- Enter a vanished and unjust world: Jackson, Mississippi, 1962. Where black maids raise white children, but aren't trusted not to steal the silver...There's Aibileen, raising her seventeenth white child and nursing the hurt caused by her own son's tragic death; Minny, whose cooking is nearly as sassy as her tongue; and white Miss Skeeter, home from College, who wants to know why her beloved maid has disappeared. Skeeter, Aibileen and Minny. No one would believe they'd be friends; fewer still would tolerate it. But as each woman finds the courage to cross boundaries, they come to depend and rely upon one another. Each is in a search of a truth. And together they have an extraordinary story to tell...Buy The Help by Kathryn Stockett on Waterstones.com: bit.ly/mRwrBc or in your local Waterstone's bookshop (bit.ly/mRwrBc)
I believe that Racism is taught. When toddlers and little kids of all colors are together, they all play great together. It is adults that teach children racism.
yup and all races do that. and get mad like one chic who threatened me for saying thats some bs how dar eu teach your child that. thats not empowering u are teaching her to be a victim and a bigot and slandering anyone who doesnt fit that narrative. thats racism. racism can happen to anyone of any color and its never alright no matter who does it.
You believe huh? It definitely IS
thelastpatriot: I agree, it is taught/learned. I wish racism would die off. We could all learn a lot from kids: they don't see color, they see FRIENDS! Many blessings to u!
Absolutely..Children don't see colour they see a friend 😊
true!
Oh! That "courage sometimes skips a generation; thank you for bringing it back to our family" line had me bawling all over again. Wonderful movie. ❤
I love that line. I agree. It’s a fantastic film.
Her mother turned out to be a better person than I expected.

You'll never look at chocolate pie the same way! Loved the movie.
Well, that will only happen if we feel like we just did something bad to people & then they served us chocolate pies. I'm sure when we treat others fairly good, they won't give us dirts in chocolate pie layer.
This movie is spot on about how things were in MS. I was born and lived in Jackson.
If the trailer gives me goosebumps and yet this is my third time seeing it, I think I need to see the movie.
Bro watch it! There's this one scene that's hilarious, you're gonna love it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just realised how old this comment is lol
You think 🤔?!?
#WatchRepeatWatchRepeat
This movie is so funny. I would like to see a sequel to that movie about what happened next after all of. "The Help" retired to enjoy seeing their children succeed after getting their education in the local community college.
Hidden Figures :)
That was a very powerful movie and all the actors (yes, even Hilly) did a great job. I have to admit that sometimes now, my sister and I threaten each other with a "special" pie.
Hilly especially. It needs a lot of skill to play someone so good that everyone hates and despises them.
Was hard watching the movie the first time.. the insults my grandmother and parents endured.. i am grateful i didn't live thru it. Wasn't easy to be German during WW2 either. So many hardships.. not easy now but at least its better..
@Thor Swenson the natzi party killed a lot of German people dude
We are all equal
No you arent equal to me.
@@truewomanamerican7559 don't underestimate yourself darling
@Release us from the Matrix 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I understand what you mean, but if you reflect on it, you'll see that we are not equal and we are not treated equally either.
Despite our differences and diversity, all people must be respected, have the same rights and opportunities. To be different shouldn't be an excuse to hierarchize human beings as racists do.
I love the comeback. Wish I was able to come up with a comeback like that. It’s not often when that happens.
I also agree with Marieli Pereira. It’s quite unfortunate. And that’s putting it lightly.
One of the best movies ever!!! One of the best books ever written!!!
YES, YES AND YES!
There's a few people at my job I'd like to give some chocolate pies to. 🤣🤣🤣
1:49 "Courage sometimes skips and generation. Thank you for bringing it back to our family"
12 years already!!! Wow
My students loved this movie and were talking about it long afterwards.
sadly i suspect would be banned in some states now
A great novel ...thanks Catherine for this amazing creation...
I have read it twice in a week...
I saw the movie 1st. Then I read the book.
