@tomatoketchup43812 years ago I will always love how Cecilia was never rude to Minny. She treated her equally and with respect. 23376
@

@SLiX-thatguy11m-2 years ago Mae crying in the end was such pain. She truly believed Abilene was her mother. 20718
@

@wilfredmkereru47922 years ago Cecilia was my favorite character in this movie. She was the definition of beautiful, inside and out. The fact that she was never horrible to Minny once, she treated her as her equal and friend.
She was ahead of her time and the fact people treated her as an outcast because of one petty bitch, honesty Johnny and Minny were lucky people to have her in their lives. ... 8443

@kendallglover28302 years ago "You're not clean enough to use my bathroom but you can totally feed, change, bathe, clothe and cuddle my child." 🤔 1434
@

@flufflewarrior2 years ago Imagine raising someone like your own child, only for that person to treat you like garbage and not seeing you as an equal human being... 15223
@

@JoseGarcia-qm4eu2 years ago I still don’t understand how people in that time didn’t once think treating people like this was cruel? 15465
@

@paulagopareggers74912 years ago You forgot to say that Mae (the little kid) was screaming “mom” to the maid, that had me sobbing. 2369
@

@girl12132 years ago You'd be surprised how many of those 60s children thought the black maids were their mothers compared to their biological mothers. Mae isn't alone in thinking that. 1320
@

@priest-mc60222 years ago I broke down when mini's daughter had to quit school and became a maid also and help with the bills. Such innocence brought into this cruel world. 13511
@

@greeneyelove20032 years ago Hilly was horrible and hateful. But the character I hated most at the end was Elizabeth. She was spineless. She was so desperate to be on Hilly's good side that allowed her daughter's heart to be broken. That was the most unforgiveable act.
And I adored Hilly's mother. You have to be a horrible person for your own mother to laugh at you eating to piece of shit pie.
Telling Hilly she was a 'Godless woman' was the best insult Abilene could have dished out. ... 4972
@

@ellathefinefella20842 years ago I love how clinical it sounds. “Unfortunately, he acts like a twat” 487
@

@Apples_forlife2 years ago This is literally how my great grandmother had to live, my grandmother would tell me stories on how her mother (my great grandmother) had to leave home (PA) and go work in New york as a maid. And she would tell me everything her Mother and Father had to go through. They had to move to the North from the south because of how bad the racism was..they were scared for they're lives and didn't want they're future children to live lives full of fear. So when I saw this movie it just brought all those painful memories of those stories back. We've come a long ways, and I only hope that we continue to grow and for the world to understand us even more. ... 228
@

@senoritagriffiths54222 years ago "They" were so concern about "blacks" using their bathroom yet thought nothing about their meals. Such ignorance is quite baffling. 976
@

@productsandfame27012 years ago I will never forget this movie. I might forget the dialogue, the plot, the characters, most of the scenes but the pie part will forever be remembered. 1047
@

@glo-money2 years ago “unfortunately, stuart behaves like a twat” is probably one of the best sentences i’ve ever heard from one of these things 443
@

@triplerstudios61082 years ago The shit in her pie was hilarious. I loved how she made sure the pie was given to the spoiled girl she basically raised. Mrs. Walters was laughing her ass off. Emma Stone did a good job along with everyone who plays the maids bc all of them are amazing actresses. Skeeter was an amazing girl and you can see the social construct being disruptive when someone doesn’t want to be a housewife and be someone bigger. ... 428
@

@N1lav2 years ago I feel sad knowing the some of stories said to be published in the movie might actually be true. People are just awful. 3662
@

@uknowwho71522 years ago Im always so shocked and disgusted by the way people were treated in the past, I cried from this, I hate seeing good people treated badly but I'm sure lots of us do hate to see it 😢 1882
@

@petestreet1002 years ago Imagine having to deal with such evil, racism and the discrimination of those times whilst at work, only to finish and go home to a violent husband. 225
@

@daisyramos41262 years ago This movie made me respect Bryce Dallas Howard (referring to her acting, not the character she played). She sold her role so well it was like I could breathe her effort. 396
@

