THE COLOR PURPLE MOVIE REACTION | 0:00 - 31:27
THE COLOR PURPLE MOVIE REVIEW | 31:28 - 35:58
The Color Purple Movie Description:
An epic tale spanning forty years in the life of Celie (Whoopi Goldberg), 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 (Danny Glover), 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. Based on the novel by Alice Walker.
The Color Purple is a 1985 American coming-of-age period drama film directed by Steven Spielberg with a screenplay by Menno Meyjes, based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning 1982 novel of the same name by Alice Walker. It was Spielberg's eighth film as a director, and marked a turning point in his career as it was a departure from the summer blockbusters for which he had become known. It was also the first feature film directed by Spielberg for which John Williams did not compose the music. The film stars Danny Glover, Whoopi Goldberg, Desreta Jackson, Margaret Avery, Oprah Winfrey, Rae Dawn Chong, Willard Pugh, and Adolph Caesar in one of his final film roles.
Filmed in Anson and Union counties in North Carolina, the film tells the story of a young African-American girl named Celie Harris and shows the problems African-American women faced during the early 20th century, including domestic violence, incest, pedophilia, poverty, racism, and sexism. Celie is transformed as she finds her self-worth through the help of two strong female companions.
The film was a box office success, grossing $142 million against a budget of $15 million. The film received positive reviews from critics, receiving praise for its acting, direction, screenplay, musical score, and production values; but it was also criticized by some critics for being "over-sentimental" and "stereotypical". The film was nominated for eleven Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actress for Goldberg, Best Supporting Actress for both Avery and Winfrey, and Best Adapted Screenplay, without winning any; it also received four Golden Globe Award nominations, with Whoopi Goldberg winning Best Actress in a Drama. Steven Spielberg did not receive an Academy Award nomination for his directing, but did receive a Directors Guild of America Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement, and a Golden Globe nomination. The film was later included in Roger Ebert's book series The Great Movies.

This Movie Brought Out All The Emotions From Me! Please Share And Like!
@@DAMIENDMILLS The Soundtrack In This Movie Is Breathtaking
My girlfriend said she was mad at Danny Glover for a very long time after watching this movie😆
@@HelloMellowXVI Scored by the legendary QUINCY JONES. Growing up in the church (family from MS too), the scene where she gets accepted by her father again was always moving for me. I'm over here boo-hooing with you and I've seen this movie hundreds of times. As a tween, I read this book after I saw the movie and it brought a whole other nuance to the story. Great reaction!! It's so admirable you feel comfortable enough to cry while on camera, that's a true display of masculinity.....HUGS!!
Wow Thank You So Much For This Comment
I cry every time I've watched it. The book is amazing too. Even the clips got me.
This movie was nominated for 13 Oscars. It won ZERO. It is one of the greatest movies ever made. It brings out ALL the emotions. Great review.
Tragic! It's so good
AMEN to All that!
we know why it didn't win ...
@@razycrandomgirl yes . . we do.
And only people in Hollywood vote for the Oscars
So the story is that Steven didn’t think he could make an authentic movie surrounding a black story and Quincy Jones asked “Have you ever met an alien?.. No?...but you made E.T.” And that convinced him.
Great movie and awesome reaction!
That's sad and hilarious
Yeah I remember that. I’m glad he went for it!
And they said racism is not a problem here in the U. S. White people think that everything is black or white when it's just the experiences and perceptions that's different. It's just like Richard Pryor once said that there's no such thing as black comedy when he was asked in an interview. Paul Mooney has said the same thing. Funny is funny, music is music and so forth. It's just the experiences and perceptions. Ijs
It is a valid concern to have. However, all you've got to do is follow the source material, Alice Walker put it all there for you. He didn't really change very much from the book.
Thank you for sharing that. I did see a video where Steven Spilberg said he always felt the movie would have even better with a black director. I strongly disagree. The way he directed the film I know in my heart this is the best direction I have EVER seen in my life.
Soon as you said "I hope she gets to see all (3) of them together" I was like "Just hold onnnnnnnnn brotha!" 😭😭😭💕
SAME lmaoo 😂😂. After the first time he broke and was like he didn't know how he was gonna be by the end , I was like " ooooh baby.. come on and sit down and let us all hold you" lol.
