Colour it fuller, colour it richer, colour it even more of an enthralling movie experience: The Color Purple shines anew in this expansive, deluxe 2-disc edition DVD.Celie. "Mr." Sofia. Nettie. Shug. The unforgettable characters of Alice Walker's Pulitzer Prize novel brighten the screen in this rhapsodically cinematic adaptation directed by Steven Spielberg. At the centre of the tale is Celie (Whoopi Goldberg in her movie debut), whose search for fulfilment in a world closed to her becomes a triumph of cruelty overcome by love, of pain eclipsed by joy. Acting and filmmaking honours all came to The Color Purple. But today as yesterday, its greatest honour is the embrace of movie fans everywhere.
