Wow thanks guys but I’m taken. <3
Sorry!
when someone taller than you hugs you and you kind of put your head on their chest and it feels really protective and warm like godamn if thats not the greatest shit in the world
alternatively, being the taller person and resting your chin on their head is so comforting because you feel like their protector and it’s like they need you and you feel wanted for a moment if brief and i just think thats equally as nice
“I’m sorry. This is the first time I’ve hired a maid.”
what i loved about Celia Foote is that she didn’t treat Minnie like a maid, she treated her like a friend.
that’s because she didn’t want a maid.
It’s so sad because it’s true, she wasn’t looking to hire a maid, she was literally looking to hire a friend.
Celia’s from a very small place called Sugar Ditch which is a real place in Tunica, Mississippi called Sugar Ditch Alley, a very poor place. She came from humble beginnings, that’s why she’s so sweet with Minny. She’s the born-poor girl who lands herself the richest, cutest guy in town and gets shunned out of pure jealousy. At first you think Celia is like the blond stereotype, you know, silly and dumb… But she’s so, so fierce. She miscarried four times and she had to stay strong all the time because she’s so afraid to lose her husband. And she did it all without help. And it’s so sad because while she wants to be a (good) mother, people like Hilly and her friends treat their children like crap. This is one reason why Minny becomes so protective of her. Because she knows that Celia is different. And Celia, this “silly woman”, gave strength to Minny leave her abusive husband. No wonder why Mr. Johnny loves Celia so much and chose her instead of Hilly. She’s definitely my favourite character in this film.