This has to be one of the most genuine reactions I’ve ever seen and I don’t know why more people don’t react to this phenomenal film. I saw it the first time as a child in the early 90’s and it’s stayed with me ever since. Beautiful!
YEEESSSS! Everything you said lol..He really had me feeling like I was watching it for the first time.
I felt like it was fake and he didn’t get a lot of the concepts.. kind of irritated me
@@cybil66you have to be kidding!!! 😂
@@cybil66if anything, that proves it’s a first reaction. You sometimes have to watch a movie a few times to get everything.
"I look like an f'in mess". No, dude, you look beautiful. Your tears are just liquid diamonds on your cheeks.
😂
This 💜
When I watch this reaction I was touched since your tears slowly shatter because of Danny Glover's role treating young nettie and Celie like that
Liquid diamonds is great
The most beautiful and sympathetic words you can ever say.
You gotta a big heart bro. It shows. Much respect.
The Color Purple didn’t need an Oscar, it will always go down in history as one of the greatest movies of all time without one..💜💜💜
👏👏👏👏👏👏
This movie hurts in the best and worst ways. I saw this movie as a kid. Mother gave me context when necessary. Spielberg knows how to get you in the deepest parts of your heart. Watching it now that I’m older, it’s so much more impactful understanding all the pain and trauma of the characters, mainly Celie and Sophia. Just a brilliant film based on an amazing novel.
Me, sobbing hysterically with you even though I've seen it a million times. Love this movie so much. They were robbed of their Oscars. It's actually a damned shame how they were overlooked.
You know wassup with that
100% agree!
Oprah had never acted before this role!
The oscars are overrated anyway
@@ACinemafanatic this is the take. the oscars are BS I've never even see out of Africa
The Academy NEVER knew what quality means. Seriously, they never did and still don't do. Sometimes a film is lucky and actually gets them when they are well deserved.
Mad respect for uploading your reaction with all of the crying included. There's no shame in being touched by such an emotional story.
I was 16 yrs old when I saw 'The Color Purple' in a Pomona, Ca movie theater in 1985. The theater was packed and I was the only Caucasian individual in the room. This is my all time favorite film 🎥
Because to me, TCP is about love, lost, redemption, salvation, forgiveness and every emotion that a human being can have and feel...💜
Hey! From Pomona. Had to say hi 👋🏽
🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
i always thought Spielberg did an ASTONISHING job of putting Harpo's breaking of generational curses (not turning out like his father), while punctuating it with his FATHER not turning out exactly like HIS father. brilliant!
Thank you
I was age 7 in 85 and saw it at the movies as well with my entire family. Cried like I was 50 😭😭😭😭😭
The way Spielberg wove the scenes and sounds of Celie's environment together with her visualization of Africa from her sister's letters when reading them was purely directoral GENIUS!!! Then the shaving scene tied with the tribal ritual...INSANELY BRILLIANT AND CAPTIVATING directing. And that cinematography of her throwing the gold-wrapped chocolates from the train. Steven is a GOAT
Fun facts if no one has posted them yet:
1. The Actress that plays Nettie is Akosua Gyamama Busia and she is a real life Ghanaian Princess
2. Whoopi Goldberg’s real life daughter is one of the kids at the table when Celie finally stands up for herself
She is in sister act also
Cool facts!
The actress who portrayed Nettie also is the former spouse of John Singleton
She is in sister act 2 also
And don't forget Rae Dawn Chong
I watched this as a teen. It made me sob because I knew someone like Celie.
This kind of stuff really happened and still happens. My mother's best friend was *given* to her husband at 14. Meaning her no good parents gave permission for him to marry her for some kind of compensation.
This happened in the south too. The dude was like 40 or something.
She hated him. Had 3 kids by him and when she became an adult my parents let her and her kids stay with us in the city. I hated it at the time because they were invading our space and we had to make room, but that's because I didn't understand she was trying to get away from him. He came and tried to get them. He was mean just like Danny Glover.
