I don't understand a particular scene


The church mass scene.
When Dakota Fanning's character stood up and it kept cutting to flashbacks. Then she went over to touch Mary..what did Queen LAtifah yell exactly before Dakota fell to the ground and why was she yelling? I got t text message in the middle of that scene and I missed out and didn't understand. Someone please explain.

I loved this movie btw. Fanning was superb as always.

Queen Latifah yelled out because June Boatwright, Alicia Keys character, stopped playing the cello when Dakota's character was about to touch the heart on the wood statue. Queen yelled out, "June!"

Adding to jblifeisgood's explanation: she said, "June! What's gotten into you?"

Distracting bizness, that texting. ;-)


It's a cookbook!
