| Worth the money
This was a really good movie. I laughed, I thought, I almost cried. This one does take you through some of the mentality and history of '60s, to include the death of Megar Evers (sp?) and civil rights protests breaking out. I think the surprise character of this one is Celia Foote, played by Jessica Chastain. I've never heard of her (the actress), but, if you listen to her character talk, you'd swear you were watching the late Brittany Murphy (did the voiceover of Luanne on "King of the Hill"). Celia's not wrapped, but Minny (Octavia Spencer) handles her just fine. Be sure to check out the bonus video of Mary J. Blige's "The Living Proof." Definitely worth the money and your time.

| The Help that helped the Bored & Lazy White Folk!
This for me was just more evidence of how un-educated, ignorant, selfish, arrogant, bored and lazy white folk were and still are. How could they treat another human being so poorly and get away with it? The sad thing is, they would treat their own kin just as bad, but not do so in such a condescending way. It also shows how shallow all who acted like that and treat another human being that poorly. I l.m.a.o. when she made that woman eat her blank. I also appreciated how they loved the white peoples children more than the white people loved their own children, everything for them was just status and how things appeared to their neighbors and the town. All I got to say about that is "Who Cares"! If I was a descendant of someone who was either superficially racist or deep down racist like the racist groups back then and now, I would be so ashamed of having that person or those persons in my family.

Actually a pretty good movie. Quite a bit of heart and emotion. Emma stone is great in her role as a journalist trying to publish a book of the helps stories. I reccomend watching this movie.
