<span>Helen and Annie are in a constant altercation up until the last 5 min of the movie. Helen only listens to Annie when she was forced forced to (when her family is not around to spoil her). During the breakfast scene the "Battle of Vicksburg" is similar to Annie not willing to give up on getting through to Helen. Captain Keller makes that reference of the battle in an effort to convince Anne that she should give up on trying to teach Helen anything and just administer defeat.
