Raw and simple feelings touch my nerves

Purple, which is red wrapped in blue, is also blue wrapped in red, and it goes well with the blues jazz in the film.
In fact, I don't think the black women in the film are so brilliant, and I even think they are stupid, but when they are older, they are a little more enlightened. The black men in the film are equally ignorant. These black people are probably what people look like before they receive an acquired education. Most of their words and deeds are based on instinct, a primitive impulse, with directness without thinking, and emotions. This kind of unrefined feeling is not very beautiful at first glance, but it is the easiest to touch people's hearts, because everyone can't get rid of the primitive in the deepest heart.
Ugly hero and heroine, a group of black people with little education, a little humor, a little sadness, Steven Spielberg moved me silently again.

The Color Purple quotes

  • Sofia: Sat in that jail, I sat in that jail til I near about done rot to death. I know what it like to wanna go somewhere and cain't. I know what it like to wanna sing... and have it beat out 'ya. I want to thank you, Miss Celie, fo everything you done for me. I 'members that day in the store with Miss Millie - I's feelin' real down. I's feelin' mighty bad. And when I seed you - I know'd there is a God. I know'd there is a God.

  • Squeak: You just a big ol' heifer!
