Racially Charged Movie Being Filmed in Small Southern US Town
The book The Help examines the relationship between African American household servants and the white families they served in the early 1960s. A movie version of the novel is being filmed in the small southern town of Greenwood, Mississippi, with Emma Stone, Cicely Tyson and Sissy Spacek in starring roles. When a movie comes to town, it brings with it an economic boom and celebrity sightings you would expect from Hollywood movie making. But the movie-making also brings up some old history during America’s civil rights struggles. VOA's Carolyn Presutti takes us to the movie set.
