'The Help' repeats at #1 at the box office!!

I think more people are reading the book and wanting to see it for themselves. There has been a lot of commentary about this movie. I am finishing the book before seeing the movie. I understand the comments, but so far the book does not seem to glorify 'the help' as I have heard and read. I can't wait to see the movie with some of my friends.

"The Help" got the job done yet again at the box office over the Labor Day weekend, claiming the No. 1 spot for the third consecutive week.

Almost four weeks ago, the adaptation of Kathryn Stockett's novel opened behind "Rise of the Planet of the Apes." But thanks to phenomenal word of mouth, the movie has been No. 1 every weekend since then.

Over the four-day holiday weekend, the film sold $19 million domestically, according to an estimate from distributor Walt Disney Studios. The movie's ticket sales stayed virtually the same compared to last weekend -- an unlikely feat for a film that has been in theaters as long as it has. The picture, which stars an ensemble cast featuring Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer and Emma Stone, has accumulated $123.4 million after 27 days in release.
