The movie based on the bestseller The Help is now in theatres. I read this book a few months ago and it was one of the first reviews I wrote for this blog. If you've read the review you will see that I loved the book. I thought the characters were interesting and funny. It managed to take a very serious subject and make it light hearted and fun, all while conveying an important message.
I've found three articles online, two praises the movie, the other feels it is historically inaccurate and does a poor job of recreating the time period. Here are the articles..
The Help is Faithful to the Bestseller by Leah Rozen
Movie Review: The Help by Laurie Fundukian
Bestseller Novel The Help needs Help with its Homework by Lynn Crosbie
Let me know what you think. Did you enjoy the book, or did you find its inaccuracies ruined it.