Fiction based on truth.
Gotta like it.
Tammy Ryder Hi . Does the book give more details and is it really fun? Tell me your thoughts plz.
It’s amazing you should really read it the movie is great but the book is 10 times better.
I loved this movie and the book. Excellent acting its a shame it really happened
In this scene, one of the voiceovers told the story of a mean, nasty daughter whose mother wrote into her will that the maid was to continue working with her family. Mostly, the mother knew no one would work with her daughter and it was her way of ensuring she had help. The maid found no one else would hire her. The maid was effectively "given" to the nasty daughter. The woman's hurt statement "How can someone leave a grown woman to her daughter. It ain't right." Heartbreaking.... you have to really hear through all the voices with Skeeter in Viola's home.
Wonderful wonderful story ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
One of the best movies I have seen.
Loved this movie. Great actors
Movie was great; the book was excellent!
A BEAUTIFUL SPIRITED HEARTFILLED PERFECT MOVIE !!!! YOU'LL HAVE TO EXPERIENCE!!!
Magnificent movie... simply.
It would be interesting to see the help written from the South African perspective
This was such a good movie! I loved all the actors and actresses.
THE BEST
Very good movie
This was a great movie
Excellent movie!!
I want to get this book and movie! I'm a cross between celia and skeeter for sure
I loved the movie until I read the book. The movie is sorely lacking in the most viscerally disturbing aspects of the book. It was sadly formulaic and simplistic. I think they tried to tone the film down so as to offend fewer people and make it more of a feel-good chick flick. Please read the book. It's heart-rending and beautiful but also very, very sad.
True! It is quite sad reading the comments of some people here “the movie was fun. Is the book fun, too?” Treating it like it were a comedy.
Please keep in mind that the author of the book "The Help" employs 'help' to raise her own child(ren), and care for her own house - in the 21st century!! How do I know - the author gave a reading of her book here in N.C. and during the Q&A session mentioned this tidbit! I asked if she knew the persons that she employed, and knew how they felt about her family (specifically, her children), and her response was 'noooo, do you think I should ask her??" I've never seen the movie, and damned sure haven't read the book!!
Really?!
Kindly provide a source for what you stated ma'am. I'd like to see it too.
That sounds like sarcasm tbh
Good grief. In this day and age, there are plenty of jobs besides being a nanny or maid.
@@shysensei2348 She is the source. It was her first-hand experience! Get a grip.
Name book
Moral of the story..... double check you chocolate pie ...💩💩
🤧🤧😭😭😭
What's sad but the right people didnt profit from this book/ movie
Meaning POC I’m assuming? The “right” people to profit from this specific book/movie should be the author IMO.
The right people to profit from the story of oppression and racism in general should be the victims of said oppression and racism.
Hilly takes her maid over to her friend's house??
Hmmmm mhhhmm

It also makes me feel really sad how colored women were treated like that even while they were maids.
I feel really sorry that colored women including colored maids were allowed to use their own separate bathrooms.
Ohh just a *Trailer* ok then 🙄🙄🙄 smh
They can wet nurse their children but not use their toilet.

JFC... the book is Fictional... gettagarip. People ARE entitled to their opinions on here. Surely, you're leading the charge to track down their descendants of the African's responsible for selling their own people To The World... and do tell us well u r doing in that noble pursuit so we can be assured you are not an armchair quarterback looking to be virtuous in front of strangers...
I love this movie but I find it a little disingenuous at times specifically the notion that black maids or housekeepers raised white children. I'm 57 and we had maids in our home off and on for about the 1st 10 years of my life at least until my sister got old enough to care for us or at least watch after us.
We were not remotely rich or wealthy and my mother belonged to no social clubs. She had help in her home because she had to work to make ends meet with her 5 children and husband. We were very fond of most of our maids but not all, but even of those of whom we were most fond, I can say did not raise us.
