After exposing the racism many Black domestic workers faced daily in Jackson, Mississippi, what happened to Aibileen and Minny in the end of The Help?
When it comes to bittersweet movie endings, The Help stands out - especially after seeing a young Mae bang against the window crying as Aibileen leaves. Released in 2011 , The Help sees aspiring writer Skeeter , a white woman living in Jackson, Mississippi, work with two Black domestic workers, Aibileen and Minny , to expose the racism Black housekeepers experience from white families. Some of the families Skeeter, Minny, and Aibileen work together to write about are Skeeter's own friends.
Why Skeeter Is Nervous To Leave Jackson For New York City At the start of the movie, Skeeter is disappointed to be back in Jackson after graduating from college. She dreams of being a professional writer at a big publication and does not want to follow the typical path of marrying and having kids. After the success of The Help, Skeeter receives a job offer in New York, meeting her original goal. Even though this job offer means Skeeter achieved her dream, she is hesitant to accept it.
However, the movie's ending differs because it is more ambiguous. Minny leaves her abusive husband in the movie because she knows she will always have a job with Celia. In the book, she knows she can take care of herself with the payments she receives from working on The Help. Aibileen's ending in the book is also different. Even though she is still fired by Elizabeth, at the end of the book, she already has a new job writing for the Jackson Journal, answering Miss Myrna letters.
