I thought the movie itself was rather good. It had it's own good and bad points. Up until About when Sofia left Harpo, they were almost identical. After that they are almost two Different stories with the same ending. The movie was written purely for entertainment. It added a small number of scenes, but Cut more than it added.

In the movie, the Section on Africa was only ten, fifteen minutes long, and the rest was based more on the Rest of Celie's life.

Dune), but this particular movie probably would have been better, At least in my own opinion
