Heck yes to Ashleigh's talk about crying... there is no one correct way to react when something has moved you

This is one of the hardest movies I've ever watched. I can't claim to enjoy it, because I didn't (not in the way movies are meant to be enjoyed), but everyone should see this movie. I cried as much as I did during Schindler's List and Glory.

I know why you have to do it, but damn it's weird watching this without the music.

This was a pleasure to watch you watch!

I think Ashleigh has reached a watershed moment in her movie-watching. Some movies are as complex as life itself. These movies really can't be understood or fully appreciated with a single viewing. I really hope she does spend some time re-watching the movie, and taking it all in. Movies have a great power to change people. 99 and 44/100ths percent of them don't even try. There are true gems like this movie, which show you the world in a new way. And that new view of things changes you. You are not the same person at the end of the movie, as you were at the beginning. As some of the other comments have said, this is the sort of movie that stays with you. The world around you will look different. And you will think new thoughts, even about things that you've said, or done, or thought for years.

Mississippi Burning would be a great emotional watch for you as well!

International Women's Day is coming up on March 8th. If Ashleigh wants to celebrate it, here are a few suggestions for some great Girl Power movies. "Enough" with Jennifer Lopez, "Sleeping with the Enemy" with Julia Roberts, "First Wives Club" with Goldie Hawn, "Legally Blonde" with Reese Witherspoon, "The Women" with Norma Shearer, "The Heiress" with Olivia De Havilland, and "Westward the Women" with Denise Darcel.

Absolutely, films like these take a lot of processing afterwards, there's so much nuance, so many complex relationships, it takes time to fully comprehend everything that takes place in the story.

Erin Brockovitch, Hidden Figures, and Thelma & Louise would be great choices as well.

Sweetie, i watched this film when it was released. I couldn't believe humans did things like that to each other. The healing is what made it worth it all.

Oh yes The Heiress for Women’s Day please. You won’t regret it. Also another great film is A Place In The Sun

Dear Ashleigh, this book by Alice Walker has been on my "Must Read" list for years. As any reader will tell you, your personal reading list never diminishes, it just keeps growing. I had never seen the movie "The Color Purple" because I always intended to read the book first before watching the movie. After I saw the thumbnail of you in tears in your "Color Purple" reaction, that was all the motivation I needed to finally pick up the book. I am so glad I finally got to read it and watch the movie. While the movie was not as great as the book, watching your movie reaction was similar to the roller coaster ride I had while reading. Thank you for being the reason I finally got to read this extraordinary book.
