The Help - Movie

Ray and I ventured out yesterday afternoon to see The Help movie. I thought it was fantastic. 

I loved the book, so was a little worried about whether the movie would hold up. I think it is the best screen adaptation of a book that I've ever seen (for a movie where I have read the book). I got caught up emotionally  more than I thought I would. 

I wondered if Ray would like it. He hasn't read the book. He thought it was very well done, and really liked it.


There you have it, our two cents worth: two thumbs up, four stars.

See it.

  1. I've been gone for a week and boy, have you been busy blogging! The scriptures look great. . .and I've been wondering if I wanted to see the movie.

  2. I LOVED the movie, too, and was worried about the adaptation from the previews. It was a great screenplay and the acting just made the movie, especially Viola Davis. It might just win for best adapted screenplay and other Oscars. I still think Emma Thompson's adaptation of Sense and Sensibility is my all time favorite, but this is a close second!

I'd love to hear what you think!
