Celia reminds me a little of Theo von or Elvis. When you’re born into abject poverty, what does race matter? Poverty is poverty, regardless of race you’re still at the bottom of society. Hunger is colorblind

[@stevncod]

In the book it explains that Celia came from a town called sugar ditch which was the poorest of the poor. She was considered even “lower” than Minnie. So when she married Johnny who had a lot of money she still had that humble nature about her where she didn’t think she was better than anyone and therefore looked at Minnie more like an equal. But overall she was incredibly lonely and all she wanted was a big a family. I find it ironic that the one woman in this story who would’ve made the best mom, couldn’t have children. P.S. that chicken that Celia is eating is a deep fried vegan tortilla wrapped around a popsicle stick. The actress is vegan and couldn’t eat real chicken.

We, the support actors are the majority but our stories remain untold. Maybe that is why social media reveals the full spectrum of us because like Donkey in Shrek we are at the back jumping up and down saying "pick me!".

[@m.d.1836]

Celia is a sheltered country girl with a kind heart, she sees Minnie as someone who is helping her when she needs it. She sees her as a friend. In a place where Minnie is used to casual cruelty and the brutality of the world, that kindness drew her in, not only because it was so rare especially between races, but because she knew that kindness made her vulnerable when Celia was swimming with sharks.

[@AdamStanheightsWife]

Sheltered? In the book, it's explained that she was very, very poor before. Like she was considered the lowest of the low. Idk if I'd call that sheltered

[@kiwisocks]

Even without the context of the book and just what's in this clip, I would think with the context of a woman in the period and place knowing how to and being perfectly prepared to butcher how own chicken means she wasn't sheltered. Less obvious is her cooking repertoire if only because the first is very regional - corn pone (Both an actual recipe and a slang meaning 'hick' because of the recipe's association with those who often make it) and making potatoes aka 'the starvation food' edible.

[@kspade1788]

​@@AdamStanheightsWifeyou can be poor and still be sheltered. Just because you're poor doesn't mean you've experienced every hardship in the world. My family grew up in poverty, but my sister being the younger one is sheltered and less "street smart" than I was because we're here to protect her not give her more hardships.

[@AdamStanheightsWife]

@kspade1788 it's impossible to experience EVERY hardship in the world. And being sheltered means that you don't see what the world is truly like. Basically, you don't have the chance to see that the world is hard and sucks. Now, you can be poor and be sheltered, that's a possibility. But Celia wasn't. Being poor in its own right is a hardship. A very, very hard hardship. Celia was poor and treated poorly because of it, she was considered white trash. She's not sheltered at all, because she understood the hardship of being poor and being treated like dogshit because of it. That, right there, is seeing how the world really is. How hard and sucky it truly is because of humanity, and Celia saw that. She wasn't at all sheltered.

“The Help” is such a great movie and book, of course there are differences between the two but that’s how most movie turned books go, however both the book and the movie are actually pretty good and I recommend watching and reading it😌

[@lisab9541]

Yes, both are wonderful!

[@darklake2806]

I just adore these two. The rest of it makes me cry. ❤

[@kerrykincaid8394]

I loved her character. She was so nice to minny.

[@bluevelvet5674]

Celia looks like an innocent child...and she is as pure as a child

[@sabre5807]

she reminds me of luanne from King of the hill.

[@bonnieelliott2202]

These two ladies were incredible in this movie...Actually they are great in all their movies!

While your frying pan of Crisco™️ , lard or oil is heating on medium high heat for frying. You put flour, spices, salt, pepper , along with chicken in a brown paper bag . Then vigorously shaking bag to coat chicken , just before placing in HOT popping grease. At least that’s how I was taught to make it, as a girl of ten in the 1950’s

[@Mae-vy4pr]

❤❤❤ thanks ill try it

[@lineaalba4035]

@@Mae-vy4pr Addendum, after shaking bag, lay bag on flat surface, rip open bag, check to make certain chicken is thoroughly coated. Turn heat to high, wait four, five minutes . Add no more than two pieces of chicken at a time. The reason for this , if too much chicken is add at a once , or the oil is not hot enough, the oil will be too cool. and make for soft gummy like coating. The oil must be hot enough to sear the outer coating for crispy chicken . Don’t forget to jump back from the stovetop when placing the chicken in the pan. Make sure you have oven mitts , and frying pan lid close at 🤚 hand. Good luck

[@christophercathcart881]

@@lineaalba4035do you ever turn the heat down so you dont burn it? Or do you put it in the oven once its golden brown to finish cooking it?

[@lineaalba4035]

@@christophercathcart881 well, I must admit, the heat on the stovetop is continuously monitored. Keeping the heat or flame between medium high to high, as needed. Mostly it was completed on stovetop. Because between baking the biscuits, cornbread, macaroni and cheese, or peach cobbler, nobody wanted to wait for the chicken to be completed by baking in the oven. But one of my aunt , would do just that, start the frying on the top. And one by one as she pull each piece from the pan . She’d lay it on an aluminum foil wrapped sheet pan and place then in the oven. But then, she had a fan she used in the kitchen. Remember this was another time and place, usually you were up before dawn to start your daily chores, like cooking. Before the heat of the day began to sap your energy. There was no central air, no air conditioners in ‘our’ part of town. At most a fan, like my aunt owned, was moved from room to room as needed. That’s if you were ‘rich’ and could afford your home to be wired for electricity. People did say , aunt Lucille did ‘marry up’, that fan proved it.

