"Ms. Celie's Blues" (Sister) The Color Purple

Have you ever seen the movie "The Color Purple"?  Well, i have.  Many, many, many times.  It's not what one would call a feel good move, although, it does have a happy ending.  It's harsh.  It's raw.  And it's very real.  It was based on the award winning book of the same name, by the amazing Alice Walker.  The 1st chapter in the book itself starts the reader off on a whirlwind of emotions and then continues to be a page turner.  This movie, for me is one i like to just sit and watch maybe 2 or 3 times a year.  It touches me on such a deep level.  I feel like, in way, i was there.  There is something that tells me that perhaps, a in another lifetime, i was.  In this scene, Suge Avery, a sexy lounge singer, solidifies her undying friendship with the main character, Celie, by singing her this song.  (Suge is the long time over of Celie's abusive husband)
Enjoy!
