An aspiring author during the civil rights movement of the 1960s decides to write a book detailing the African-American maids' point of view on the white families for which they work, and the hardships they go through on a daily basis. (IMDB)
At first I thought I would like to read the book first, but then I wanted to watch something with my mum and she didn't really fancy the idea of watching Ruby Sparks, so I had a mission to choose something suitable for my mother. So after a long time I have first thought of watching this movie I turned it on...
...And it touched me and you have to see it to know why. In fact, this part of American history has nothing to do with me, but it was interesting to see this rendition. Emma Stone is a person, that you look at and see she has a character. It is an interesting person in this movie and every person in this movie has an acting talent and this is amazing.
Of course, there are cons, too. For example the American kind of telling stories. Something important is unsaid and some things are exaggerated. But I was surprised that in this movie I liked the happyend. Because most of the movies people watch are American and you have to get used to their kind of movies or their stupid happyendings...
