Beloved

An OK adaptation, but its themes are too literary to translate well to film.

Whew, ambitious. There isn't really anything like Beloved our there. Demme was not the obvious choice for Toni Morrison's tale of guilt, magical realism, and slavery. The performances are big and the narrative is far from linear. Demme's colors and characteristic eye line are there, but there is a bit of a mess to keep this from something great.

Em honra de Toni Morrison (1931 - 2019). Apesar da duração excessiva, não há motivo algum para esse filme ter sido um fracasso de bilheteria quando de fato ele é um bom filme, super bem ancorado por seus atores, em especial a Thandie Newton, cuja personagem certamente foi referência para US do Jordan Peele. DVDRip HANDJOB.

Good premise but the on-screen effort is weak.

No, I don't believe Danny Glover and Oprah Winfrey as dirt-poor sharecroppers at all. This movie was the beginning of the end for Jonathan Demme
