The Color Purple Movie Notes

· Oprah is very emotional; plays role of Sophia very convincingly.

• Celie’s house is a lot bigger and cleaner that I thought I pictured it, based on the novel’s description.
• The storm comes and Mr. _____ brings Shug Avery that night.
• Celie seems to take pleasure in watching Mr. ______ fumble around the kitchen. It seems like she is slowly gaining power even the moment Shug arrives.
• Mr. ______ is a lot larger than his dad, yet he is still intimidated by him.
• His dad appears rich. Does he have a lot of money? Why does Mr. ______ have such a bad lot in life then?
• Mr. ______ really lights up when Shug sings. I almost feel sorry for him that she eventually rejects him.
• Whoopi portrays Celie as a very awkward and uncomfortable girl.
• I LOVE OPRAH!!!
