Oprah Winfrey:
As long as there's a need for self-discovery, self-empowerment; as long as there’s a need for victory in someone’s life; as long as there's a need for people to know what it feels like to be loved up and to be made full and whole through somebody else’s love — there will be a need for.

I was making a behind the scenes documentary for HBO and interviewing some of the cast members. Fantasia Barrino so deeply moved me — she said this movie changed her because it allowed her to forgive. She said to me, “People coming to this movie will be healed”.

How do you create something that's new but still honours the source? That was the job. We knew that thisis evergreen; as long as there continues to be issues of gender bias, domestic abuse, racial inequality — these things are central to whatis. If you look out your window, it’s happening today — that’s how I knew for sure I’d be able to lean into what was new about it, but also know it already comes with an inbuilt history that Alice Walker bequeathed us.