@queenmamabear58122 years ago The end is so sad, those poor woman struggled and were abused so badly just evil 957
@

@2ella._.2062 years ago To this day I still don’t understand why people of a different color were treated with so much disrespect and inequality. I just don’t get it… 1749
@

@littlemissmcha59452 years ago I grew up with a maid my whole life and I honestly, it may sound bad but loved her more than my parents
She took care of me because both my parents are working
She recently went back to her family but i will definitely visit her one day, infact she even offered to let me stay in her home at her country if i ever do visit ... 80
@

@hajde81282 years ago "the kids they raised grew up to be as mean as their parents" nature overpowering nurture basically, that speaks volumes. 455
@

@ozoz34442 years ago I know this movie is not the best in that it falls into the white savior trope but Minny and Aibeleen's characters always give me the hope and strength to be resilient in an unjust world. 3472
@

@adultpowers83272 years ago I know to a lot of people, this is the distant past, but this is basically MY GRANDMOTHER'S story.
I'm only in my 30s, and I am the FIRST generation in my family not to be born under these types of laws and treatment. When my mom and dad were born, these laws were still in place, and the Civil Rights Act hadn't even been signed.
People who thought like this shared those thoughts with their kids and grandkids. Those grandkids are cops now, doctors, teachers, business owners, etc. For some of us, those kids and grandkids are our parents.
Food for thought. ... 1908
@

@bleepvbloop2 years ago The maids were so strong to have to face all this discrimination and humiliation and keep going I really admire that 65
@

@justinejustice_league18572 years ago Cecilia reminded me so much of Marilyn Monroe..
kind hearted, beautiful and wasnt racist during a time when it was normalized but extremely self conscious, struggling with infertility and hate coming from other women ... 21
@

@ducknorris2332 years ago The marking the toilet paper thing reminds me of how they cut the donuts into fours at after church functions. Like I don’t know how to put a donut back together. 842
@

@AlexS-oj8qf2 years ago Tbh what I love about Skeeter’s and Hilly’s “friendship” is that Hilly is not your typical villain. If you notice, it seems like Hilly is taking Skeeter into her guardianship, often protecting her from her other friends, such as kicking Jolene on the table card for making unkind comments about Skeeter’s lack of marriage, and even standing up for her decision to get a job at the Jackson Journal. She defend Skeeter from her mother’s expectations (I forget which one is but it’s in line with “I wouldn’t let your mother’s opinion about you let this chance slipped by” when talking about Skeeter meeting her cousin Stuart). She’s initially not a Villain in Skeeter’s life, but as time progressed both of them changed. Skeeter got exposed to the bigger world from her education while Hilly settled into her life as a socialite with certain pressure to keep up the “standards” of her surroundings, which means embracing the “racism of the south” because that was the rule of the land, and they just didn’t fit in anymore, it’s not about good vs evil, but two person deciding which value they want to live by. It just seems real to me than the usual “my bully is happens to be a racist” trope. ... 1039
@

@chantejacob102 years ago Our ancestors had it so bad. This wasn’t even that long ago, these are our grandparents 47
@

@msnlitadventures95972 years ago It still shocks me that at one point human beings were treated like this just because of the color of their skin. It was like they were seen as objects with no value. It’s so disgusting 108
@

@clshep2 years ago I was born in the 70's and I'm also half Latino, my mother is Latino and my father is white and I grew up in Northern California. I never experienced racism that I was ever aware of. But it saddens and equally blows my mind that as little as 60 years ago that it was thought to be okay to treat people as though they're lesser than...Just because they have a different amount of melanin in their skin. ... 406

@camerondavid29242 years ago I remember crying with the scene with Mae crying 159
@

@Princemercury902 years ago My grandma told me so many stories of the yt women she was a maid for... This movie hit me hard to know how hard she had it just trying to take care of her kids.. My aunt's, uncles, and mom. 122
@

