About The Color Purple:
Academy Award winner Whoopi Goldberg, Danny Glover and Oprah Winfrey star in director Steven Spielberg's adaptation of Alice Walker's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Color Purple. From 1909 to 1949, Celie (Goldberg--Ghosts of Mississippi), a Southern Black woman, gradually gains self-respect as she strives to educate herself and to find love--despite an abusive spouse and a society biased against her race and her sex.​

Shows the racism that still existed in the 80s. Was such a collaborative effort getting this film made. Sad so many were against it. Saw the film recently on the big screen and wow it was amazing. There were a few families, a black man and his daughter. I’ve seen the film countless times but envied that kid seeing it for the first time on the big screen.

As a 56 year old white guy, this movie still brings me to tears each time I've seen it (which has been many) since it was first released. Yes, it's a African American story which I can appreciate, but it also truly crosses over any race and tells a very "human" story. One of my all time fave movies with perfect casting and can't imagine any other actor playing any of the roles. Truly sad that it never got the awards it truly deserved.

And what Danny Glover said is so true about how age is an equalizer, it can help us see things differently. I hope you may find this true for you. 😊

This movie is such a treasure. And it seems that there were almost divine intervention that helped bring al of these wonderful people together. Margaret Avery as Shug Avery, Oprah and Harpo, can’t just be coincidence

Once I wrote / directed / /edited / produced this one short film. One of the main actors was in NY trained for the theater stage. We met abroad for a production and got along well. At the time I was working as the Assistant to the Director, and also was getting my things into gear. With the script done, I told him that this project would never be done unless he was the main male lead. So his initial reaction was that he wanted to work with me on the script. When he got my first draft, he was like "Don't change a word." It was more or less basically written for him, but I told him to say certain lines as a throwaway line (he emphasized everything on the first take as if he would be on a theater stage). And he had to act against an "amateur" actress, who flubbed her few lines and kinda wasn't used to how film sets work He - in later workshops that he held - told everyone that the best advice he was given was more or less like "Nikita told me that he wrote the script and he as a Director...this line is not important. Just drop it." Here's the key for movies. My other lead was severely intimidated, since she didn't understand that - even though the budget was poor - production values would be more than she expected them to be. The D.O.P. insisted to try to prove me wrong in pre-production when I, due to logistics (and for budgetary reasons), had to show him that his elaborate lighting set-rig never would work for this gig. It was a happy accident that I am still proud of.
