It is Spielberg's eighth film as a director and was a departure from the summer blockbusters for which he had become known. It is the first film directed by Spielberg for which John Williams did not compose the score, which was done by Quincy Jones instead. Jones also produced the film alongside Spielberg, Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall . The film stars Whoopi Goldberg in her breakthrough role, along with Danny Glover , Oprah Winfrey (in her film debut), Margaret Avery and Adolph Caesar …
"The movie tells the coming-of-age story of a young African-American girl named Celie Harris and the brutal experiences she endured... in early 20th century rural Georgia .