She told him she could either go home and murder him or he could let her go. It was traumatic for me, so I cant imagine her and those kids.
My father told him to get off our property and dont come back. She is free now, but he didnt give them anything to survive on. She started from scratch and got her own. She is a strong woman. I really admire her.
Georgia girl here. My grandmother was basically given to my grandfather as well, just because he was the wealthiest black man in the community at the time. My grandmother had already started a relationship with another man but her family sent her to live with my grandfather anyway. He was much older, known to be a philanderer and was even accused of rape and murder before, and he was physically and sexually abusive to not only my grandmother but my aunts as well - their own children. One of my aunts had a child by him. My mother was spared form his abuse because her older sisters protected her as the youngest of the family. My grandfather also beat and nearly murdered my uncle as a teenager with a knife. My grandmother outlived that demon thankfully but she also had a history of abusing alcohol to cope with him, and eventually this caught up with her. She died way too soon.
These legacies of trauma run deep in the black community - the legacy of debasement born from slavery. It's a deep wound that we're still trying to heal.
The Color Purple was filmed in my hometown of Marshville, North Carolina. It was the summer of 1985 and I was 13. I would ride my bike uptown to watch them film the town scenes. They brought in tons of red dirt to cover the paved street, decorated the buildings to match the Era and even turned a light pole into what looked like a real tree. It was also very hot when they filmed. 95 plus degrees not counting the humidity. During that heat they actually made it look like the middle of winter. It looked like real ice and snow. I was lucky enough to see, Oprah, Whoopi, Glover, Fishburne and Spielberg wearing his big directors hat to keep the sun off oh him. Never forget that summer.
Excellent 💖
It doesn't matter now many times you watch it, you still shed tears at those hard, emotional parts. This movie came out in 1985. Whoopie had blown up as an actor. everyone knew who she was. I ran into her in Tijuana out on the street and she was surrounded by so many people. I asked her what she was doing out there and she said, "Oh, just spending the day, doing a little shopping and sightseeing." I was there for the same.
The way they handled the lighting throughout the whole movie deserves an award, I mean every shade of black skin in this movie, and they nailed it, they made us really see them in a way I don't think they had much experience in back then. That's just the tip of the iceberg of accolades this movie deserved.
Dude you got me crying and I've seen this movie at least 20 times
Same omg( sniff) seriously
Only real men cry
Facts! Even scenes I never ever shed a tear for.
wowww only 20 times😳🤣
Same...seen it many times and you had me crying brand new with you!My mom introduced me to this movie when I was young and it remains one of my favorite films to this day!
I love a man that can show his emotions😍😍😍
I’m a Hispanic 40 year old , I was born in
1982, I got abused as a kid and was living from home to home.. one of those times I got adopted for a young family and they had this vhs back then and they had this movie and watched and watched so many times and it touched my heart, funny thing I didn’t understand English but something about this story that made me think of me , I found the book and I stole it from the library to allow
Myself to understand better .. I didn’t mean to steal it thought I was a poor kid and I couldn’t afford it .. but your reaction of yours touched my soul … I was afraid to show emotions but now I don’t care ..
This is the first time I saw someone react to The Color Purple. Don't know why it popped up on my YT feed, but I am glad it did. You have a new subscriber!
Thank you so much
Same...this was really special. New subscriber too
Same here
Same here!
Same here
I LITERALLY just started being ok with Danny Glover in the last few years, cause Mister took me all thy way down through it 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
My mom was the same way. She slowly started to change her mind after Angels in the outfield. 😀
I have a friend since this movie hated him for years. loool.
Girl right same here. He's a hell of an actor man cause baby him & Charles from diary of a mad black woman left me with rage honey.
My mother still hates him behind this movie to this day
I started to really dislike p Diddy and have suspicions about him after a raisin in the sun. Watch that next mellverse.
That was one of the most heartfelt reactions I've ever seen!
I was bawling along with you!
And I've watch probably 25 times over the years from when first released.
My favorite movie!
Thanks for keeping it real, and holding back bro!
