sooo this was a decent adaptation, not spectacular. was able to enjoy it for the performances, obviously goldberg and winfrey were standouts. I just feel like celie’s story deserves a better film, as does the bond between celie and nettie. I definitely favor the novel.

a colorful, quirky, satirical story that makes you think deeply about marxist philosophy just as much as it makes you laugh. my only issues; I wish it had more character depth, and I wasn’t really vibing with the third act as much as I was with the first two.

comfort show turned into a movie but it came back ten times more depressing, and somehow, I don’t mind

I felt everything.
the last scene.
this film said gay rights in the voices of Rachel Weisz and Olivia Colman.
