This scene will make a grown man cry.

i sometimes come here and watch this scene, have a good old cry and go about my day.

One of the most beautiful scenes ever put on film.

The part that always makes me teary-eyed here is the part where Celie and Nettie hug one another - it's just the look of disbelief on Celie's face, the way she can't bring herself to hug her sister at first and the way she whispers "Hi Nettie", it's almost as if Celie's scared that she's dreaming and if she moves or speaks her sister will disappear again. But you can also tell that deep down a part of her believed she'd never see Nettie again, and she's so overcome with shock and happiness at having her back again; Whoopi's acting in this single scene was sheer brilliance and very moving.

I'm a grown man and have no problems admitting I cry like a newborn baby every single time I watch this part...just an absolutely unbelievable movie..

After 40 years of being torn away from my sibling, and seeing my kids for the first time in 40 years, I cried during this ending

I love how at the start, instead of it just being Celie, Shug and Albert (Mister) on the porch when Nettie and her group arrives (like in the book), it's instead everyone: Mary Agnes, Harpo, Sophia, Grady as well as Shug, Celie and Albert (way in the distance in the field); everyone who caused Celie to grow and evolve into the woman she is, is standing there with her when she's finally reunited with her sister and her children, it's absolutely lovely.

This scene makes me think of when I see my late husband Tim in Heaven, just the shear look of joy in his face, and *then* finally seeing my Jesus, Who has carried me through so much heartache and pain *and* has brought me so much joy!

how sad it is that after all those years gone by, she finally meets her children, and can't even communicate with them for their words and language comes from so far away. it's bittersweet; tears of joy and peace yet tears of sadness

This reunion and Shug's reunion with her father are my favorite parts of the movie. Oh, and when Celie wanted to carve up Albert at the dinner table!

I'm not crying! I've watched this scene a million and twenty time, I am NOT crying! Someone is just always cutting up a bunch of onions every time I watch it!

One of the greatest scenes of all time.

There are some movies that really touch the spirit of human survival, love and perserverance. This movie is true magic for it's ability to grip your soul and peel you like an onion, layer by layer. I truly believe that anyone who doesn't come away from this movie without a tears in their eyes bears no soul. Some of the scenes in the feature are even haunting. I even love listening to the movie sountrack they made for it to this day. This movie is a "must have " in any dvd collection. I THINK IT PISSES GOD OFF WHEN YOU WALK BY THE COLOR PURPLE IN A FIELD, AND DON'T NOTICE IT. Thank you Alice Walker, Berry Gordy and Steven Speilberg for a treasure on earth to be seen and heard by generations.

I've seen this movie at least 20 times and I always cry at this scene. I've got tears running down my face right now.

One of the most beautiful moments ever committed to the screen. So wonderful and moving. Adore it.

I cried so hard I was so happy for Celie

Whoopi Goldberg is nothing short of fantastic as an actress here. I loved her in "Ghost" where she did finally win an Oscar (Best Supporting Actress), but this movie's performance is legions higher than "Ghost!" She and the rest of this movie was flat-out robbed at the Oscars.

This scene always makes me cry

I started crying when Olivia started crying.

When the guy greets his mom it gets me every time 😢😢😢 God damn Spielberg you’re the greatest.

For years I would cry whenever I saw this scene. I don't think i'll ever get over this movie not winning a single Oscar. It's as if no one acted in this movie. Everyone did such an amazing job, I felt like I was watching real life. Can't always say that about a performance.

Everytime, I view this one clip, it reminds me if the 1000 year Reign of Christ, where I get the chance to welcome my Mama back, I just cry every time I view this one clip.... This lovie...Over 34 years ago, seem like yesterday, when my husband and I went to see it @ the movie theater.... Amazing!!!!. I gave a color purple party @ my home we had so much fun!!!!

There are few movies that resonate emotion so beautifully...this is one of those films.

The scene always reminded me of heaven on earth. I always cry, I hope they are waiting in heaven for us like this.