Maaaaaaaan...35 years later and I am *still* furious with the stodgy @ss Academy for completely snubbing this magnificent film. Eleven nominations, zero wins. Absolutely unforgivable. I fell in love with this movie the first time I saw it at 14 years old and I still watch it about once a year. I never, ever grow tired of bored of it. Bro, I love how deeply this movie affected you and I felt every one of your emotions. I've lost count of how many times I have seen The Color Purple, but it still hits me deep in the feels every time. Every. Single. Time.
It was based on the book of the same name, by Alice Walker. It won the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award. I think you can see why.
The movie is fantastic, but I do recommend reading the book because it does fill in some blank spots in the film, like how it was known that Olivia & Adam were adopted by thw minister and how Squeak came into the picture.
Also warning to anyone reading that book for the first time, it is absolutely heart wrenching. The film has ugliness but the book is worse. Beautiful written but really hard to get through.
I'm ova here crying with you and my daughter looking at me like I'm crazy but I don't care, this movie is 1 of the GOATS😊
Well I'm Happy We Can Connect With This Film
@@HelloMellowXVI I saw this movie when it first came out and it made me want to be a better person in life and it said to me love conquers hate😊
Same 😭
Same except it was my fur babies. My pup was concerned. Lol
Edit: typo
First saw it at age 12 on tv at 11pm and sat through the whole thing through 5am glued to the screen and sobbing and felt more emotion and spirituality in that one movie than I ever did at my own church.
Nephew "the color purple" 💜 is a right of passage (in the black community). You are NOW official. So many iconic quotes from this movie. Like "beat em", "you sho is ugly", all my life iz had to fight", "until you do me right" etc etc. Auntie loved your reaction
🤎🤎🤎🖤🖤🖤
You said it.
"man of you don't get out my ear lil boy" 😄
😂😂😂
The redemption of Shug, the reunification of woman, children and her sister and the liberation of Celie were the most powerful moments in any film.
Dude went through the 7 stages of grief damn almost made me cry
This reaction is why TH-cam can be a great place.
I just watched this movie for the first time and I am UGLY crying. Started when Shug was finally embraced by her father and just continued to cry even harder until the end of the movie. God. What an amazing movie. I can't believe how it didn't win a single Academy Award.
I was put up for adoption as an infant, and when I finally found my birthmom, I was 31 years old, we discovered we both thought that this was the greatest movie ever, and we both had watched the last scene over and over again.
Loved your reaction……honest, heartfelt, humorous, and humbling. Real men cry! Truly my favorite movie. It is stunning in absolutely every way. Welcome to the club! Cheers!!
The best movie ever 😭. I still watch it to this day and still brings tears to my eyes my favorite line “you took my sister nettie away from me, you knew she was the only somebody in the world who loved me” glad u enjoyed it , seeing you cry made me cry 😢
The bit when Shug's father finally embraces her-- if you're not crying it's cuz you're dead or have no soul.
"See daddy - sinners have souls, too." 😭
I cry at the part where he's riding his horse carriage passed their house and she runs out to the yard to call out to him and say that she got married to Grady, implying that she's an 'honorable woman' now, but he still rides right past her and the look of total heartbreak in our eyes when he ignores her gets me everytime
@@gracehaven5459 That actress was able to communicate soooo much with just her eyes. It was indeed heartbreaking.
God is trying to tell you something!!!
No such thing as a soul. Her father allowed a religion to separate himself from his child. He doesn't deserve her.
When Oprah yells, "God, help me!" it gives me chills every time. It's so horrifying and her acting there is absolutely outstanding omfg
I have seen this movie many times, and I have never been able to stop crying when I saw it. A masterpiece of cinema and literature.
Allowing yourself to experience your true emotions while watching this was enough to convince me that I need to subscribe. I didn't think I could love this movie any more than I already do but I now know that I can and I do.
same here
The sisters separated is one of the most heartbreaking moments I’ve ever experienced watching. This movie is the best. ❤️
I appreciate the fact that you allowed us to see your emotions .... definitely subscribing !
It felt like I watched it with one of my sons and yes I subscribed too.
Same
Yep. Emotion is a wonderful thing.
