Emma Stone & Viola Davis - The Help Interview

Emma Stone and Viola Davis head up a star-studded cast in The Help, based on the international best-selling novel. Set in Mississippi during the 1960s, a southern society girl returns from college determined to become a writer, but turns her friends' lives—and a small Mississippi town—upside down when she decides to interview the African American women who have spent their lives taking care of prominent southern families.

Bonnie Laufer from Tribute spoke with Emma and Viola about the mass appeal of the book, getting that Mississippi accent just right and how working on the film changed them.
