In the film, the protagonist Sealy's experience is used as a timeline, and through the perspective of Sealy, it tells the development process of black women's personality independence and learning to fight in the era of black people's oppression. In addition to the protagonist Celie, Natty, Sophia, and Shager, these amazing women have jointly supported this struggle history of female personality independence. Celie is a girl who has experienced tragic experiences since her birth. Her mother died, she was treated unfairly by her stepfather, and she was bullied. Under the condition of long-term bullying, her sister Nadi was the only light in her life. The light was also taken away after she was sold to Albert by her stepfather. Albert drove Natty out of the house. Celie had no power to stop her, and because she had been submissive since childhood, she did not have the courage to choose to fight for it. She could only watch helplessly as her sister left, and the letter she promised to write became what she was most looking forward to. But under Albert's oppression, she never got her sister's letter. And after her husband drove away Natty, she wanted to take revenge while shaving her husband, but she couldn't make up her mind, so she obediently continued to live like this. Over the years, from the injustice at the beginning to the numbness later, Celie became reticent, repressed, and afraid to communicate with others. The first time this balance was broken was Sophia, the girlfriend of stepson Harper. She watched Sophia face the difficulties of her future father-in-law, even though she was pregnant, she still had the confidence to refuse this marriage, and she was full of confidence. Turning her head and walking away, she didn't forget to warn Harper that her patience was limited. She watched Sophia still waving her husband around after marriage, while Harper still obeyed. This was the first shock to Celie's values. But the original idea in Sealy's heart did not change, she even morbidly suggested to Harper that to make his wife obedient, she had to beat her. But Sophia is not the kind of woman who can't fight. She fought bravely against her husband and had the courage to lead the children away after disappointment. But Sophia was besieged by a group of white people after a conflict with the mayor's wife. Sent to prison for eight years. Eight years later, one of his eyes was blinded, and his fighting spirit was gradually worn away. Physically and mentally disabled. And after being released from prison, she became the maid of the mayor's wife. But Sophia is probably the silhouette of the black people who fought at that time. Even if she fought hard, she still lost to the trend of the times, suffered unfair treatment, and her edge was constantly being smoothed, but there were still people who continued to fight for black people. Appear. The development of the film at this time is the more depressing part, because it seems that there is no light in sight. For Sophia, she felt lost and confused, she lost the meaning of fighting. But for Celie, the fire of resistance has not really been ignited. At this time, another woman, Shager, who had a profound influence on Celie, reappeared. When Shager first appeared, he taught Celie what it means to love and be loved, when she felt the feeling of being loved in her heart, and Albert was just trying to please him like a clown in front of Shager. The father was new and funny to Celie. At the same time, it also made the habitually bullied Celie look at Shug like an idol. Under Sage's step-by-step enlightenment, in confusion and hopelessness, Celie gradually began to regain her independence of personality. She saw that she could look good in front of the mirror when she dressed up, she could have herself, and she could resist Her consciousness gradually awakened, and although she still didn't have the courage to escape when Shager walked for the first time, Celie had gradually begun to change. The film reaches the climax of the story when Shager returns for the second time. With Shager's help, Sealy sees the letter sent by her sister for the first time. As she gradually finished reading her sister's letter, she saw a wider world and possibilities, and a world where her sister's personality was independent. And this finally gave Celie the courage to resist. The same razor, this time she finally had the courage to take revenge on Albert, but fortunately, it was not achieved under Shuger's obstruction. At the dinner party, Celie finally summoned up the courage to make the decision to leave the house, and even dared to yell at Albert at the dinner table to fight for herself. This is Celie's first struggle, and it is a sign that Celie truly has an independent personality. And Celie's struggle at the dinner table also made Sophia regain her attitude as a female protester. It even got Harper's lover into a fight. And the part where Celie left in Shuger's car is the most exciting part of the line. Albert still thinks that she can't live without Celie, and will come back sooner or later. And Sealy shouted: "I'm poor, I'm black, I may be ugly, but thank God, I'm finally free." This passage is undoubtedly the true psychological portrayal of black people at that time, facing doubts and insults, bravely fighting and fighting rights, have their own independent personality, not as slaves and appendages. At the end of the film, these black women who fought for themselves all got a happy ending. Celie and Natty met and met their children. Finally changed his obsession, and Shager was admitted by his father in the future, and this should be the best hope and ending of this film at the end.
