Based on Alice Walker’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, "The Color Purple" is a
richly-textured, powerful film set in America’s rural south. Whoopi Goldberg,
winner of the Best Actress Golden Globe Award and an Oscar nomination, makes a
triumphant screen debut as the radiant, indomitable Celie, the story’s central
character.
Her impressive portrayal is complimented by a distinguished cast that
includes Danny Glover, Oprah Winfrey, Margaret Avery, Adolph Caesar, Rae Dawn
Chong and Akosua Busia. "The Color Purple" marks a new, more mature color in
Spielberg’s artistic palette.
It is an exquisitely crafted, landmark film that
will be treasured and talked about for years to come.