My favorite film. When Celie hugs Olivia, I start blubbering like a baby.

Damn onions...this scene kills me

I can never avoid tears when I watch this scene.

this book is great. ive read it numerous times. it never gets old. I always try not to cry when I watch this.

This is one of the few movies that ever made me shed tears of joy. This scene legitimately made me cry because I was so happy.

The most perfect ending to the most perfect movie ever made

I have this on DVD.... watched it, no lie over a hundred times ..... sob uncontrollably every time, raw human emotion......one of the best movies EVER......... I have three grown boys.... and they always say to me .... momma , momma boni....... lol

Only film that ever made me cry! Brings back some good memories from my childhood too 😢😊

A masterpiece I just let the tears fall

Definitely a tear jerker.....especially when Celie is running towards Nettie but stops just short of reaching her; like she's afraid she's imagining this wonderful moment and if she touches Nettie she may dissolve into thin air. Celie has been wronged so much in her life that this feeling of absolute joy is actually FOREIGN to her. This film and all of the nominated actors were seriously robbed of their rightful accolades during award season......

"Momma!" Dear Lord I can't stop crying.

The theme music to this day still gets me all choked up..one of the most powerful scenes in the movie..Heart felt/heart warming O:-)

No matter how many times I see this film, I can't hold back the tears. An absolutely profound film.

one of the most powerful scenes in any movie!! if you don't get emotional at this your not human!!!

This is such an amazing movie. Whenever it comes on TV I always. stop and watch it. Celie had such a hard life... this scene was so touching because she finally got her family back. Such a powerful scene.

Best movie of all time.. i still get teary eyed at this scene lol.

This is one of the most AMAZING movies, EVER! Whoopie Goldberg's and Oprah's acting in particular, was so incredible, it went into another universe

I have a developmentally delayed child who is 14 a few years ago she was in the shower and needed a towel and for the first time in my life I heard her say “Mama”. I couldn’t believe it. How precious it is to have someone hold you and say “Mama”

Every time, I start crying...one of the most touching scenes in any film.

I never cried so much in a movie before or since this one. Truly a masterpiece of storytelling.

THIS STILL MAKES ME CRY. Wow.

the best movie ever what a tear jerker at this reunion

Lord i tear up everytime...just seeing them together again right back to where they were.,.after all they been through

..oh man...every time..even after so many years,same feeling..on every scene..guys,thank u for make that movie..

One of the most powerful scenes in Hollywood Cinema.

Watching a scene like this inspires me. Some people still believe film/television is lowbrow art, but we are witnessing artists. They inspire us, they make us question our lives, they make difficult decisions when we cannot, they make us believe we can be stronger, they can connect with us in a way that no one else can. Actors and filmmakers are our Rembrandts and Da Vincis. They are our Hemingways.

No need to thank me. I was more than happy to upload it. Thank YOU for viewing it, and appreciating its true value and meaning.

He could have allowed them two to at least see each other. All that wasted time she could have had with her kids and he took that away from Her. I know he regretted now because at the end she had her family and he was left alone.

I swear I cannot watch this film and not cry my heart out!

Albert at the end. 😭 he finally did the right thing for her

Not even to stand on that prodigious apogee of Everest herself, or to see the Sistine Chapel for the first time with my own naive eyes will offer the same power as this remarkable film. I could be alone surrounded by the distant echoes of birdsong with the pleasant smell in which the past evenings dew has mustered up within the grassy flora at my feet whilst awaiting the sunrise of a brand new day and it may just pale in comparison to this life affirming film. Let it be said that all of the above are miracles of nature but The Color Purple IS in itself a natural miracle. Beautiful, beautiful film with a stellar cast and the absolute truth of humanity which runs throughout it in all of its complex facets. Chris (UK).

Makes me cry everytime..

I cry so much every time this scene happens, and also when Shug reunites with her father in the church. The only other movie to make me weep like this is "Boyz n the Hood" when Ricky gets shot.

