Beloved
Dir. Jonathan Demme
With Oprah Winfrey, Danny Glover, Thandie Newton
1998, 172min, 35mm
The only feature length film adaptation of Toni Morrison’s work, Beloved was overlooked by audiences unprepared for its uncompromising expressionist intensity. This supernatural tale stands as an impossible-to-shake experience that deftly captures the harrowing power of Morrison’s vision.
