One of my all time favorite movies. The tragedy is also that with Netty and Celie owning that farm after their mom died, Celie never had to be with Mr. in the first place. They could’ve legally kicked their “dad” to the curb.
This movie was released a year before I was born BUT this movie was a staple at all of my family members' home. I ALWAYS cry when Shug returns to church, and sings from her soul!
You know what's crazy...they might keep it up after months then block it without even telling me.. I had to go through my older videos and discover the block by accident...I was pissed...people are still gonna watch these movies ya know. They need to really change stuff with these blocks
I saw your original reaction to this before it was taken down. Was happy to watch it again because I remembered how compelling YOUR reaction was. Thank you for being committed to keeping this reaction alive. I wish more people reacted to it. I still believe the "Maybe God is Tryin' to Tell You Somethin'" scene when Shug reconciles with her father is one of the greatest moments in cinematic history. Remember when Celie was combing Shug's hair in the bathtub shortly after Shug arrived the first time? Shug talks about how her father loves her--he just doesn't know it. During that song, he remembers. It's beautiful.
I saw this movie on opening day, with my family. And I have to say that we all were happy that Celie found a modicum of happiness and acceptance (and pleasure) with Shug. It opened her eyes to a sliver of a chance of another life.
I loved this reaction from you. Especially the happy tears at the end. As a DV/SV Survivor myself I send big MamaKat hugs to you for being a gentleman ❤
I can't even imagine what was going on in Netties head. She looked too shocked for words. How do you even react seeing kids you never met grown now.... 😢
Written by Alice Walker, this was required reading when I went to school. We learned all about the various black authors and reading their books was a must. I think Spielberg did a good job bring it to film. But the book was a rough read. Sadly girls were married off young and some black men, not all were marred mentally. This is just a sample of some men, but not all. But women and blacks in general life was hard, but still rise like a Phoenix despite oppression.
I turned 14 in October of 1985, I had already seen the first 5 Friday the 13th movies by the time you were born, now I officially feel old, still love your channel bro.
I enjoyed your reaction to this movie. It was hard seeing Danny Glover as a bad guy. If you want to react to another movie where he plays a bad guy, Check out the movie "Witness" It also stars Harrison Ford.
I cry everytime I watch this show. But hear me out guys.... unfortunately Mister was a product of a nasty, ugly cycle that his dad created. A family dynamic that he tried to pass on to Harpo as well. It was all around sad. Mister was a horrible person but he did right in the end. The crazy part is I cry harder for him in the end....because he did good and possible broke the cycle and no one knew, but Shug. It gets me every time that he could push pass everything to do the right thing.
it so sad. being from and living in georgia, you know the stories. black men were made to keep their women in check back in slavery days because the Men would sometimes get beat in their place. It is generational and a whole Lot of black families Still suffer from this passed down trauma
Please react to Claudine! I think it was 1974, starring James Earl Jones and Diahann Carroll, as well as others I'm sure you'll recognize. A single mother in New York on welfare, going through the trials n tribulations of being a maid and trying to make a relationship work, while raising her young teens and adolescent children. One of the baddest soundtracks in cinema in my opinion. It's funny, heartwarming, and slick, all rolled in one. Check it out.😊
Hooo yeah !!! Nice vídeo REACTION!!!! I recomend you to watch and react THE BEAR 1988 ( this movie IS AMAZING you will enjoey it ) at the end explain why the movie was done REGARDS!!!
