the color purple

i bought the color purple on dvd in part because my Mom loved that movie.

it's a great film. it's good, heartwarming, and has many memorable moments, but having said that, it's more of a chick flick, but again, having said that, it's a great film.

there are moments of child birth, separation of people who love each other, people treating each other like dirt, friendship that lasts many years, even decades, moments of revenge. many turning points of people's lives. you get to know these people, in good times and bad. the main point is that freedom and liberty and self expression wins out over oppression and shame. the film is a celebration of the human spirit.
