Celias husband finds out about Minnie a LOT sooner in the book. And he sincerely could not have cared less that Minnie was there. He just wanted Celia to be happy with him. Celia literally had her keeping up the ruse even when he knew, and she knew he knew.

While Minnie did leave Leroy, it left out why: Hillys husband got him fired over the book, and he locked her in the bathroom and threatened to burn the house down with her in it. She escaped, took the kids and made a run for the nearest gas station. She went to the country to live with her sister.

I was really hoping Minnie and the kids would move in with Celia. It's possibly foreshadowed earlier in the film - Minnie points out that Celia has a lot of space in the house to fill - and if Celia can't have kids, then perhaps taking in Minnie's family is a good solution. But I guess that's an unrealistic situation in the south in the 1960s, even for such a progressive couple as Celia and Johnny.

Well if we look at how the other Maids interact with the their women. None of them touch them or hug them. And when Minnie teaches Sugar the rules of being a maid, she tells them that when they prepare the Tea she HAS to place it in front of the family member, their hands. CANNOT touch. Have a separate utensil and plates for everything. So when Celia hugged her she didn’t know what to do out of fear and confusion.

For the second half of the book, Minnie is pregnant. This is relevant because they mention that her husband never hits her when she's pregnant. Also: towards the end, she has Sugar start working for Celia so she can take over when Minnie has to go on maternity leave.

Celia isn't nice because she's ignorant. It's showing how different things are outside of Jackson and that Jackson is behind the times. Celia grew up in a different city so wasn't influenced by the girls in Jackson.

Emma can do no WRONG
In the book Rachel, the daughter or the maid Skeeter grewup with, had a different story. She was white passing (a past relative,I don't remove who,was white) so her mother had to give her away because it would have been to difficult to explain or she could have been in teouble for having a "white" chikd with her and also to five her a better life. They had reunited and when Rachel showed up she acted friendly to the club members and wanted to join. Skeeter also didn't know she had a daughter so she was shocked when she found out. Skeeter was devastated that the woman that was another mother figure to her was fired and later got sicker (since she had moved to go live with Racgel but she couldn't stend the change in climate) and died and she didn't know that,no one told her and she didn't know where she was even buried.
20:00. In case anyone is curious, $600 in 1963 (when this movie takes place) would be about $6,100 in 2024, which means the 13 maids who got about $46 each then would be about $470 each in 2024.
Skeeters real name is Eugenia. The nickname stuck when she was born, and she was considered an ugly baby, and her brother said, "That's no baby, its a skeeter!"

I only found out through the comments Minnie's ending was a bit different (or at least there was more to it than the movie showed). I've never read the book but I adore the movie. I always felt the movie implied Minnie and her kids were taken in by Celia and her husband (since earlier in the movie Celia mentioned something about the big dining table and bedrooms she'd never fill and at the end Minnie comes to a set table that Celia had prepared for her). It gave me that lovely warm idea of Minnie still working there but her kids living there too in order to fill those bedrooms and give Celia the joy of having kids around despite not being able to have any of her own. At least this was how I always imagined it hahaha.

Heres the bitter truth about the toilet prank: Hilly wound up selling them all to people who wanted to get a separate bathroom for their help, for a lower price. So basically the prank not only backfired, it had the exact opposite effect. Which Hilly made a point to tell Skeeter in front of everyone at the benefit.

It was awful. He was an amazing civil rights leader, and really was shot in front of his children by a horrible racist psycho 😢😢😢
Almost all the main actresses in this movie have won an Oscar. Thats insane! 😳
Things you may not notice 1. Hilly have babies and make pressure for everyone else to do the same, which leads to Elizabeth, just a girl and not ready for motherhood, a mother with baby blues. 2. Hilly's bathroom initiative put unnecessary economic strains to a lot of white families, and it's represented by Elizabeth's arguments with her husband. It doesn't affect her because she's wealthy. But middle class family like Elizabeth is much more affected. 3. Hilly is a GOOD friend (protect Skeeter from Jolene's back-handed comments, side with her against her mother's degrading words, believing in her and hit her up with Stuart), but a BAD person and I'm glad Skeeter didn't dismiss Hilly's bs just because she's been kind to her.
Skeeter and Stuart got waaaaaaaay more serious in the book. She told him about the book the day before it hit the shelves, and Stuart was even planning on proposing! She goes to the benefit by herself, and shes treated like a complete pariah.

This movie forever ruined my enjoyment of chocolate pie.....!😂 In case you're wondering why Celia Foote kept losing her babies, it's actually a pretty easy to fix problem. Her cervix is too thin, so when the fetus reaches a certain weight, it just falls out. But all the doctor has to do is sew it up once pregnancy is confirmed, and remove the stitches at 36 weeks. I'm a nurse, so wanting to cure even fictional characters is an occupational hazard.

This was one of the most perfect book to movie adaptations I've ever seen. It was so well done.
Big thing with Abileen and Mae Mobley that was left out: Abileen would play games with her to teach her life lessons. Example: pretend to sit at a counter, and no matter what, you can't move. This was sometimes played with her brother, so he'd sit and shed throw stuff at him, or vice versa. But the objective is the same: no matter what's said or done to you, you can't move. Another thing to note is that Mae Mobley was also starting school in the book, and she had a seriously racist teacher. The whole thing came to a head when her dad caught her playing the above game, and angrily demanded she tell him who taught her the game. And she said it was her teacher!

“That flag was back then” you mean 2019?? Jk, for those who don’t know, while the confederate flag is a part of it, the flag in the beginning of the movie is the old Mississippi flag. It was voted to be changed only in 2020, but the appearance of the flag isn’t supposed to just be a mention of the confederacy but to show where the movie takes place. At the time the movie was shot, it was still flying boldly on the state capital.

And the fact that Bryce Dallas Howard (Ron's daughter) plays an ugly bigot so well that I believe a lot of people forget she's an ACTRESS playing a role, this is not her in real life. But Octavia deserved the Oscar (as well as Viola). The scene where Cecilia buries the remains of her third miscarriage as a tree just rips my heart out every time!