They looked after us while our parents were gone just like any other babysitter would for the few hours they were with us every day. They made sure that the rules and guidelines that my parents set in raising their children were enforced. Raising a child and rearing a child is a lot more than just being present during the day. Skeeter's mother was right to be outraged when she alleged that Constantine raised her.
If you think about it at least when it comes to my mother and her friends who all worked jobs and had help in their home they were likely in the same predicament as their maids were and that they left their children in the home with someone else so they could work for a living.
BamaFan1962 a lot of other people were raised by maids and a lot were not. Not everyone’s story is exactly the same.
My father is in his 60's and he was raised mostly by his family's black maid. Even after she left the home, he called her 'Mama' and made sure she was taken care of in her old age. His mother was upper-middle class and had very similar views to Hilly in this movie. He always said he had two mothers; one who gave him life and the other who taught him how to live. I think it depends on where you were, but I wouldn't call this movie disingenuous.
@@metroguy4879 that's HIS story and HIS opinion on the movie. Calm down
bresea702 just telling the truth, we all no of the exploitation
Your housekeeper’s may not of raised you but plenty did raise the children of the people they worked for, instilling humility, and all sorts of goodness.
Another 'White Saviour' movie. I'm happy these issues in history and present-day are being addressed, but I think us white people have had enough movies depicting *us* as the 'heroes'.
Ohh my.. aren't u virtuous... JFC... the book is Fictional... gettagarip. People ARE entitled to their opinions on here.

@@billhosko7723 I'm not trying to sound virtuous, I'm just saying that I'm sick of these types of movies that are riddled with both white guilt AND white superiority complexes. I'm just a white woman, so I don't know shit other than what I've read from the accounts of people of colour, but what I have read about their opinions on these types of movies is that while it can give some empowerment to them, it's usually just another white hero with white guilt movie.
But like you said, people are entitled to their own feelings and opinions, this is just mine.
You sound like a woketard and the movie actually portraied a black and a white women saving each other too. To people like you, nothing is good enough. Americans are so touched in the head.
#whitefeministfantasy
that is a lie
what that black people used to be treated like aliens instead of people by the white people, please it ain't no lie, its HISTORY
This IS FACT..... Sincerely, a so called "White" woman from Ireland -literally as white, no colour, see through as it gets!! (Ffs people wise da fu©K up!.... : some people have very little melanin in their skin ie: (the so called caucasian/white) ; some have a little bit more, (they're referred to, generally speaking as Asian, Hispanic, middle Eastern, Native American, Mouri, native Australians & New Zealand etc) & yome people have quite a bit: (the so-called Black African; African American etc) but its simply a matter of how much melanin each person possesses, that's it!!
TBH, all these labels are highly derogatory in my opinion, since we're ALL from ONE Race at the end of the day: The HUMAN RACE!!!..
You're supposed to be the enlightened Country in the Western hemisphere, light-years ahead of everyone else, & ye all seem to be Stone Cold Convinced that we're a tiny island of spud licking, inbred, constantly inebriated to the degree at which it would Kill other people, Simpleton, sheep shaggers (that Wales, by the way!!) who live on Guinness & spuds and nothing else!!??!! But ur "enlightenment" is just looking ridiculous & hilariously ironic right now. Ye took 500 steps in the right direction with Obama (though, nobody's perfect: it IS politics) and 100,000steps backwards with Trump... I mean, ffs he makes Sarah Palin look like the ultimate politician; I'd sooner have had her, as she's most of the above, just not a flaming narcissist on top of it all like Trump. And she's honest- the orange blimp couldn't lie straight in bed!!!
And yet, ur the ones with a batshit crazy, rabid, racist, with penile ADHD & in horndog tiny Pervy fingers (who has no shame going on international TV & admitting that he'd basically love to screw his own daughter!?!) and advocates sexually assaulting other women at whim, with about two braincells (otherwise known as Melania, who was an illegal immigrant when he met her; and Ivanka) to his name!!
geLudicrous is what that is!!
You just wanted to get a response. You got a few.
Not to be mean to you, but you might want to get outside more.
Maybe.