@soph27992 years ago I remember watching this movie in the theatres when it was released. I bawled like a baby. I didn’t expect it to hit so hard. Such a deeply moving and important film. Everyone should watch it. 27
@

@heavynoose77612 years ago I feel really bad for that little girl at the end. 345
@

@develtedeltukeilachi2 years ago In the book this movie was based on, I think I remember Constantine was fired because they found out she had a daughter with a white man. 146
@

@celeste.cutz20202 years ago I cried when Skeeter’s mom humiliated Constantine. It was probably the saddest part in the movie. 16
@

@gladysmorgan56532 years ago I've watched this movie many times and enjoyed it so much. Cecilia was the kind soul to balance the movie out. Abilene was so kind to Mae, even the baby knew she was being mistreated by her mom and Abilene treated her with love and kindness. ... 24
@

@toraneko15632 years ago This movie is so good, and scene where celia and her husband invite minnie to eat together is really touching and sweet for me 161
@

@mirandachristina34122 years ago What a horrifying but beautiful story to recap. The thought or reality that any life could be treated as such is completely abohorrent. Good choice for recap and I cried a lot for this mistreatment of life. 279
@

@SuperKiiiwiii2 years ago when he said she got the courage to leave her husband i got goosebumps :) im so happy for her 13
@

@douglasfreer2 years ago This is a great movie. So many these days try to say it’s a mighty whitey story or just something to please the conservatives but it’s not. It gets the point across on how these women were treated and how bad the housewives were, even if only one was malicious the others weren’t exactly defending the maids either, so it’s very heartwarming when someone does treat these ladies right like Skeeter and Cecilia. I mean Skeeter didn’t have to publish that book and pay all those women for sharing their stories but she did showing she at least didn’t believe herself as above them. ... 43
@

@lastpme2 years ago Whenever I have a bad day…watching movies like this reminds me the issues I deal with are so trivial compared to what other dealt with… 176

@totlicker2 years ago I get what this movie is achieving, but I wonder how it felt for everyone who was casted into this. 595
@

@ItsAsparageese2 years ago "Unfortunately, Stuart behaves like a twat."
That's it. That does it. I officially no longer dislike bot-voice videos. I now understand why people say it adds charm in its own way lmao 26
@

@Lampebruder2 years ago The ending always made me sad because Abilene loved that little girl. Mae’s mother was terrible to her and didn’t know how to be a mom. 18

@dlilwon2 years ago Broke my heart to pieces when that precious baby was crying for Abilene 😭😣 61

@BrianCam.2 years ago That one scene with Minny's pie will always be an awesome and memorable one.

@murtleturtle40272 years ago I've watched this movie so many times. It's not only a great story with funny, sad, and great moments, but it's so aesthetically pleasing too. 18

@liarodriguez91192 years ago You know the book is good when the summary alone makes you tear up 10
@

@crispy_pho2 years ago i love how they just say " a few days later, kennedy is assasinated" and left it at that as if it wasnt important lol 72
@

@mtimm90232 years ago The book is better. Abilene gets a job writting the miss Myrna column. Minnie leaves her husband cause he hit her when she was pregnant. But yes Cecelia and Minnie have a special relationship. 39
@

@mariadiego31492 years ago I watched this for the first time in school since then I've watched this so many times and it still makes me so emotional for the people who had to go through this type of treatment back them 6
@

@paulieluce53032 years ago I’ve heard people say recently that this subject matter is problematic since it’s making Emma Stone’s character a white savior like Scout in To Kill a Mockingbird. I see the similarities but Octavia and Viola made the characters their own and I think the movie focused on them ... 31
@

@sweetsmall142 years ago I love this movie! I can't imagine a person can't use a bathroom because of their color for real??!!! I'm sorry I thought everyone poop and pee was disgusting!! Sickening!! I also don't understand how the women need maids lol they don't do anything?!! I am so glad society has changed since then!! I am so glad my African princess can grow up to be anything she wants because of great heroic people fighting for human rights. ❤️ ... 163

