Ok so my next movie is The Color Purple....Steven Spielberg....1985....one of the few that goes in with a leading number of Oscar noms and leaves with zip....good?

Oh. The Color Purple. Another tear jerker. Oprah Winfrey, Danny Glover, Adolph Caesar, Margaret Avery, Rae Dawn Chong and Whoopi Goldberg were ALL wonderful in it!
But, seriously this time Chris, have your tissues ready.... for real! :'(
It is an absolutely beautiful movie... inspiring, sad, tragic, and full of love and hope. It is a movie that encompasses all the human emotions and it is all neatly packaged into a beautiful, heart crushing 2 1/2 hour movie.
Just prepare to cry a lot! :)

Excellent movie, I re-watched it not that long ago. I suggest you read the book, too. The book is all letters. It is interesting to see how they adapted it to film.

You're welcome Chris.
By the way, if you want to see "Ghost", they are showing it today (Saturday July 8th) on CMT at 5 pm Eastern/4 pm Central. :)

Cool thanks everyone....
Next: The English Patient....is it as boring as people say it is...
littleguitar:
I've never seen it Chris, but every time I think of renting it, I think of a particular Seinfeld episode then put it right back on the shelf... ;)
