Oprah Winfrey, who was nominated for an Oscar for her screen debut in Steven Spielberg’s 1985 adaptation of The Color Purple, has graduated to executive producer (also with Spielberg) of the new musical film version, opening Christmas Day. The movie is based on the Broadway musical which she also produced, in 2005 and 2015. In a behind-the-scenes documentary, Winfrey explains the appeal and impact of Alice Walker’s original novel and how it has evolved on screen and stage.