I don't think anybody can't help cry watching this movie
HAH GAY!!!! 😂
You had he most genuine review I have ever seen....had me crying and I've seen this movie over 100 times lol. Definitely subbing.
One of the greatest movies ever made!!!! Hollywood didn't want to give Steven or the cast the acknowledgement because of racism, yes I said it... I'm so glad you young people and other people are seeing this movie, it brings out every emotions a person feels.
Don’t forget this was co-produced & composed by the legendary, Quincy Jones! 🎷
And that dude has one of the smoothest voice to listen to. I swear, he could read a phone book and i'd listen to him for hours. The interviews with him are a joy to watch.
Yea.. I said the same thing... I saw this reaction video come up and all I could think was "oh lawd.. Poor baby... Get ready!!"
That movie always make me cry. In the book, Mister tries to get back with with Celie. He even sits on the porch and knits with her. I think that was because after his father died,which he does in the book, Mister is free to express a softer side of himself. Also Celie was in love with Shug.
I saw The Color Purple at the theater in 1985. People wrapped around the building waiting to get in to see this movie. I knew it was going to be good because Spielberg also made Poltergeist and ET 3 years earlier. In the book all three Ceilie Shug and Mister ended up living together at the end
I think Ima read the book one day just to see how different it is from the movie
They could not show that she was a lesbian back in 84
You got me over her SOBBING!!!! And I’ve seen this movie a hundred times!!! 😂
Bro I'm 38 year old man and I have seen this film more than a 100 times and I have cried every time. Matter of fact Im typing this after seeing mister break up the sisters with tears rolling. If that scene don't move you love hasn't touch your soul yet. One of the most touching film I've ever seen
I was working as an usher at a movie theater when this came out. I had the timing down so that I did a theater check every time the dinner scene played. One of my favorite scenes in movie history.
Great story.
I was a projectionist at the time. I did the same thing watching the dinner scene. I also avoided certain scenes because I would start to get the feels big time!
I think this movie came out the year I was born, but I use to love talking like the father at the dinner table his was so funny.
what was the audience reaction to the film at the time?
@@user-td6fq7or8d The dinner scene people would laugh. The happy scene at the end men and women were crying.
I always cry from the time Shug opened those church doors like singing "God's Tryna Tell you Something" until the end of the movie.
I cried
When this movie first came on
She had two kids by her Father
He got me over here crying, too. Not the "ugly cry", but I'm tearing up, though.
I wanna thank you for pure emotions in your videos. All day laughing and crying with your reactions... Really like that) ☺️🙌🏻
I have literally never wanted to jump through the screen and hug someone so badly before in my life. Aww, bubbas!! Lol you’re adorable. Uhh... subscribed. I need a palate cleanser, Goodfellas reaction it is :P
I remember when I saw this movie in ethics class, in high school. The whole damn class crying, even the bullies. At that moment, the teacher stopped the movie and said "Wow, deep down you have a little heart!"
Even Mister had a little heart, in the end.
Don't be ashamed of your tears, they come from a place of compassion and that it beautiful. One of the best films ever, I started tearing up as soon as I hit play on this video... thank you so much for reacting to this! 💜
In the book. Shug never slept with Mr. again after learning he beats Celie. Great reaction!! ❤️😩🥺🥲
I saw this movie twice upon its release here in Australia in 1985. I was fifteen years old. I remember being in fits of tears when I was walking out the first time. A couple of ushers came up to me to ask if I was okay. It just REALLY struck a chord with me and moved me beyond words. To this day, I cannot hear Quincy Jones' INCREDIBLE music without having a visceral, emotional reaction.
I was 15 when The Color Purple hit theaters. Though I'm white. I cried. How could people treat others like that?
"She really moved back in with this dude?" Huh? That was the house her "father" left her.
Yeah........ he made a mistake with that comment. I think he missed that point (it being her "Dad's" house)..... left to her when his sorry ass died!!!
Not her "father", her real dad. He owned the house and the store that the "father" took over but never actually was entitled to.
