“And maybe some of them boys wanna get caught!” I heard Viola Davis scream this line for two days right outside my window while this was filmed. I watched Viola and Meryl rehearse this scene over and over from my living room. I was in awe and couldn’t believe what I was witnessing. My fond memories of the Bronx.

These two women acted the HELL outta this scene!!

This clip should be renamed, "How to get an Oscar nomination in 7 minutes 41 seconds. --by Viola Davis"

This scene is incredible...Viola Davis shows more range and emotion in 7 minutes than most actors can in 2 hours...Best moment in the film

[elihauser]

she had ONE SCENE and she was nominated for an oscar. GENIUS

[yankeeangel]

When this scene began, Meryl Streep was already a legend. By the time the scene was over, Viola Davis was one too.

[rahulvinalnarayan]

she had only one scene in this movie and her performance was so powerful that it earned her an Oscar nomination for supporting actress! viola davis proves that an actor doesnot need 2 hours of screen time to captivate the audience. it could be done in 7 minutes with an oscar nomination under your belt. wow. viola is undoubtedly today's best actress.

[jimanderson]

To outshine the great Meryl Streep is near impossible, but Viola Davis does so in this scene. What an actress.

the two queens of acting
damn viola got me tearing over a clip even tho i haven't even seen the movie

This clip shows the striking contrast between privileged and underprivileged and desperate ... sometimes when you're desperate to get through and survive, you're prepared to deal with anything. Even if it kills you.

[Larettadude]

'it's just till June' broke my heart.

[AnhNguyen]

A rare occasion where the brilliance of Streep is exceeded.

[kennethoeth]

"You cant hold a child responsible for what God gave him to be." and I cried.

[RixMorales]

Meryl Streep is a completely different person in every performance. Each characters even have their own speech patterns and accents.

[manuginobilisbaldspot]

If Viola has snot, you know it's an all time great movie scene.

[Cassandra]

“I work right there.” I love that line. She was trying to get away from what Meryl was about to say.

[sebastians.]

Viola was in the movie for exactly two scenes, which make a total of eleven minutes. We don't even know the name of her character, she's just "Mrs. Miller". Yet, with just that, she delivered the most powerful scene of the movie. Her eyes, her mannerisms, everything just tells a crystal clear story. Like every character in this brilliantly written movie, there is a lot of mystery to her, and what we're shown just draws us in even more.

Before watching the movie I thought it was ridiculous they'd give a nomination to someone with so little screentime, but I was proved wrong. Every aspiring actor out there should take note from these 2. This is acting at it's finest.

"...if Viola Davis isn't nominated by the Academy, an injustice will have been done. She goes face to face with the pre-eminent film actress of this generation, and it is a confrontation of two equals that generates terrifying power." - Roger Ebert

[LuKasAV]

6:06 thru 6:20 💔 My heart disintegrates when she asks, "Then what do you want from me?" She's married to an abusive husband who hates their son, she's worried about other kids bullying him, a nun is willing to derail his chances of going to college, AND she's running late for work. Can a sister get a damn break?

[scottmacdonald]

“You don’t know enough about life to say a thing like that, sister.” Freaking awesome line.
