"While most people tout “The Color Purple,” and rightly so, I love, beyond measure, “Possessing the Secret of Joy,” which is a not quite sequel to “The Color Purple” about Tashi, the wife of Celie's son Adam, and how something that happens to her body at a very young age shapes the rest of her life. This is the novel that taught me how to write fiction with political ambitions. It is searing and wondrous and painful and every time I read it, the ending wrecks me. And still, I go back for more. That's how important this novel is."

"I could never write the way Colette did. I’ve never found anything to match her descriptive passages, ever. She was a very sensual writer, and way beyond her time. Chéri is a love story between a very spoiled young man and his mistress who has “been there, done that.” He’s self-centered and vicious, and she ultimately turns out to be very noble. The final scene is incredibly moving; it makes me cry. I absolutely bow to Colette, but I think if she could hear me, she would probably tell me where to get lost, because she was that kind of woman."

The Ending

Good Cast..Stupid Movie

What the hell did i just watch!!.A bizarre and ridiculous movie that made no sense and moved at the equivalent snails pace as the zombies in the film itself.

No laughs,the underlying message of how we have an addiction to material things and a waste of some great actors are the main things you take away from watching this film.Oh and as for the ridiculous conversation between Murrays and Drivers characters at the end when they start discussing the script for the film is just silly beyond words.
