Dakota Fanning & Jennifer Hudson are Bee-st Friends

Actress Dakota Fanning and actress/singer Jennifer Hudson from the film The Secret Life Of Bees, pose for a portrait during the 2008 Toronto International Film Festival at The Sutton Place Hotel in Toronto, Canada on Saturday.

Via Wiki:Set in South Carolina in 1964, The Secret Life of Bees tells the story of Lily Owens, whose life has been shaped around the blurred memory of the afternoon her mother was killed. When Lily’s fierce-hearted black “stand-in mother,” Rosaleen, insults three of the deepest racists in town, Lily decides to spring them both free. They escape to Tiburon, South Carolina – a town that holds the secret to her mother’s past. Taken in by an eccentric trio of black beekeeping sisters, Lily is introduced to their mesmerizing world of bees and honey, and the Black Madonna.

The film is based off the 2002 best selling novel of American author Sue Monk Kidd and will be released on Oct. 17.
