I've seen her in The Help and Because of Winn Dixie, I think i've seen a few others but that was a while ago now so I've just ordered some of her fils in dvd format.
Can someone give me suggestions to her best films please.

Hi! First and foremost, look high and low for THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF MISS JANE PITTMAN. It's a tour de force for Ms. Tyson, who, as the title character, ages from about 20 to 110. Other notable performances include A WOMAN CALLED MOSES [a Harriet Tubman biopic], THE MARVA COLLINS STORY, BUSTIN' LOOSE [a rare excursion for her into comedy opposite Richard Pryor (!)], THE RIVER NIGER [opposite James Earl Jones], and, of course, her magnificent, Oscar-nominated turn in SOUNDER.
Helga, I'm not mad at you; I'm mad at the dirt.
