"Purple"
Spent two lunchtimes this weekend watching a movie about black women. The reason why I watched it in two days was because I couldn't stand the depressing atmosphere of the movie?
First of all, what is this film about... I will summarize it myself, see how much I can say haha~ Siri and Nante are a pair of black sisters, their mother died and they live with their stepfather, but they don't Knowing that the stepfather is not their real father, they were abused, and Xi Li was even forced to have a relationship with the stepfather. The remaining one man and one woman were sold to others. Although life was so desperate and sad, because the two sisters had a very good relationship, They depend on each other and keep each other warm, so there are still some warm memories. But the ruthless stepfather married Celie to a man whose wife had died, and Celie was forced to separate from Nanti. She was in that man's house, his servant, a tool for his lust, hers Personality is ruthlessly trampled on. Until one day, Nante came to seek refuge with Celie, because her stepfather's constant harassment made her unbearable, she escaped, Celie persuaded her husband to take in Nanti, so they had a bittersweet time again , During this time, Nanti taught Siri to read and write, which paved the way for her to be able to read the letters she wrote to her after her departure. The good times didn't last long. Celie's husband fell in love with Nanti and wanted to rape her, but he tried to get rid of her. slaves, no longer resist.
The turning point of the matter came when the husband's lover appeared at their house, the enthusiastic and free-spirited Xia Ge, Xili took good care of her when she was sick, which moved Xia very much, she wrote a song for Xili. She sang the song and sang it to her. She praised Siri and became a good friend with Siri, which also made Siri gradually lose her inferiority complex. The final breaking point was when Xia Ge left and came back to find that Nanti wrote to Xi Li. Li's letter, Celie knew that Nanti was not dead and lived with Celie's two children. At this time, her husband began to be dissatisfied with her work efficiency and continued to oppress her. Influenced by such things, she finally broke through the cage that imprisoned her and rose up to resist. She left her husband and had her own house and shop. In the end, with the help of her husband, she was reunited with her sisters and children.
The ending was also... very emotional. The husband ended up alone in the end, but he could be regarded as knowing his mistake and redeeming himself. Celie also had a happy ending after so much suffering.
In this film, I can understand that there is discrimination and unfair treatment of black people by white people; there is discrimination and unfair treatment of women in black families; but I also saw the kindness and kindness of black people, and I also saw Women are dissatisfied with the courage to stand up to oppression.
Life should be beautiful and happy.
Let me think again, why this movie is named after purple, the beginning and the end of the movie are both Siri and Nanti in a sea of purple flowers, the beginning is play, the end is reunion, Nanti is writing to Siri A dried flower will be included in the letter, so I guess it belongs to the testimony of the family and friendship between the two of them. They are sisters who depend on each other, and they are each other's best friends, and they are two people who love each other deeply.
