      The other thing was that Celia came from the WRONG side of the tracks. She didn't come from a Wealthy family. Even back in the sixties during the Jim Crow era... Poor white families and black families lived in those small areas. They helped each other out, and worked together...
      She saw Minnie as a (person) not just a maid. You can hear it when she says" I'm awful grateful.😢"

    Celia reminds me so much of my Grandma. She was beautiful, kind, and always looked out for others - even if they were total strangers. The only difference is that my Grandma was a little smarter 😅
    Back when my grandparents were living in Alabama they were forced to get a black maid (this was during the bus boycotts) and Grandma was dead set on becoming bestie with Carrie, the maid. “
    Carrie: Oh no Mrs. Mahoney I can’t sit at the dinner table with you and the kids.
    Nana Mahoney: Well why not? The Bible says… (my family is hardcore Catholic, which didn’t get them a lot of love from the locals on top of their anti-racist beliefs.)

    Not to play devil’s advocate but if miss. Celia got along with the other women in town that was apart of the club I’m not sure if she would’ve treated minny with the respect she did. Granted it’s still a great movie with a wonderful plot, but if you really think about it she was an outcast in town, the only person that really was around her was minny and she was paid to do so because of her need for a job

    Hope Johnny does not hurt either of them.

    In the book it explains that Celia came from a town called sugar ditch which was the poorest of the poor. She was considered even “lower” than Minnie. So when she married Johnny who had a lot of money she still had that humble nature about her where she didn’t think she was better than anyone and therefore looked at Minnie more like an equal. But overall she was incredibly lonely and all she wanted was a big a family.
    I find it ironic that the one woman in this story who would’ve made the best mom, couldn’t have children.
    P.S. that chicken that Celia is eating is a deep fried vegan tortilla wrapped around a popsicle stick. The actress is vegan and couldn’t eat real chicken.

    Miss Celia's character is how I think Marilyn Monroe was in real life. Not the looks or blonde hair, but how she treats people. Marilyn insisted the great Ella Fitzgerald be allowed to perform in "White" establishments, and she and Ella became best friends. Marilyn was so underrated as a person.😢

    Celia is a sheltered country girl with a kind heart, she sees Minnie as someone who is helping her when she needs it. She sees her as a friend. In a place where Minnie is used to casual cruelty and the brutality of the world, that kindness drew her in, not only because it was so rare especially between races, but because she knew that kindness made her vulnerable when Celia was swimming with sharks.

      Even without the context of the book and just what's in this clip, I would think with the context of a woman in the period and place knowing how to and being perfectly prepared to butcher how own chicken means she wasn't sheltered. Less obvious is her cooking repertoire if only because the first is very regional - corn pone (Both an actual recipe and a slang meaning 'hick' because of the recipe's association with those who often make it) and making potatoes aka 'the starvation food' edible.

      @kspade1788 it's impossible to experience EVERY hardship in the world. And being sheltered means that you don't see what the world is truly like. Basically, you don't have the chance to see that the world is hard and sucks.
      Now, you can be poor and be sheltered, that's a possibility. But Celia wasn't. Being poor in its own right is a hardship. A very, very hard hardship. Celia was poor and treated poorly because of it, she was considered white trash. She's not sheltered at all, because she understood the hardship of being poor and being treated like dogshit because of it. That, right there, is seeing how the world really is. How hard and sucky it truly is because of humanity, and Celia saw that. She wasn't at all sheltered.

      I agree. And I do wish all the entertainment platforms including news media the worst culprit portrayed the full spectrum of real humanity rather than just the extreme s. The Heros are romanticised and the villains are demonised and get all the media's attention Each person is a spectrum of good and not so good. We, the support actors are the majority but our stories remain untold. Maybe that is why social media reveals the full spectrum of us because like Donkey in Shrek we are at the back jumping up and down saying "pick me!".

      I have only watched bits and pieces, and I’m happy for the relationship that these two people seem to have. However, it is high time that people of color are depicted as more than maids and gangsters or slaves and mistreated. We don’t need more movies that heighten the awareness of how we were treated. We have way way more to our background than those stereotypical roles.

Johnny didn’t care what Celia was up to with Minny or how much it cost as long as she was happy. A good hot meal on his plate didn’t hurt either! I love how he tried to talk to Minny and she freaks out but he only wants to thank her. He tells her he’s known from the beginning and they could have at least put some corn pone on the table to try and get it by him. They treat her like an old family friend and I think it’s just beautiful.
