An unnoticed great movie...underrated?


Hello there

I've just finished watching the miracle worker, and I wanted to share that this movie got me (surprisingly!) crying like a big girl, specially when Hellen in finally aware.

Yeah all you cinema experts might say it's cliched or whatever, but the thing is I didn't "plan" to sit there and watch a movie to make my cry , and it really moved me.

The movie is certainly (in my eyes) a masterpiece, well executed , careful photography, adequate music and the plot is just exciting. Quite a surprise, as I just thought it would be yet another old black and white old flick.

Are there other great cinema gems like this one that I have been missing for years? And no, top 100 doesn't seem a good place to start, so I'll try asking in
this great movie forum as I don't trust imdb ratings anymore.

No matter if old or new films
