Purple Places (An Analysis of my Three Favorite Scenes from The Color Purple) Alice Walker once said :â€Å"Im poor, Im black, I may be ugly and cant cook, a voice say to everything listening. But Im here.† The film adaptation of Color Purple has a renown name for being one of the most thought provoking films of the twentieth century. Steven Spielberg, produce of The Color Purple, creates passionate and emotional scenes throughout his feature film. A favorite scene of mine from The Color Purple is when Celie first meets Mr.___’s father. In the film the audience comes to realize what Mr.___ had to grow up with. A person’s upbringing usually reflects a great deal of what the child portrays in his own life. From this scene one can†¦show more content†¦While the pair are caught up in the moment of the sweet sound, the audience begins to understand the depth of Shug and Celie’s relationship. Celie cares about Shug so much because she is the first person to show her love and care since she was taken away from her. Another emotional scene from The Color Purple is from the first few minutes of the film, where young Celie sees her baby in the general store in the arms of another woman. The thought of having a child taken away directly after birth is nothing short of heartbreaking. The fact that Celie is raped and had her baby taken with no choice in the matter is something I would not wish on my own worst enemy. The emotional trauma from such an event would leave lasting psychological scars on even the strongest of people. When the fourteen year old Celie walks up to what she believes is her baby, the world stops turning for a moment. She knows she cannot let the woman know that she gave birth to the child in her arms. You’d have to have a heart of ice not to feel sympathy for the girl being unable to claim her own flesh and blood, and to continue pretending that it doesnt hurt her. Steven Spielberg, produce of The Color Purple, creates passionate and emotional scenes throughout his feature film. A favorite scene of mine from The Color Purple is when Celie first meets Mr.___’s father.
