Wondering how to spend the weekend? How about watching a really nice movie, The Help,
a 2011 comedy drama based on a novel by
Kathryn Stockett of the same name. My daughter had recommended that we watch this movie and I enjoyed it! The movie is about a young lady journalist who aspires to become an author,
and her friendship with two black maids during the Civil Rights period in
America during the early 1960’s. The journalist wants their cooperation in
order to write a book from the point of view of the maids, that talks about and
exposes the racism, difficulties and traumatic situations faced by the maids at
the homes of white families. Steeker the journalist, was raised by a black maid whom she had grown to love and became an integral part of her upbringing and her life. The movie is set in Jackson, Mississippi.
The movie is directed by Tate Taylor, starring, Emma Stone, Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer, Bryce Dallas Howard, Jessica Chastain, Sissy Spacek, Mike Vogel, Mary Steenburgen and Allison Janney. The movie with a budget of $ 25 million, became a huge box office success with a gross of $ 196.6 million!
