Black women's struggle for sovereignty.

1. Celie: It's hard for me to imagine what happened to this 14-year-old woman. She was raped by her father and gave birth to a son and a daughter. The boy's name was Adam, and the girl's name was Olivia. When she was born, she was taken away by her father and given to others, no matter what it was for. The wind and snow are blowing in! This is the delivery room! The father also asked impatiently, "Is it not over yet?" Is this what a father should say?

After the child was born, his father married him to Albert, a cruel, ruthless, and violent man. Rather than marrying a wife, he found himself a maid who had beaten Celie violently for many years. It's a prison in place. It's also a stark contrast to when Celie leaves at the end: I'm gone, oh my god!

Celie and Neti are sisters, and the time they spend with each other is happy and warm to each other, but Albert kicked him out of his home because he failed to rape Neti. Before Neti left, he shouted: "There is only death that can separate us!" " Celie's life changed when she met Xiuge, a prostitute, and finally got married." No matter what happened to Xiuge, she was strong, brave, and radiant. bright.

2. Neti: She is a person with knowledge and culture. She knows the vision and life brought by knowledge. She understands the importance of all this.

3. Xiuge: Be bold and be yourself. This is your own light.

    I thought it was a textbook on Spielberg's film language. [The story is really touching, and the shaving part is really exciting. 】

    I don't know if the handling of emotional details is too forceful, or the director's hope is so strong that I feel like it's too much.
