The Help (2011)
Aibileen Clark (Viola Davis) is a middle-aged African-American maid who has spent her life raising white children and has recently lost her only son; Minny Jackson (Octavia Spencer) is an African-American maid who has often offended her employers despite her family's struggles with money and her desperate need for jobs; and Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan (Emma Stone) is a young white woman who has recently moved back home after graduating college to find out her childhood maid has mysteriously disappeared. These three stories intertwine to explain how life in Jackson, Mississippi revolves around "the help"; yet they are always kept at a certain distance because of racial lines.

Bem, vou falar em português por preguiça. Um dos filmes mais bonitos que já assisti. Se o mundo todo assistisse esse filme, com certeza não haveria preconceito racial. Acredito que da mesma forma que o preconceito racial foi acabando aos poucos, o preconceito sexual, religioso acabará. Vivemos em um mundo taxado, mas conforme o tempo for passando, isso irá diminuindo. O preconceito sempre existirá, mas sempre em menor escala. Se os negros venceram parte dessa barreira, por quê os homossexuais, os religiosos e outras diferentes etnias não venceriam? Assistam, recomendo demais. :') Emma Stone sempre fazendo ótimos papéis!
10/10 From me, I didn't enjoyed a good movie in a while, Emma is amazing.

Not perfect, & it does descend at moments into white people feeling sorry for themselves, but Davis, Spencer & Tyson inhabit their roles with grace, strength & truth. Certainly worth seeing.

A fantastic movie told through the women's eye
A decent movie, but the racial theme is a bit glossy and hamfisted. There is nothing new here, sadly. Saved by good performances from Stone and Davis.
