One of my all time favorite movies. The tragedy is also that with Netty and Celie owning that farm after their mom died, Celie never had to be with Mr. in the first place. They could’ve legally kicked their “dad” to the curb.

But she would have probably not even known her children were in Africa. Her sister helped her stay connected to her kids.

@rmarie5725 14 күн бұрын

In the early 1900s, they wouldn’t have had the power to kick him off the land. They were still female. And children at the age when their mother died. If a man didn’t claim the land and live on it, the state could’ve ceased it

I saw your original reaction to this before it was taken down. Was happy to watch it again because I remembered how compelling YOUR reaction was. Thank you for being committed to keeping this reaction alive. I wish more people reacted to it. I still believe the "Maybe God is Tryin' to Tell You Somethin'" scene when Shug reconciles with her father is one of the greatest moments in cinematic history. Remember when Celie was combing Shug's hair in the bathtub shortly after Shug arrived the first time? Shug talks about how her father loves her--he just doesn't know it. During that song, he remembers. It's beautiful.

I need to see it once every 10 years or so, for that beautiful ending, where I cry every single time... my heart swelling with emotion, and the precious last scene....omg, just a great ending....Bravo to all involved.

Written by Alice Walker, this was required reading when I went to school. We learned all about the various black authors and reading their books was a must. I think Spielberg did a good job bring it to film. But the book was a rough read. Sadly girls were married off young and some black men, not all were marred mentally. This is just a sample of some men, but not all. But women and blacks in general life was hard, but still rise like a Phoenix despite oppression.

I was just thinking that. I haven't read it yet but I need to prepare mentally. Danny Glover was my high school graduation speaker. He's a great actor cuz I wanted to bust his face and his father's face. The cast was phenomenal. Spielberg did that. And to the Alice Walker..thank you.

@Divamarja_CA 4 ай бұрын

I saw this movie on opening day, with my family. And I have to say that we all were happy that Celie found a modicum of happiness and acceptance (and pleasure) with Shug. It opened her eyes to a sliver of a chance of another life.

Great movie review, Fix! As a person, who saw TCP, in the movie theater, live in 1985 when it 1st premiered... I am happy that younger "1st time" viewers such as yourself, also enjoyed this classic movie. (The fact that... although nominated for 11 Academy Awards that year... but this movie "won" not even 1 award, let's you realize how "things" were going down... in 1985-86! (As if... any actor in the Female category... could've deserved an award MORE, than Whoopie Goldberg's performance in a leading role, as "Celie!" C'mon now lol. But that was then... and this is now. As long as the movie exists, people will forever know and honor its existence... as one of the greatest movies of all time! (Or at least... the greatest movie, nominated for 11 Academy Awards... without winning 'nere 1!

I cry everytime I watch this show. But hear me out guys.... unfortunately Mister was a product of a nasty, ugly cycle that his dad created. A family dynamic that he tried to pass on to Harpo as well. It was all around sad. Mister was a horrible person but he did right in the end. The crazy part is I cry harder for him in the end....because he did good and possible broke the cycle and no one knew, but Shug. It gets me every time that he could push pass everything to do the right thing.

it so sad. being from and living in georgia, you know the stories. black men were made to keep their women in check back in slavery days because the Men would sometimes get beat in their place. It is generational and a whole Lot of black families Still suffer from this passed down trauma

Please react to Claudine! I think it was 1974, starring James Earl Jones and Diahann Carroll, as well as others I'm sure you'll recognize. A single mother in New York on welfare, going through the trials n tribulations of being a maid and trying to make a relationship work, while raising her young teens and adolescent children. One of the baddest soundtracks in cinema in my opinion. It's funny, heartwarming, and slick, all rolled in one. Check it out.😊
