A young, white girl fresh out of college in Jackson, Mississippi decidea to write a book from the point of view of the help during the beginning of the civil rights movement. The book was amazing - I think I blogged about it awhile ago. The movie was so much better - I thought. The movie made me cry many times. I could feel the heat from the southern summer coming through the screen. Everyone did an amazing job - awards all around. All in all, I say: SEE IT - don't delay.

I strongly agree!!! There is a lot of flack out there about this movie and how it is glorifying the "mammie" figure...
