Purple Rain (HD DVD, 2007)

Prince's "Purple Rain" was my favorite album when it was released back in 1984. It remains my favorite album to this day. Needless to say, a great deal of my affection for the movie it serves as the soundtrack to directly correlates with my feeling toward the music contained within. However, even distancing myself from the music to view the film on its own terms, I still think it's pretty good stuff all in all, with a surprisingly resonant theme of a misfit man-child trying to find meaning in his life, getting no support from anyone, or at least, he rejects it when it is freely offered. The fact that it contains fantastic music to punctuate the inner turmoil he subjects himself too is just icing on the cake, and together, the movie and the soundtrack, have a synergy that feed off of each other until you can't think of one without the other. It's a time capsule film of a musical genius at the peak of his creativity. A vanity project from inception, but this one actually pays off -- Prince knew he had the talent to be a superstar, and after this film, so did everyone else.

this is a movie that prince is great in i love his music and the movie purple rain is A+ you must have this movie

I saw Purple Rain on HD-DVD & I like it. If like it was the remake & it even has Audio* Dolby True HD. I love the 80s & this is one of my collections.

les images sont a la hauteur du HD DVD le son l'est aussi. le film quant à lui vaut ce qu'il vaut. il faut aimer PRINCE avec son flegme ,, ça se laisse regarder, rien que pour les chansons en haute qualité valent le déplacement

This movie is a must have for your movie collection. It reminds me of the great music and great times of my youth. They just don't make music like the 80's.
