Whoopi! Oprah! Spielberg! None of them are here, but Brian and Christina have re-watched the multi-Oscar-nominated saga of sisters Celie and Nettie. Back in 1985, The Color Purple an opportunity for its director and stars to break out. Audiences went in droves. Could Whoopi do drama? Could Oprah act? Can Steven Spielberg make a movie without special effects? The answers were resounding yeses. But how about now? Is the domestic abuse and mistreatment of Celie too much in a post-Lifetime TV Movie world? Was it robbed of all 11 of its nominations? The Old Roommates take a shallow dive into Mister’s mailbox of memories. Listen to this.
