1. What is the name of Mrs. Spalding's husband?

Answer: Royce

Royce Spalding was the sheriff. He is shot and killed shortly after the beginning of the movie.

2. What does everyone call Mrs. Spalding's daughter?

Answer: Possum

I don't know if this was the girl's real name. If it was a nickname, her real name is never given.

3. Moses is caught stealing something from the Spalding house. What is it?

Answer: Silverware

He takes it as Mrs. Spalding is fixing him a plate of food. When Moses is brought back by the deputy, she hires him to plant cotton instead of turning him in, but threatens to shoot him if he steals anything else.

4. What is the name of Mrs. Spalding's sister?

Answer: Margaret

Her sister runs a beauty shop.

Answer: Margaret's daughter

We only see Rosa Lee once or twice, but she is mentioned several times.

6. Mr. Will moves in with Mrs. Spalding as a boarder. How does he support himself?

Answer: Makes brooms and chairs

Mr. Will, played by John Malkovich, is blind. This is my favorite movie of his.

Answer: Smoking

Mrs. Spalding gives Frank a spanking for it. Afterwards, she tells Mr. Will, "I won't do that again. Ever."

8. What is the prize money for bringing in the first bale of cotton?

Answer: $100

She talks the man at the gin into bailing her cotton by reminding him that his gin has always ginned the first bale, but if he doesn't want to she would take it to Wheeler's Gin.

9. Viola is having an affair with Margaret's husband. Where is Margaret when she finds out?

Answer: A bridge game at her house

Viola pulls her hand away when Margaret's husband tries to take the cards from her. Margaret sees this and knows. After the game, she asks him if she is right and he admits it. She slaps him (of course!).

Answer: A horse shoe

He put the horse shoe up on his door earlier in the movie. He was very superstitious.
