College. It captures the tension between Keller's burgeoning independence and Sullivan's traditional views. The film's pace, often deliberate, reflects the weight of both personal and societal expectations during that era. You really feel the conflict and chemistry between the two women, and the performances are quite striking, especially how they embody their characters' struggles. The atmosphere is rich with early 20th-century nuances, making you think about the broader implications of education and sexuality. It's not just about Keller's achievements; it's about what it means to break free from constraints. A thought-provoking piece for anyone interested in historical dramas.
