For all the people out there who claimed UTCM was wack, there has to be a great amount of others that thought is was great. I AM ONE OF THEM. Part of what made it digestible was the music. I wasn't looking for Purple Rain II. It was 1986. A whole new era. It was ill that P&TR switched their whole style up and not look/sound corny in the process.

[@sujugothkitten]

I think Prince's movie Graffiti Bridge qualifies as Purple Rain II lol

[@gregorygriffin6341]

@@sujugothkitten Yeah. In fact it is.

[@avace917]

I don't think you'll get many arguments regarding the music. That's thought by many to be his best album or 2nd best behind SOTT. For the movie it's probably split opinion between his fans. It looks gorgeous. That I CAN say.

Yet will always be the critic of others works!! I Love UTCM and everything else Prince produced!! No one could touch prince!! Period!!

It has a lot of deliberate humor, great music and some really satisfying and memorable scenes.

[@TheSteveSteele]

Susan Roger’s “Hero’s Journey” metaphor is perfectly apt concerning Prince in 1985-86. With Parade, Prince had pushed the boundaries so far - he didn’t even recognize himself anymore, and he certainly wasn’t the Purple Rain kid anymore, much to fan’s confusion. There was just no going back. Brilliant. That’s artistry. That’s commitment!

[@TheSteveSteele]

Prince should have used Kristen Scott Thomas more during the promotional phase of Under the Cherry Moon. She possibly could have brought some much needed positive attention to the film. She was, by far, the best thing about that film. Morris Day practically saved Purple Rain, and Kristen Scott Thomas saved the few salvageable moments of UTCM.

[@Sinnik22]

Crazy how she bashed her own performance in Under the Cherry Moon

Under The Cherry Moon was an ambitious attempt to show his inspiration. Prince grew up in a time where those Black and White films were played frequently. But, people weren't over Purple Rain yet. They still aren't. That's how timeless the movie has become. Cherry, showed another side of Prince which was whimsical. But, it was very ambitious and needed more realistic visuals. Prince was a Black Man. People questioned his choices of female Actress. There were African American women around. Some were offended by his choice. The world was changing then. Anyway. He's the Artist and knew he had to bring it after Purple Rain.

[@Sinnik22]

I read that Mary Lambert & his management suggested more women of color. Prince said that his community needs to see this side of life. Which side was right?

[@garfieldharrison510]

@@Sinnik22 his management was right. Yes. There are people who married and dates outside their race. I get it. But, even Michael Jackson understood this psychological deficit of you know what you know. The familiarity complex. Although it was the 80s era. Michael Jackson still had a an African American Women in Thriller and The Way You Make Me Feel short films. So that tells you the scope of where these two great artists were reaching. Prince already surpassed his own expectations in the mainstream sector. Maybe could've reeled it back in a bit. In the end it was his vision.

Whenever I came up with anything it would become someone else’s idea/intellectual property. I learned so much. I would never want to be in that position ever again.
