Now that I have seen the trailer for THE HELP, I would like to know what else she's done that's worth seeing.

I really loved her in Fruitvale Station. One of the biggest snubs at the Oscars that year, she was fantastic.

She was stabbed to death by Michael Myers in Halloween 2. Not a great movie, but a twisted death scene for sure.

Blue Streak. "Janiece! Yo' sad sack 'a bones is here." Brilliant. And don't get me started on Spider-Man.

She plays a small but memorable role in Dinner For Schmucks. Freakin' hilarious. She plays a woman that can communicate with dead animals.

The Help is her best performance yet.

I LOVED it when she got killed in "Halloween 2!!!!" She died so gracefully! LOL! I did actually like the film itself too, though the IMDb nerds assaulted the hell out of it for being "different" from the original "Halloween 2."

She's certainly getting acclaimed for this and this is so much an ensemble film that really, she's one of the main actresses in it.
Life, every now and then, behaves as though it had seen too many bad movies

I think this is Octavia's "break out" role-she's more than paid her acting dues!! I hope this is the beginning of starring roles!

Let's just say she has far more range in this movie than when she was getting psychic visions from dead lobsters.

She knocked that Minny character out of the ballpark!

Lucky you. I suppose this is the first time you saw her in a movie?
