An epic tale spanning forty years in the life of Celie, an African-American woman living in the South who survives incredible abuse and bigotry. After Celie's abusive father marries her off to the equally debasing 'Mister' Albert Johnson, things go from bad to worse, leaving Celie to find companionship anywhere she can. She perseveres, holding on to her dream of one day being reunited with her sister in Africa. false 2024-04-30 06:15:01 The Color Purple Steven Spielberg Alice Walker Menno Meyjes Quincy Jones Rod Temperton Lionel Richie Alice Walker Menno Meyjes Quincy Jones Rod Temperton Lionel Richie plugin://plugin.video.youtube/?action=play_video&videoid=_h-efLS7VV4 plugin://plugin.video.youtube/?action=play_video&videoid=QvpgNiU018s 7.751 1985 GB-15 tt0088939 873 1985-12-18 1985-12-18 73 154 It's about life.
