The only thing I actively didn't care for about this film (I LOVED it otherwise) were the blatant, flagrant stereotypes. The white little girl, the creole sewing woman with her little hardworking daughter and her hardworking husband struggling to get by and get ahead, the neighborhood, the little old creole witch woman, all of it... very, very sterotypically portrayed, at least in large part. I was delighted by the ending, though :)

As it was a period setting, I think the stereotypes were less stereotypes and more period archetypes. You're right, the ending was delightful.

i agree
