Item Description
Veteran maid Aibileen (Viola Davis) helps raise the white children in the small southern town of Jackson. Devastated by the death of her son, she takes pride in the 17 children she has helped raise, but she sees how as adults some of them forget what she once meant to them. When Skeeter (Emma Stone) returns home after college, she gets a job as a newspaper columnist, much to the chagrin of her stay at home mom peers. Wanting a good story, Skeeter really longs to write about Jackson's domestic help, so she meets with Aibileen in secret--after much cajoling and the promise of anonymity. When Aibileen's smart-mouthed friend Minny (breakout star Octavia Spencer) breaches her uptight employer's protocol, Hilly (Bryce Dallas Howard) gives her the boot, and she ends up in the employ of Celia (Jessica Chastain) who is the local outcast because of her dirt-poor origins. After the murder of Medgar Evers, Jackson's maids have had enough and they flock to Skeeter to tell their stories, leading to a book by Skeeter that scandalizes the town--in a good way. Funny and uplifting, this movie is a must see!