I'm not crying...you're crying!!

I could watch this every day and still ugly cry each time. It's such a moving scene and an incredible film. The acting is perfect.

Cried every-time!! Still do... My number 1 film ever

if you didn't cry during this scene....it's impossible to not cry during this scene

All my tears are worth it for this movie.

This whole movie is a tear jerker.

First time i saw this scene, it made me cry hard!

Such an absolutely touching end sequence Celies Home Coling Color Purple a great movie

I can't think of but one word. BEAUTIFUL?????

This whole movie had me in tears🤦‍♀️😭

i cant stop crying. the movie is incredible

This is such a beautiful scene. I always cry when I see it.

Reunited and it feels so good.

Why do they cut that scene it is so sad the two sisters play the hand clapping game that they did as youths and in the background Alnert walks by with his horse, a great scene classic speilberg but so often it is cut out.

I got thru the whole movie without a tear but this scene when her family comes home,all grown up and living in Africa ,I lose it

I've seen this a gazillion times and still cry. The acting and Quincy Jones soundtrack makes this one of the top films around.

This was a bueatiful movie really.

One of the best movies I ever seen that don’t ever want to watch again. Too damn sad.

Thank you, kind person. I really needed to hear those uplifting words tonight. You made my night. Bless you.

Grief, even after all these years..I cry like a baby, lol!

other then God trying to tell you something... I cried my soul out

2018!...who still loves this movie?❤

Dang on ,Decades later& this scene got me tearing🥺🥺see what the Devil came to do. And God restored it and more🙏🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

As a woman of Congolese origins, who recognizes the language spoken by Celie's children (Lingala), and who happens to appreciate this movie, I confirm that Nettie's translation is absolutely INCORRECT :-D

best film ever and 1 fav dosent matter how many time watch this brings tears to eyes

The actors and actresses in this movie were fantastic. I will say it again, this movie should have won an oscar. Um....many oscars

I showed this movie to my friend about a decade ago. I told him that it was one of the best films I had ever seen and he'd be smiling by the end. He told me to never recommend another movie to him again, because it was about the most heart-wrenching 2 hours he had ever endured. About halfway through, he turned to me and said, "When am I supposed to start smiling?! Dear God!"

wiping away tears....get's me every time.....21 years later....wow

I want a daughter so bad 😖😫😓

I bawl EVERY TIME I see this it hits a deep place inside of me from my own past. Just watched it again and started sobbing....

I think i was seven when i saw this movie...and it was the first movie that made me cry at the end but not b/c I was sad. Very grown up feeling for a little girl and will always remain one of my most cherished movies b/c of that.

When I was about 8 my mom was taking a class for college and had to write a report on this movie so I watched it with her. At the end after bawling I asked her why did she make me watch this? Now i am 34 and I still watch this and cry with my mom. Such an amazing movie.

The best ''black'' film for me ......... Love this and all actors here.... very very good film!

It tears, damn, this movie, every time. Incredible performances. Spectacular film.

Favorite scene of the movie. I'm still wiping away tears.

After all these years I still cry while watching this movie, this movie is one of those great movies that continues to touch your body and soul ,when Avery sings speak to me oh my god and she walks up to her father and he puts his arms around her I melted,when natty and cerly come together after so many years i melted ,(sorry if I spelled the names wrong)anyway I love this movie and I always will,whoppi ,Oprah and Avery these women are amazing actress.

Anyone who doesn't cry their eyes out every time this movie ends is dead inside and out.

Just a taste of that glorious day when we meet our loved ones again in heaven.🤗

The disbelief on Celie's face is enough to bring anyone with a heart to tears.

Can you imagine the emotions she's going through at that moment.

I cried here whoopi is an amazing actress.

Every time I see this scene tears just come. No matter how many times I see this movie!!

what unsung acting legend is whoopi goldberg as she said i maybe ugly but i m here thank you whoopi
