Shaving Mister

Some men push women to far .....

[@trudreamer613]

"That razor look dull to me Miss. Ceelie." LMAO that razor was so sharp ole Mista wouldn't have even felt his throat being cut and by the look on Ceelie's face, she was about to slit him from ear to ear.

Always loved how Shug stopped Celie from becoming a murderer, despite how much she despised Mister and how terrible he was to her.

[@skylx0812]

Its like Sophia said, "He ain't worth it, Miss Celie...". They knew prison would be a worse hell for her because Sophia went there.

[@TheQuota2001]

I mean, “Mr” and his father were prodominent black people in this town, during a time in which racism was still very big. You see they have that huge house, big farm. Sealy would’ve been in heaps of trouble is she unalived him.

[@Jadensamma]

This entire scene was just so chilling. The music really just amplified every bit of it. Celie had enough. And Shug knew it. Watching the scene with the tribal music just added to the overwhelming sense of dread like: Shit, Shug, run FASTER!

[@Tim_Serpell]

Why was Shug running in the first place? :-)

[@Jadensamma]

Tim Serpell Because she knew about Mister's long history of abusing Celie. All the beating, the intimidation, hiding the letters. She knew that Celie had about reached the end of her limit with it all and then when the kids said she was getting ready to shave him, she connected the dots and knew that if she didn't get there to stop her, she was GOING to kill him.

[@obiwanthewiseass]

Jadensamma Seeing the red on her nails was also a clue on it. You could say God made her see that fact, Albert was just knocking on the devil's door for all these years yet he was too stupid to see that and he was just about to him as well had Shug not been there. Then he proved to be more stupid after she held another sharp object at his neck when he continues to insult her, this man was just asking for her to kill him. You keep kicking an animal long enough eventually it's going to attack

I so agree! This is one of my fave scenes from his movie. The symbolism is just superb. This whole movie is ... wow. Everyone did a great job.

[@1977Playmate]

Please tell me what was the sacrificial ceremony for? Why did those kids have to endure that? The scene was intense no doubt, but what exactly were they trying to say by correlating those two events. I don't see what one has to do with the other. I was always curious. What was the symbolism? I knew something significant was happening. I just didn't know what.

[@TheRocbe]

@@1977Playmate It was a forced marriage ceremony the marriage of cili and mister was forced. Her children forced marriage in Africa signified the end of misters Power over cili. There is a lot more going on. Shug in the red dress running up the road! Cili's blood on her face the glasses fall on top of the letter she hid in an open book fell to the ground.

Spielberg may have lost his fastball but this scene here underscores why he is one of the best filmmakers of ALL time. No why to the describe the tension when you see this for the first time.

[@1977Playmate]

Very interesting how a privileged white man (elite) can so clearly tell a story from our past. I know it's not a true story, but many lives in that time were just like that. Talk to grandparents and elders. I know Alice Walker wrote the novel, but his directing skills were awesome in 85. I'd like to see him do something similar now.

[@1977Playmate]

@Chairman Lmao I stand corrected. My point is that he isn't black or poor nor did his life have any similarities to having to live like this. Still, he got it spot on. That is a true talent, to be able to tell the story of another culture so vividly without experiencing the hardships of it.

[@Bluebelle9289]

Spielberg is Jewish@@1977Playmate. Not white. He only looks white because he has European ancestry mixed with his Jewish ancestry.

[@realreviews4017]

Agree, it is a masterpiece in creating tension, emotions, and the music and editing is second to none in this scene. Fast forward to 2024 and they should not have tried to remake this film.

[@janaejones8709]

This has always been my favorite scene. When I was a little girl I use to rewind this part 100 x just to hear the Africans chanting. I felt it down in my soul. An unexplainable connection. I always wondered, what did this ritual mean?

[@Tricee71]

After reading the letters, this is how Celie envisioned what was happening with her children. In the actual book, the children were much older and that was Adam and Tashi getting married. To Celie, they were her babies, and she could not imagine them as adults, so she likened it to how it must be to shave someone when they received their tribal scars.

[@1977Playmate]

EXACTLY! ME TOO!! Maybe the song reignites deep in your spirit. Track your ancestry. The mind and spirit are two beautiful things. We never loose any information. It just becomes buried underneath all the new information we are loaded with. It's like how your grandmother can say you remind her of her grandmother. Although you've never met her, a piece of her is still active in you.

[@MicJacks]

My mother bought this soundtrack for "Gods tryin' to tell you something". I grabbed it as soon as I saw it for the music from this scene. Straight to the walkman lol. I saw this with her in the theater. One of my most shaken in the theater moments ever.

[@ellemababa4023]

In Africa some of our tribes have tribal marks ( small cuts on the face) as a right of passage and initiation from childhood to adolescence. They are symbolic, and the ritual is performed by the tribal elders.

[@courtneyroberts4188]

Tribal marks are very special and significant in the ancient African tradition. If you are chosen or apart of a tribe, they mark you so that you will never forget who you are or where you come from. You are chosen by the ancestors. ❤

[@1977Playmate]

I saw this in theaters with my parents when I was 8. I didn't know much about anything, but I sure did understand what was happening in this movie. My mother realized I understood when she saw me crying. For years I absolutely hated Danny Glover. I was a kid and all I knew was that's the man who kept hurting that girl. My father used to work out a lot & was super buff and really strong. I would tell my father, "daddy, you should beat up mister".

[@califgirl101]

you know, I've always favored this scene simply because #1 Celie was so getting tired of Mister's physical and mental abuse and 2. Albert took her sister away from Celie! So much so, that Celie finally found her strength and inner potential to break away from Mister and to be free at last!

[@TommyTomTompkins]

+califgirl101 she was about to O.J his azz

[@daekwondaprophet1121]

I noticed that too for three reasons: 1. During the majority of the film, she is like a possession just having things done to her such as being raped by her father and husband, treated like a maid/slave/nanny by her husband. She does not feel like she has any self worth and is quick to believe the names that her husband calls her, making her feel like that is just her life and she has to accept it. 2. When Mister hit her in the opening of this scene (the most important in the movie), it brought up all of the mistreatment she had to deal with her whole life and at that moment, she decided to assert herself. She decided to kill Mister as an act of taking back her freedom and her womanhood. That tribal scene was to emphasise the effect of the possible savagery that may happen if she decides to slit Mister’s throat. 3. Celie is finally able to be seen even though she is standing next to Shug who is such a polarising figure. In other words, she now has her own identity.

[@fiversrevenge]

If only she found it when she and Shug found the letters. Why didn't she write back to her? Why didn't Celie steal Mister's stash of cash and leave him sooner? Why didn't Celie just leave with Nettie when she got booted off Mister's property? SOOOOO..... many plot holes!!!!

Whoopi aint ugly to me..well now in real life she looks bad...but in this movie she looks cute to me....

[@NORIEGA200]

I never thought Whoppi was ugly either. She looks kinda ruff in some parts of this movie but not really ugly. I think people just say that because she is dark skin with natural hair. Very sad

[@TommyTomTompkins]

NORIEGA200 agreed

[@DeAndreFlyboi]

NORIEGA200 That's not why. She ain't attractive to me. I know allot of dark women with natural hair that look attractive. Whoopie ain't one of them imo

[@SugarHoneyIceTea90]

neanam I always thought that too!

[@SuiteJolie]

Whoopi isn’t ugly at all ; even today she’s not ugly .

[@dredre_lj2003]

For some reason this is my FAVORITE scene because of the African ritual and Celie had enough of his nonsense, also Mister next time when you put someone through hell don't do it to the wrong person who is finished