Yeah but I get why they get confusing because they’re all the same plantation style homes with wrap around porches
That house was left 2 celie and nettie when thier mom died "paw" was just there
Never apologize for you tears. A man showing his heart publicly is powerful. Thank you for not hiding your feelings.
One of the saddest gd movies ever made. Everyone is such an amazing actor but Whoopi really kills it,as does the little girl who also plays Celi. I love this movie.
Edit: oh my god mel crying, I'm crying, we're all crying 😭
Over 30 years later, that ending gets me. I tear up every damn time.
Man...your reaction to this movie was EVERYTHING! From the disgust of her pops and Mister, to the tears shead and all the way to the praise break on God's Tryna Tell You Somethin...SUBSCRIBED. Thank you for this. My all time favorite.
When you started dancing for the church scene that took me OUT 😂😂😂😂😂💀💀💀💀💀
Me to👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
YOU HAVE THE BEST REACTION!!
I’d cried with you throughout the whole movie. I love this movie so much
FINALLY SOMEONE DID A REACTION TO THIS MOVIE!!! Thank you.
It's such a heartbreaking and beautiful movie. I SOB every time I watch it. It just punches you right in the gut.
Same! Then I read the book and sobbed some more.
Takes a real man to acknowledge his emotions and have empathy bro, I’ve seen this movie so many times and not only well up every time but during this video lol! 👊🏾
This is one of those movies everyone should watch at least once in their life.
This movie was a gem. Worthy of all the praise it got.
Easily the most underrated Spielberg film. This one deserves to be ranked along side films like Shawshank redemption
I always sob at the sisters scene and Shug going in the church. I’m still angry it didn’t win best picture. It’s the GOAT
I did not think I’d cry again watching you watch this movie. By the end I couldn’t stop the liquids coming out of my face/nose. 😭 God bless man! I’m very happy to experience this with you!
STOP YOU ARE MAKING ME CRY TOO!! Thank you for sharing your reaction with us! I feel like I have always known this movie and seen it so often but seeing you experience it for the first time was like experiencing it for the first time myself!
This movie had a profound effect on my life as a teenager. Idk what I would do if I saw it much later in life. Once again, a ballsy reaction from you! From my perspective, this movie made our whole nation shed a tear. It helped us all grow just that little bit. It broke a lot of ground. Oprah and Whoopi had insane love and admiration everywhere they went back then, and it's stuck with them and still is. I remember it well. It was one of the few films that made me realize just how powerful a film could actually be.
Margaret Avery's (Shug) singing was done by Tata Vega, although Margaret was also a singer in real life. Interestingly, she was also a member of the Freedom Riders. I've been in love with Shug since I was about 12 and saw this movie for the first time. It still makes me cry every time I watch it. Thank you for this beautiful reaction.
Tata Vega's voice was just sublime for this film. I became a huge fan of hers after watching that film.
Seeing a strong man cry does something to my heart. This is my favorite movie of all time and the Church singing still gives me chills.
I love your review. As a dark skin women who had a lot of hate directed my way. Her laughing and putting her hands over her mouth, hits EVERYTIME.
I'm commenting again. I looked to find reactions to this movie and nothing compares to yours because you reacted to the entire movie from start to finish. You put emphasis on so many pivitol and emotional scenes. And you wore your heart on your sleeve and reacted with honesty and rawness and this is why I watch reaction channels, for reactions like yours.
I would've been surprised if you didn't cry during this movie. It's one of the most heart breaking movies I've ever seen. It's 36 years old and still gets to me every single time I watch it.
I've loved this movie my whole life. I always loved Celie's character.. even though I've never known the type of experiences she's had.. the way she had faith and saw all her prayers answered is so inspiring.
One of the most powerful scenes 30 minutes in and you called it saying you'd be sobbing by the end... we all were sobbing with you at the end. This is a very powerful movie, and anyone who dislikes it has no heart.
And in the end Celie and nettie are wearing The Color Purple truly a triumphant film that will never get old
I can't even count all the times I've seen this movie and I am still on the floor sobbing every single time. It was CRIMINALLY underrated at the time and to this day it breaks me every time. Such a beautiful, beautiful film.
