No I didn't its true

Spoiled was slang for giving birth

She is ugly and not spoile but dishonored...by that jackass..I don't know how she can just go through life like being raped bybher own stepfather is normal.but I know it's a horrible trauma and disadvantaged and poverty.

Christopher Amissah stepfather

It's sad she was called ugly all her life she is beautiful

Stepfather

And mister also both men did mistreat celie.

He actually was her step father

youknowwhatflav You probably wouldn’t see it as bad...because it was the norm...sad but true

Unfortunately, during that era, this was the "normal" for our black sistas. Besides racism, we had to deal with sexism and many other variables.

Septia Woman this breaks my heart..

That is the best way. Yall dont know how to pick husbands, yall pick pookie and Ray Ray's to get pregnant by.

It still happens; just in a ‘modern day’ way. 😢

Exactly Smh

This is nowadays how men and corporations treat women

Yup and it made me sick hearing those two bastards.

That's how it was when men were men.

It kinda makes me think that Nettie was Alphonse’s favorite daughter and he was also overprotective of her. Hence why he refused to have her marry Albert.

+Frenchie séverine I agree it was really sad how life was back then. it''s horrible now too but back then was worse

The story took place in the late 1800's. That would be the reason for the dysfunction in the first black families to raise up out of slavery.

You have to understand at that time. 14 was considered grown at that age. Women were WAY more mature at that age than they are now. Different time period.

Actually triple double, you're wrong. The out of wedlock family birth rate was extremely low and there was more cohesion among black people. We're actually WORST off in numbers than we were back then.

whether this way or that 14 or 30 being with the guy who is supposed to be a father figure is WRONG...

"she's been spoiled, twice." means she's had sex twice, so he wouldn't want her. But it's true he didn't mention that he was the one who slept with her

That piece of 💩

@@cobaltbluevisionno, he meant she had two kids. Not have sex twice!

😔

He was a sick freak! Pedophile. 🤬

Spoiler alert: Later in the movie, she said something like: “Pa, not Pa. My children not my sister and brother”. Still absolutely disgusting that he was sleeping with her as a young girl, whilst cheating on her mother. And what was even more terrible, is that he married a girl from Gray. Ceile said: “She be almost my age”. So that means the girl was 13. Horrible and sad.

@@Daintytwinkletoes Damn! Did they actually allow that shit during that period in the South?

@Par Reech shit!

Factual? A prosperous black man owning a farm, animals, a huge house and land? With RACISM, SEGREGATION, PREJUDICE, and the fucking KKK running rampant in the South? If this film were factual he would have none of the listed above.

It’s not factual.

For the record that wasn’t her father. That was her mothers husband

@Pia Greenlaw but it’s not facts tho

Please stop this bullshit ass lie

Ok snowflake, since you're feeling that white guilt how bout you turn over your pay to all those poor black women, take care of their children and be a maid to one of them. Work your white privilege off.

@shadowdoglaw257 Biological men do it too, especially black men and the way they treat dark skinned women is utterly disgusting!!

Steven Spielberg is the greatest film maker ever.

Read the book I could not put it down read it in 1 day

इसे कहतें हैं पुरूष प्रधान देश।

I hate both Danny glover's character and her dad

That means they played their part; like Michael Easley’s character in For Colored Women

how old are you?

@@remiremsar5946 I’m curious about that too.

Hey silly, men go for younger women because they're naive and easier to manipulate. An experienced woman their age will talk back and say no. Im watching my brother realize he's not in his prime (30s) and can't use his high school tricks. The women his age have been burned too many times and are a NOT going to be used without getting something out of it. Not about to pretend to love me and my kids til you're bored and move on. You better pay a bill or buy me a $300 purse.😂😂 He say they bichs or crazy but I'm in my late 20s now, I've been through it and am on their side not my brother's

@@remiremsar5946 seems weird but its possible to have large age gaps when people start having children young. My uncle was born in the 1800’s he had 17 children, and I think 5 are still living. Also, I have cousins that are technically part of my grandmother’s generation but are younger than me.

You ain’t lying. I feel like these men go after little girls is because they’re naive and easy to manipulate. A fully grown woman can see through a man’s bs.

Mr. Perfect "Nettie, ya flat out can't have. Not now, not ever."

J Jadender he he

and when he couldn,t have her he hollered at her get the hell out of my house

Celie eventually learned that the man turned out to be her stepfather=="pa not pa..." she would later say, or rather=="father, not father..." And yet it still is tragic to be raped by any family member.

Jake Rutigliano you didn't notice which one was the narrator?

ishtar0077 black women**

basic treatment and bare minimum doesn’t mean lucky.

Two key things: IGNORANCE and INTERGENERATIONAL TRAUMA… 🥺

Mines too

I love those movies as well the wiz

great list!

I love all of them movies

Because he wanted Nettie for some really disgusting and perverted reasons, he had already given Celie two children by this time.

@@mimim6015 thank you for answering.

Yes Nettie was Pa's biological daughter. Celie's biological father was already deceased when her mother remarried.

@@marvelousmel7879 thank you for clarifying.

@@reneem4598 no problem at all.

no her dad is the priest

No, I thought so too when I was younger. But they are two different men

Because he wanted Nettie for some really disgusting and perverted reasons. He had already given Celie two children by this time.

It definitely explains today’s society

Lo que está pasando en esta escena, es que hay dos muchachas que son hermanas. Lamentablemente el padrastro violó a Celie (la protagonista con el pelo corto), y por consecuencia, tenía hijos con él. Ahora, Mister (Señor), el otro hombre quiere casar con Nettie su hermana, pero el padrastro quiere que él se casa con Celie. Es una situación dónde las hermanas están tratadas como esclavas, y por eso, estarán separadas por mucho tiempo. Espero que lo expliqué bien, perdón si hice algunos errores. Mi primer idioma no es español.
