I saw the teaser trailer today for The Secret Life of Bees and it dawned on me: The Oscar season is getting ready to start. Based on a book of the same name, Bees brings together Queen Latifah, Dakota Fanning, Jennifer Hudson, Sophie Okonedo (four women who are no strangers to critical praise for dramatic work) in the moving tale of Lily Owens (Fanning) a 14 year-old girl who is haunted by the memory of her late mother.To escape her lonely life and troubled relationship with her father, Lily flees with Rosaleen (Hudson), her caregiver and only friend, to a South Carolina town that holds the secret to her mother's past. Taken in by the intelligent and independent Boatwright sisters, Lily finds solace in their mesmerizing world of beekeeping, honey and the Black Madonna.
