The Color Purple--It is Directed by Steven Spielberg
Black women's struggle for sovereignty.
1. Celie: It's hard for me to imagine what happened to this 14-year-old woman. She was raped by her father and gave birth to a son and a daughter. The boy's name was Adam, and the girl's name...

The Color Purple--A Intoxicated And Quietly Watched Film
I just finished watching Spielberg's early work, The Purple. The film is different from the video style of the previous masters. It is separated from the science fiction film, and the reborn literary documentary is blowing in the wind. The grasp of the rhythm of the story, the use of color, and the choice of music make a film that can be intoxicated and quietly watched in today's fast-paced life.

I have to say that the master's lens still makes me use it even now!
Celie's inner changes were accumulated over time. She suffered inhuman treatment and was brought back to a prison-like place like an animal. Everything she did was passive, and she had no sense of being alive. Forbearance was the only way to survive. Imagine that in such a time and space, there is no motivation for her to break through. It is her sister, Xiuge, and Sophia who are quietly changing her. Looking at those...

The movie A Color of Purple was adapted from the book the same title written by Alice Walker in 1982 and then it was directed by Steven Spielberg in 1985. A Color of Purple was awarded the Oscar awards after it was released and it was first about a prominent black feminist story.
The word “Purple” stands for “distress” as well as “courage” and “insight" in Christianity. The “distress” of a fourteen-year-old girl and the “courage” and “insight” could be found in the character Celie in the...

All beings, any "I think" is a prejudice, there is no right or wrong, and the values inherent in each person are just one of many values! So I can only talk about my prejudice, but try to be more objective!
"Purple" is simply all-encompassing and huge, each character can lead to a piece of history, more than a thousand words can describe!
Why is it called purple? Perhaps purple is the color that is closest to black from black to white, which also shows the embarrassing...

Background: "Purple" is the first black-themed film in American film history. The main actors are almost all black, and most of the staff involved in the filming are also people of...

What you have done to others, will you believe that they may have done it to you in silence? After all, you know who is the one you love the most and who will be the one who will always love...

It is also sensational. Personally, I think Spielberg's purple is more solid than a war horse. The whole play combines a huge power under calm, like a decadent purple under...
Shug: [to Celie] You sho' is ugly!
Squeak: Harpo! Who dis woman?
Harpo: Now come now, you know who this is.
Squeak: She best'a leave you alone.
Sophia: Fine with me.
Harpo: [to Sophia] You ain't got to go nowhere. Dis here my juke-joint.
Squeak: [to Harpo] You said dis here our juke-joint!
Harpo: Listen woman, can't a man dance with his wife if he wants to?
Squeak: Not if she a heifer!
[to Sophia]
Squeak: And not if he my man! You just a big ol heifer. Ha Ha Ha.
Sophia: [to Squeak] Like I said, fine with me!
Old Mr.: [referring to Shug] She black as tar, nappy-headed, got legs like baseball bats, and I hear she got that nasty women's disease.
