Review of The Color Purple (1985) by Tanner B — 07 Mar 2015
-IGNORE THIS "OUT OF FIVE" RATING.
3/4.
Exceptionally acted and photographed film, based on Alice Walker book, about the life of a young African American woman living in the early 1900s. Great moments of beauty, and spectacle, are plenty, but film is seriously weakened by its overlength and direction flaws. Still a fascinating journey that made Goldberg an international superstar, and left an impact on the art of cinema. Allen Daviau's cinematography is outstanding.
