The Help

PG-13 (2011)
Thematic material

An aspiring writer gets an idea to explore the lives of the serving women in Mississippi. Set during the civil rights movement of the 1960s, it is a social commentary on the time.

5 out of 5
(Anyone can and should watch this one)

I loved this movie. I would give it a 6 out of 5, but that would be cheating.
The women were real. I laughed, I cried (yeah, that's right... I cried). I wanted to punch a lot of people right in the face. They hit on a lot of subjects that are still touchy almost 50 years later, and I am SO glad they did.
