We Buttonwood Gals, really enjoyed the movie, as well as thought provoking dinner conversation afterwards over supper.
The movie faithfully followed the book, and the few omissions (from the book) made no difference to the movie plot.
While all the actors/actresses were very good, Cicely Tyson's as the fired life long nanny to the main character was heartbreaking. Without a word being spoken, Cicely's character looked through the closed door as she was fired. The closed door, literally and figuratively said it all. Tears ran down my face due to the range of emotion on Cicely's . While she hardly gets a mention, IMHO, she stole the movie in that one scene.
