Watch The Secret Life Of Bees Online Free

Gina Prince-Bythewood’s adaptation of Sue Monk Kidd’s novel The Secret Life of Bees stars Dakota Fanning as Lily, a 14-year-old growing up in a small Southern town in 1964. She is haunted by memories of shooting her mother when she was a young girl. Lily lives with her emotionally distant father, and her best friend is their African-American housekeeper Rosaleen (Jennifer Hudson). After locals beat Rosaleen for attempting to register as a voter, and Lily’s dad goes one step too far during an argument with his daughter, Lily and Rosaleen set out to find the place where the only picture Lily has of her mother was taken. That place turns out to be the home of the independent Boatwright sisters, a trio — Queen Latifah, Sophie Okonedo, and Alicia Keys — who make a very successful living producing honey. Lily and her friend move in with them, and soon the girl learns about both beekeeping and life.
