The Color Purple (2023) | Sister Song | Warner Bros. Entertainment

Torn apart from her sister Nettie (Halle Bailey) and her children, Celie (Fantasia Barrino in her major motion picture debut, reprising her 2005 role from Broadway) faces many hardships in her life, including an abusive husband simply called Mister (Colman Domingo). With the support of sultry singer Shug Avery (Taraji P. Henson) and stand-her-ground stepdaughter Sofia (Danielle Brooks, Tony-nominated for the role on Broadway), Celie ultimately finds extraordinary strength in the unbreakable bonds of a new kind of sisterhood.

I loooove that they brought this back (it was not in the Bway show) AND re-contextualized it so it makes more sense that Shug would sing this AFTER knowing Celie for a longer time than in the original film where they kinda just met.

Taraji is EVERYTHING in this film.

So nostalgic! Its like watching the original but different
I was never able to go to Broadway to watch the musical, now I can watch it from home.

This is aight. It don't hit like the one in the 80's though.

[sarashaffer]

I was so hoping they'd have this song in the new version! I would have been so disappointed if they didn't. 😊

They really made history with this one I've never seen 2 BLACK women all on each other like this esp with one of the actors being from a Christian background I REALLY WISH Y'ALL KNEW THE IMPACT YOU 2 HAVE MADE ON OUR COMMUNITY

Sug has her ol lady & her ol man under the same roof ?🤔🤔🤔

[cesarabelgomezgonzalez]

Es tan maravilloso como ver la versión original: sigo emocionábdome en una Margaret Avery que brinda su amor a una criatura no desarrollada es un parámetro de la vida en el contexto de los Estados Unidos primitivos, , (imagen común (, que no pretende una diferencia de lo que se espera

[RonChase]

They did not hit the mark with this one 😢
