  • Eye opener, tearjerker, and triumph!

    Just as much, as you fall in love with the girls, and the women in this movie, you feel what they want you to feel, they set the stage, as if you were there, you understand them, I can't imagine any other girls, or women playing these rolls, they did an amazing job. The men in this movie, do such a good job, at making you dislike them, to almost pure hatred! My heart went out to these women, and I longed to slug the men! This movie depicts what is supposed to be a simpler time, and it was, but no better, women back then lead a life of hell, at the hands of unfit men, who didn't know any better, but I love how sweet the revenge was, and how pure the love was, and the scenery, it really takes you to another time, and place, there is not much left anymore. I love this movie, and I always will, I love the lessons, and the message of forgiveness.

  • Outstanding performances and story.

    I've always loved this movie. Whoopie stole my heart in this role and after watching it recently, I saw in the credits "introducing" Whoopie Goldberg. So apparently this was her first movie role. Oprah also has a great part and is very impressive as is Danny Glover. Overall it's an awesome film that follows a theme of female suppression by a husband that applies to all races, but told specifically from African American viewpoint.

  • Excellent Black film.

    I ordered this film during Black History month. I found this film very informative about the plight of Black people in the South, and how women were treated as 2nd class citizens. The quality of the DVD was excellent, however I was disappointed I was required to flip the disc in mid film, to view the rest of the movie. 11 Academy award nominations and not a single win. It deserved more.

  • The Color Purple

    I have always wanted my own copy of the Color Purple, being that it's my favorite story of the love of two sisters, and I always missed not being able to see it when I wanted to, so now I can and the picture is so clear which makes it so much more enjoyable! Thank You!

  • Everything is excellent including the actors, clothes, cars and locations.

    Story line is sad but true and has a happy ending. Some of the best acting I have ever seen and the homes, cars, clothes and locations were excellent for the time period.

  • Figured out you have to flip the DVD over

    When we first viewed the video, it stopped halfway. We were pretty upset. I read some reviews and figured out you have to turn the DVD over and play the flip side to watch the second half of the movie. It’s a great movie. Definitely worth watching.

  • Worth a Watch

    Never saw this movie from the very beginning, So I thought now I have the time why not order it. I enjoyed it. I thought the actors did a wonderful job as the characters in this movie. It was not hard to get drawn in to the movie and they showed a version of how things were in the days long ago, Which I pray will never happen again. So if you like movies that have history of America, as well as emotional struggles to right wrongs then this would be a good movie to watch.