6:48 "He look like a comic book villain or something". ROTFLMBO!!! :D
12:06 “Girl, you better *BASH* Mister’s head open & think about Heaven later.” 💯🤣💜 One of the best movies ever!!!
Man bro, I haven't cried to this movie in years, and you got me over here crying!! Love seeing the emotion my dude and yeah this is one of my fav movies of all time! Had to have seen it over 40 times! great upload man, heres a like lol
Loving this channel, can't wait for the next one.
This movie is definitely in my top 3. Its impossible not to cry. This movie came out when I was born and I've been watching it since I was 7. This movie is one of the goat.
I saw this movie when it came out originally in the theaters. I was about 17 years old at the time. I was blown away by the whole experience, never having cried so hard in the movie before. I recall being genuinely excited to watch the Oscars for the first time and really pay attention. You cannot imagine how much screaming I did at the television when it didn’t win a single award! What a travesty!
Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I’m so glad you had a chance to experience this one.
And on a somewhat lighthearted note, this lapsed Catholic might still go to church today, if it was more like when Shug burst through the doors singing 😂
I know this reaction is 2 years old but I happened upon it. I have watched approximately 10-15 reactions to the Color Purple. Yours is my absolute favorite. It has been in my top 5 movies since it came out. I ugly cry every single time and I completely appreciate your kind soul and how moved you were by it. And, you are the only one who even mentioned Oprah. Outstanding reaction!
Oh man, I'm watching with you and crying too. I come back to this film from time-to-time, but it's never easy to watch. I have tissues on standby.
The sadness beauty horror and humor in this movie is director Stephen Spielberg at the peak of his powers.
I love how you're not afraid to show you're emotions 🖤. When u said I'll be sobbing at the end........ Also the film was nominated for 11 Oscars and won none. Steven Spielberg wasn't nominated at all.
I saw the Color Purple for the first time at age 12 when in came out in theaters. I’m 47 years old and it’s still my favorite movie.
I first saw this with my mom when I was 11 years old and it made a big impression. I'm 45 now and I still cry everytime I watch it.
Lmao I Was Crying While I Was Editing The Video Every Time
@@HelloMellowXVI Shit, man... no lie, I cried watching your reaction just now. Lol It's a beautiful story, written, shot, and portrayed beautifully. Respect. ✌
That’s exactly what we went thru in Chicago many years ago. That night coming out of the movie theater, a line of people waiting around the block to get in. All of us crying our eyes out...people looking at us knowing they were in for an emotional night...
WOW!!!! Your reaction to The Color Purple was like I saw it for the first time too even though I saw it so many times! Your heartfelt emotions touched me and had me crying like a baby! I am a new subscriber and I will definitely be watching your reactions going forward. Also, has anyone ever told you that you look like Donnie Simpson? You might not know who that is, but it is definitely a compliment. 😉
It's been years since I saw this movie and have watch 3 or 4 other reactions and the reunion at the end gets me every time no matter how many times I see it. I am in tears and thinking back to when I met my biological mother, sister and baby brother for the first time. I was adopted at 11 months old and didn't meet them until I was 32 and my brother at 41. Now I'm 52 and the emotion from feeling the connection is priceless. I believe anyone would get emotional watching this movie, but I think those of us that were raised away from our biological families and finally met them have a different response emotionally from familiarity of those moments. If feels like coming home and being complete, knowing who you are and where you come from.
When you danced during the church scene! 🤣👍🏽 You can't help but feel the holy spirit in that scene!
My favorite movie of all time. I’m 44. Watched it when I was 9. Even at 9 years old, I knew this movie was something special and would forever touch my heart.
Loved your commentary and reaction. I saw this movie when it came out aged 10 visiting the States for the first time. I remember the purple flowers on the large screen and it was beautiful. This is still one of my favourite films of all time. Whoppi and Oprah weren't as big back then. There characters and storylines were memorable. Some of the subjects actually went over my head but I picked up on things as I got older. I also knew from a young age Never stay with someone like MR. ❤
awww man, I thought you were gonna stay all jokey jokey through this but when then scenes hi, it HIT YOU!!! Soo emotional I've seen this dozens of times but it still hits.
