If I had even an extra minute to read a book this summer, The Help would have been first on the list. So many of my friends have read it and raved about how wonderful it was. Luckily for me, Disney’s Dreamworks Pictures has turned the best-selling book into a major motion picture opening everywhere on Wednesday, August 10th. It definitely looks like a girls night out kind of movie!
About the Movie:
Based on one of the most talked about books in years and a #1 New York Times best-selling phenomenon, “The Help” stars Emma Stone (“Easy A”) as Skeeter, Academy Award®–nominated Viola Davis (“Doubt”) as Aibileen and Octavia Spencer as Minny—three very different, extraordinary women in Mississippi during the 1960s, who build an unlikely friendship around a secret writing project that breaks societal rules and puts them all at risk. From their improbable alliance a remarkable sisterhood emerges, instilling all of them with the courage to transcend the lines that define them, and the realization that sometimes those lines are made to be crossed—even if it means bringing everyone in town face-to-face with the changing times.
Deeply moving, filled with poignancy, humor and hope, “The Help” is a timeless and universal story about the ability to create change.

I had not heard of it. I usually wait for movies to come out on DVD unless I’ve been waiting on them for awhile!
I can’t wait to see this movie! I love the book. I will probably go with my friend from work.
Won`t see it til I`ve read the book first, and I`d go to see it with my daughters
I am actually going with my friends, every few months, we have a chicks night out and we are all looking forward to seeing this!
