Directed by Steven Spielberg, this film is a sterling adaptation of Alice Walker's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. Whoopi Goldberg stars as Celie, a Southern woman whose correspondence with her sister in Africa helps her escape an abusive husband (portrayed with a scary edge by Danny Glover). Quincy Jones's evocative soundtrack and a moving performance by Oprah Winfrey make this Oscar-nominated film an all-time favorite.
I have always wondered about this movie mostly because Oprah made it super famous since she was in it. It was interesting and really very good. Not sure it was worth all the hype back in the day though.
Perhaps....