@ChelsiB.2 years ago One of my favorite movies! “I said EAT. MY. SHIT!” 😂😂😂😂 Hilly deserved it 45
@

@rebeccabrown38982 years ago Loved this movie for what should be obvious reasons. most of these white women were absolutely horrible! I’m white, grew up in the 50’s in the south but was raised to respect all people. There was a black lady that worked in our home on a bi-weekly basis. Her name was Doris and I loved her so much. I felt like I could talk to her about anything. I was so proud when she was present at my wedding. ... 46

@

@candiigurl78932 years ago This was one of my favorite movies back when it was released. The writing was so good and the characters had stories that really made you care about them. 6
@

@Gabriel-gw8hf2 years ago Celia (and later her husband) is such an MVP in this movie, those moments she shared with Minny are so wholesome.
I remember Celia's character being portrayed as an innocent, yet tough woman. Her lack of "awareness" of black/white separation "Etiquette" showed in a scene where Minny was the one who told Celia that she couldn't sit with her on the table to celebrate after making fried chicken because it would be a bad look if they were seen eating together on the same table. One of my favourite scenes in this movie.
phuc i wanna watch this movie again and bawl my eyes out ... 15

@TheOMGRamen2 years ago I love how, when I clicked on this video, an ad popped up about toilet paper.
It was about how you shouldn't use it anymore and should instead install a bidet. It was definitely on theme with the title so it made me chuckle. ...

@thatsjasminerice75492 years ago Mae crying in the end was so sad and I felt so bad for her she basically lost her Mother 6
@

@slcRN19712 years ago My siblings and I grew up in the first non-segregated school in the South (in the 1960s). Our parents did not even mention anything racist (except that my dad took a long time to get over what happened while he served in WWII in the Pacific, he had awful experiences with the Japanese. He did get over it because my brother dated a Japanese girl while in college. Dad was ok with that). This film and the book are great and eye openers, for those who did not know or see this disgusting racism. ... 8
@

@emiliosemporium39772 years ago Living in the south for the past few years I hear this one thing from all my older white coworkers. “My parents didn’t have any hate towards black people”. I don’t believe all of you. There is a restaurant in my town that is a memorial to commemorate black activists who sat in the restaurant when it was whites only at the time. I imagine some of my coworkers parents were the ones sitting there feeling uneasy seeing a couple black people sit in their whites only restaurant. ... 14

@elaynakirchner63462 years ago I break down in tears every time I watch the ending. I know it’s not her mother but the child’s mother isn’t very nice. 5
@

@amriakamiran37322 years ago I watched this movie, and I love it. It showed how racism affect people but at the same time showed how people can get up and get their equality back. I even cried with scenes when Abilene got her credits with Skeeters and how they treated Abilene's past son... I believe if it has second part Mae will be the next Skeeter, probably looking for Abilene ... 46

@

@voniarichardson79452 years ago My grandmother was a nanny/maid to 2 white families. They treated her with love and respect. To the point, she stayed with the family and joined the daughters house when the daughter got married. When she passed, my dad informed her, and she said "My heart is truly broken and my girls are going to be devastated. But know this, you and your family have nothing to worry about. I will make sure everything is taking care of. Just like Mary used to make sure me or my girls always had what we needed from her as well. I really going to miss her." ... 8

@ItsAsparageese2 years ago Okay WOW. I need to see this movie. You know a story is just plain excellent and powerful at its core when a frickin' RECAP video can make someone cry, sheesh 2
@

@blairhilton28593 months ago I absolutely love Celia Foote. She’s so real, and genuinely so innocent and sweet— everything a person should be. She never cared that Minny was black, or that anyone was black, she made direct physical contact with Minny in the form of a hug, and in the film you come to find out that Minny has even helped Celia with her hair color and helped coach her through a miscarriage. Celia was a great soul who just wanted friends, and was hurt by the other women, even though she’s not black— she’s treated as if she was gum on the bottom of a shoe. Johnny is a great man too, and dodged the bullet with Hilly. Even though Celia’s not the greatest housewife but she’s a great woman. ... 1
