When we are first introduced to Celia, she is calling Elizabeth’s home, their is a close up moving up her body with a telephone in hand, she is wearing a tight yellow playsuit which is not like the other white woman, who wear knee length feminine dresses. She not only talks and dresses differently she also has a flamboyant car. Their is a bird’s eye view of all the bridge club girls cars that are bland and simple, but out of the corner of the frame you can see a bright red car that definitely stands out. In addition you can also hear the loud motor of the car which is different to the other ladies cars. But being different also has some consequences for poor Celia as she is left out and doesn’t have any friends. “I couldn’t get two people over even if I begged”. This is why she has such a connection to the maids as she knows how it feels to be treated poorly by the white people. Celia is an important example for a young audience as she teaches people that it’s all right to be different and to stand out.

Celia Foote has three amazing qualities in which make her an important example for a young audience. Throughout the film
