[MsTsuchikage]

that one line is the most powerful line in the movie. "See daddy? Sinners have souls too." this movie is a classic.

[zabdisoto]

it really makes me cry this movie and this song it´s really beautiful with her voice

[crazymangas]

that sure is an amazing song, nearly made me cry!

[BrownSkinDarkChild]

I love this movie and this scene. Many movies try to copy it but none are as powerful. Shug's voice is incredible"

[kikioh900]

@Candygirl050792 its the other way around, her father didn't her line of work, so he didn't want nothinq to do with her because he was a preacher &'she was a 'sinner'.

[pantherandme]

This movie is the BEST movie EVER made. It gets me by my throat every single time. It gives me hope....that there is good in most people.....even in mister..... Thank you Steven Spielberg for this precious jewel :-)

[jdlocotxftw2002]

When Shug sings .... "Well maybe Godddd's . .trying to tell . .you something...." that's when I feel the chills

[thugz00]

I'm 21 and I wish more young people my age would watch movies like this, it,s so beautiful, nowadays ppl my age only watch dumb, hollyweird stuff and sometimes I feel like an outcast in my generation. I wish they made more movies like the CP in these hard times today, the world needs it.

[ch77vy]

[Red7Eric]

I always thought that Shug just couldn't handle anyone else in town singing a solo. "I can sing that song better'n that b****." Or thoughts to that effect.

[4Realian]

[danaja123]

[justliketeflon]

Why is this the best part of the movie????? I love this...really brings a tear to my eye. Go on with your bad self, lady whose name I don't know, AKA, Shug Avery.

[emgodhth]

Margaret Avery

[Mikizzle15]

I don't know. I guess, because you finally saw Shug getting her happy ending. I LOVE this part too!!!

[MissJenni2642]

@justliketeflon this is one of my favorites as well, but I would have to say the part when Cellie and Nettie were seperated by Mister..now that killed me! I remember seeing it in the theater and there wasnt a dry eye in the house.

[PsychLion]

She got legs like baseball bats. lol

Sorry just had to. Amazing scene nonetheless.

[brownskingoddess]

oh my god! her voice gives me chills too! whew!

[Equus2011]

is the lady that plays shug avery really singing this part? her voice gives me chills.

[emgodhth]

i've heard of few different stories about her voice in this scene. i 1st heard it was margaret avery: the actress who played shug avery. then i heard that the voice was dubbed with the magnificent singing voice of shirley caesar. if i find out 4 sure, i'll let u know!!!

[dl2y]

it was tata vega

[chubakutensei]

@emgodhth It's not shirley, it's actually margaret avery...:-)

[Born2basoldier]

@chubakutenseiWhile Avery did a little on the track, Maria Howell did the voiceover in the signature film performance as the choir soloist in the movie "The Color Purple "one of the film's most stirring moments!" Her rendition of "God Is Trying to Tell You Something" was memorable for all who saw it, she can be see hear on youtube performing the song live...... I'm just sayinnnn

[Born2basoldier]

youtube wont let me post the link but just put this in Maria Howell sings God Is Trying To Tell You Something

[lifeinterrupted]

@chubakutensei It's Tata Vega.

[RICH247]

@emgodhth Its actually Tata Vega who did the singing parts for Shug Avery. 

[PsycoLibraBoy]

@Equus2011 No It's Tata Vega.
