I hope both Viola and Octavia win an Oscar, and even if they don't wherever their careers go from this point on, I still wish them the best. They demonstrated, in the acting of those roles, the emotions/pain many women of that time period experienced through the abuses/disrespect they endured from their employers, moreso because of who they were, in an era where many feared the consequences they would face had they spoken out about it. I had never heard of Octavia prior to that or seen her act in any movie role, but she did well in that movie. I've seen Viola act before, so I always admired her acting skills.

I didn't get to talk to Viola. Too many were on her. I think one of them is going to win an Oscar. Viola has worked very hard to get where she is at now & deserves it more to me. But Octavia performance was more stand out. I met Viola a few years ago at the SAG Awards when she was nominated for "Doubt".....Very classy humble women. I love my experiences!!!

Yes, I remember hearing about Viola Davis being nominated for an Oscar for her role in the movie 'Doubt'. I heard her nomination was based on those 11 minutes of her performance in "Doubt". I agree, she's a very, classy and dignified woman. She has no reason to apologize to anyone for the roles she chose to play, because from what I've seen of her acting skills, she performs her parts very well. I saw her interview with Oprah last week on Oprah's cable channel.

Oprah's shows repeat on her cable channel "OWN". You probably might be able to watch it on her website. You'll have to check the net for the link. It was interesting hearing her story of her humble beginnings to where she is now. She sure didn't allow that situation to get in the way of her dreams/goals.

Yea! I've heard some of her interviews before. She is very honest.

Viola Davis looked so beautiful when I her @ the NAACP Awards last friday. Looks like she got her boobies done to I got a chance to compliment Octavia on a job well done in The Help.

Hopefully she didn't hurt her self when she fell off the stage....

I really hope to see the film after finishing the book.

What you said is was Oscar is ALL about. (or at least suppose to be all about).

it is about who shows the emotions and fleshes out the character they play the best.

What actress brings her character to life the most.

It is not about whether anybody wants to live the life of the character or would even like to meet a simular person.