The same here as a girl of the seventies!!

[@Luffington]

Octavia Spencer is such an incredible actress.

[@oggie1967]

Minnie don’t burn no chicken! Bloody priceless!👍😂❤

[@booknerd9691]

Minny is amazing. Despite everything she's been through she treats Mrs cielie with respect

[@lorireed8046]

Plus she was dealing with her own demons. Her own husband was abusive.

[@booknerd9691]

@@lorireed8046 yep! Although the poo pie was the best

[@rangerwill]

She didn't have much of a choice. That was still the 1950s Southern United States. Celia may have been white trash but she was still white and could've had Minny killed for the slightest infraction

[@1stfire_shadow]

Minnie: Mister Johnny gon catch me, and shoot me dead, right here on this no wax floor! Miss Celi: NOM NOM NOM 😂😂😂

[@alessandraleigh9919]

The scene where Mr.Johnny discovers Minnie is the scene that makes you realize exactly why he left Hilly for Celia. Hes everything Hilly isn’t, and everything Celia is. She met a kindred spirit in him. Their relationship with eachother and Minnie was years ahead of time.

[@cresselia1]

Both the husband and wife was so sweet!!!!

[@anacastellanos1251]

Mr Johny fell in love with Minnys cooking and that she helped Miss Celia not feel lonely. I need this two in my life. Mr Johny is one lucky man with these two ladies.

[@Dailylifewithchf]

Minny don't burn chicken 😂... That was the last draw for her 🤣

[@breathoffreshair7795]

I felt for minnies fear, it worried me too watching the film like “what kind of man is her husband” - im so glad they broke the norm and actually put her with a good man

[@sherylmonroe7998]

Minnie don't burn chicken made me laugh as well as no wax floor. But, I love their relationship. She needed a friend so bad and Minnie became an answer to her need.

[@shawnjackson6242]

❤️these 2 ladies are the friends that they each didn’t know that they needed ❤️❤️

[@KBeth35]

One of the best movies of all time. My grandma told me her experiences from back then. Apparently Ms. Celia wasnt the only ones who ate with their "help" and had friendships with them. My great grandma was best friends with her helper. The lady was a part of our life until her death. Ms. Martha sat with my mema in my great grandmas place. She was a second mother to her... Almost a first honestly. Rip mema and Ms Martha.

[@heatherschumacher9637]

"Minnie don't burn chicken." Truer words have never been spoken

[@roselineyale_]

This film ! Viola & Octavia Spencer , just wow !

[@sunflowerh0ney117]

“Minnie don’t burn chicken” except for when she hears really good news✨

[@picadillo349]

Love this movie specially the part with Sissy spacik yells to Minnie while laughing "run for your life".

[@a.g.demada5263]

I like the fact she didn't even blame Minny for that 😂

[@Elizabeth_channel15]

Anyone wondering, this is the help. Both a book and a movie and both are really good.

[@LiamIrelan]

That moment when a short makes you watch the whole movie

[@jeannikolich9128]

One of the best lines… “Minny don’t burn chicken.” Cracks me up every time! ❤

[@SwayzeOnYa12]

The joy when she was shaking that paper bag 😂😂😂😂 I can just feel the joy of learning something you've ALWAYS wanted to be able to do!!!

[@naruto456431]

😂😂😂😂😂 "minny dont burn chicken!" Lol best line ever!

[@dajw7540]

“Minnie don’t burn chicken”. That was said with confidence, pride and stone cold truth! I LOVED Minnie!

[@ted9592]

If I recall, the actress that played Celia also stood her ground to support the black actresses in this movie. So the character was cool on and off screen.

[@daniellemaines4874]

Chastain is a wonderful actress and human. She should be in all the things.

[@Be.me1]

I loved their friendship & respect for eachother.

[@Wvrthy]

They’re both so beautiful in this film. It really speaks to the beauty and purpose of movies. To cement a moment, a feeling, an era in time- even for the wonderful actresses

[@ReaderGirl_18]

And it’s so sweet when the husband (Johnny) does find out, because he’s so nice and thanks Minnie for helping Celia 😊

[@RebeccaBerry-qv6kg]

I love the friendships in this movie, some parts i didn't like, but they also had some good parts!! GOD Bless Everyone!!!!

[@almythical1096]

I enjoy seeing these moments of the movie randomly popping up in my recommendations. Oddly very comforting and pleasing to see examples of what were likely wonderfully renewing relationships in a time where fellow human beings were so disconnected.

[@Sate12]

In the book, a creepy guy with no pants was harassing Minny, Celia put her life on the line to save her. (I don't recall if she used an axe or a frying pan) Minnie reflected it was the first time a white woman stood up for her

[@thomasstevens775]

Honestly good people do exist thank god
