We've seen a lot of movies from different angles on the black movement, and this one has a newer angle, but it's always been a joy, not a pain in the ass. The hardships that can be imagined have not been fully expressed. To say that it is excellent is more because the female supporting roles have portrayed several characters perfectly and vividly. After the movie, I was not infected by this thrilling movement. But I like the wonderful performances of several characters in it.
In this period, everything seems to be in peace, unlike the era when black people were slaves, everyone could see the cruelty, but hid and lived on.
In this period, freedom is not a struggle, and blood cannot be used to resist. Every black man carries a cry like a nightmare, but no sound is heard.
They take it for granted, carry it on, never imagine who they will be one day, even though those maids are teaching white kids how smart, kind, and important you are, and one day you will have everything .
Yes, they never thought about their rights, and their maids and grandmothers who were both maids didn't tell them you deserved, they were comforted by the white bible, taught to love their enemies, Keep giving yourself love, but don't know why.
Skeeter didn't break the calm, the constant humiliation suffered by black people, and it made them realize that they were not second-class citizens, not people of color, but Nothing. They're not even a pet dog, they're rats, so no one thinks about how rats feel. And feeling the mouse's heart is exactly what THE HELP book is about.
When hilly keeps humiliating her black compatriots with donations for children, for African refugees, and under the pretense of various morals, I understand that their maids are not in the category of all human beings. , they thus defend their dignity, not just their rights.
My only dissatisfaction with this film is that it never really portrays the hard work skeeter and Abilene make in the face of the silence that weighs down on them. The suggestion is like a compromise in the negotiation. In fact, the hardships Abilene suffered in the original book and the efforts she took the initiative to do for this book did not show. She is the great contributor to the birth of this book, so Only then did she receive a standing ovation in teaching, and then she bravely chose to be a dream writer.
And SKEETER is more like getting a chance to get a promotion to write a book with explosive points, rather than inheriting the HELP obtained from his female mistress
and Minny's role is so interesting, a few scenes completely let I laughed, but she was really having fun, she was so flesh and blood, she gave hilly to eat shit PIE is not a revenge, you know, when her husband beat her, she didn't hurt her He, in the original book, could choose to leave, and he didn't resist to the end, as her kind employer said, her knocking on the door to deliver shit stemmed from her hurt self-esteem, she didn't steal, she was the best cook in Mississippi maid, so she wanted the villain who framed her to know that she was not only good at cooking.
Minny is the most characterful maid here. She does what she says and does what she says. She has the spirit of an old woman who has had enough. Unlike her, Abilene is not a rude person, she is a child's soul Mentor, she is sensitive enough, her resistance is not like minny's momentary, she cares more about something else than minny's excitement about her share of money, and that's it - a bigger dream, Support her enough courage.
As for the protagonist, HELP is obviously not just talking about the help she provides. She wrote such a book not from a whim, but from the help that people of color have given her to her. In her most helpless Moments, while finishing the book, the maids did the same to help her.
In fact, these interactions in the film are not described much, and the whole is too joyful. If there is no performance by Abby Leon, all this will be even more comedy.
I was relieved to see Abby Leon finally freed from the pain and smiled at the thought of his infinite possible future.
Not to mention STONE's performance, there are no bright spots, it does not show the deep feeling it should be,
but it is still a good movie
