Wacky Wednesdays with Jenbiff

Movie and Book in Review

Have you ever had a day where you had a really hard time concentrating? Well today was definitely one of those for me!

Anyways...I was FINALLY able to see the movie The Help. I refused to go see it until I had read the book. I absolutely loved the book. I had a really hard time putting it down to work, sleep or even eat! I absolutely loved the fashions in movie (sorry I can't help it!). I won't lie, I never really thought about how maids were treated before civil right and what they thought about their bosses. At the end of the book the author, Kathryn Stockett, makes it very clear that this book is not true. But it really makes you think along with seriously entertains. I did notice that part of the movie was a little confusing if you did not read the book, because the movie was so long they had to cut things out. Unfortunately I think there were some important things they did leave out. But nothing too big that you wouldn't be able to understand the movie. Clearly I love the book more than the movie, but the movie was still really good!
