Winfrey stars as Sethe, a former slave confronted by the secrets that have haunted her for years. When an an old friend (Danny Glover) unexpectedly reenters her life, Sethe begins to slowly rediscover who she is-until a mysterious young woman (Thandie Newton) appears on their doorstep one day.

I love this movie. The book too. But it was Thandie Newton's performance that captivated me.
I was horrified by this film as a youngster, you really need to read the book first.
Thank you for the tip.
Nope
Reading the book now and am so moved. Sorrow and perseverance and much poetry. Always prefer reading before watching. Feel I'm going to love all the performances.
How can you not see the beauty in this film? With all the horror it's still so hauntingly beautiful.
🥴🥴🤮
I totally agree
Agreed can't wait to watch it.
I remember regretting watching this movie when I was 10, the word “Beloved” haunted me for years.
Exactly my experience. Such a powerful and horrifying film.
What was it abt ?
The same thing happened to me
Same. I was horrified.
@@denaemills6120 This movie is about unresolved trauma. If you want to go deeper, it's about the fall out of our people who are suffering from the curses of Deuteronomy 28.
This movie is an absolute masterpiece.
i read the book, and it is such a literary masterpiece that i will forever praise
Same. As I’m doing my project right now
, I realized how complex the characters are. Toni always does such a great job with her books but these characters are phenomenal. So many layers to unmask
Is the book scary? What's the genre?
@@ianlove29 it's drama, historical fiction, and magical realism (since the 'ghost' is a big part of it)
it's not scary, but can be suspenseful. How the author described the characters and emotions in it is really amazing
Will read the book. I find that the book is usually better. I really enjoyed the movie though.
Just watched this today for the first time as an adult, Very riveting When art has the power to invoke feeling The artist Has done his/her job This was a complete master class in southern gothic
I cut class in high school to see this movie after I read the book.
Just saw Thandie Newton's post about this film and only remember how horrified I was as a child watching this film. I couldn't finish watching it...scarred my mind for a while. Maybe better to read the book first, or just.
All the actors in the film are incredible, part of why I wanted to watch it.
I'm fascinated by how many comments here are consistently mentioning how terrified this film left people. I knew there were supernatural elements to it, but I had no idea it got that...dark.
I'm revisiting Jonathan Demme's filmography, this being one of his films I still somehow haven't seen. Found it on sale on Amazon on dvd (it was not available streaming) for only $5 a few days ago. Bought it immediately. It came in the mail today and, before watching it, I wanted to re-watch the trailer (I remember seeing it ages ago...) and see how people were commenting.
Apparently it is *much* scarier than I anticipated. :)
I'm a cinema guy, and have to, all due respect, admit to knowing virtually nothing about Morrison; all I know of her novel "Beloved" is its title. Judging from the comments here though, she was clearly a gifted writer, much beloved in her own right. Looking forward to seeing what choices Demme (a *gifted filmmaker* if ever there was one...) made adapting her work.
Yeah. I know I rented a bunch of movies along with Beloved, back then. But this terrible film blocked the other films from memory. 😄😄
has anyone who watched it as a kid and was traumatized, rewatched it as an adult?
I was just thinking of doing that. It's burned into my childhood memory.
I’m scared of this movie so bad I can’t even finish the trailer.
Same here! It was the most horrifying thing I've ever watched. I will never watch it again.
Never seen the movie the trailer doesn’t look bad is it really scary like people say? I’m actually into horror films
Very much so
In addition to being a great movie, it has a wonderful soundtrack too.
This movie really haunted me. But in a way that I needed to be haunted. Maybe in a way we all do.
Yes
Well put. It did traumatize me when i was younger though 😊
THIS MOVIE SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME WHEN I WAS A JITT 🫣
Hope you ok😊
I was scared of this movie as a child.
This was the ad the movie should've aired on TV! Instead, we got a thirty-second ad that worked so had to make the film look good, it forgot to tell us what the movie was about. By the time I finally found out what the film was about, it had been a good 12 years. It gets interesting when a movie bombs for very unique reasons.
I actually enjoyed the book and the movie whether or not it bombed at the box office
This movie scared me crapless I was about 7 lol but rewatching as a adult it’s appreciated much more
Great movie , I like it a lot and looking forward to buy the DVD soon.
how this film doesn't get shown on UK TV more often is criminal.
Omg Im here from the shaderoom post about Black Trauma films and I NEVER heard of this one!
Heauxmade I’m here because of the post too lol
@@taloredwards I’m gonna watch it
Same lmao
Right me too lol
4 months later and they done posted it again so here i am 😂😂😂
It's absolutely terrific work, ahead of the time, Oprah really finally did not look out for the image that she had, and dove into the project! It's a shame that when she attempted to leave her image out and work on a project bigger than her people were unacceptable and shocked to see her branch out , bravo on beloved 👏 🙌!
Never heard of it til now and I'm pushing 39. I'm about to watch this
Need to watch as an adult
If this movie was hard for u as a child u need to rewatch it as a adult it hits different I promise
Doesn't this movie mention pulaski county or Somerset Kentucky at some point? I know it mentions kentucky at least 3 times
This movie fucked me up for years.
This is gonna haunt me But I'm all in
This movie is horrifying. I feel sick thinking about it. I’m absolutely afraid to watch it again.
Where is this movie available?
I read the book for my literature class and I curious to see if it got adapted, surprised to see that many watched this when they were kids :'v
this editor needs to chill it with the cross disolves
Onde tem o filme?
Hi
1:29
What a sick movie this is This lady been through so much from white people she was so terrified of them tht she was willing to kill her own children just so they can't do to them what they did to her, A lot of people don't get this movie a lot of people look at her like she's a monster but she wasn't I almost thought beloved was an illusionation of her brain just like the movie conjuring beloved haunted sethe from spirit then in flesh that part confused the shit out of me I guess in this movie God Said I know you was trying to make a sacrifice but you still will be haunted by the sacrifice that you made??? I have to get this movie probably a 6 out of a 10 because it's too damn long just like my comment but you really got to watch This movie very closely or you will completely get lost..
This is in my syllabus of English major and so I'm gonna watch yesss
Same
We reading this book in Our BA
I just noticed that Denver she had braces on in the movie lol
Where can i watch this?
Disney+
It’s on Hulu
This movie is scary hard to watch 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
This movie was hard for me to watch in the theater I remember it wasn't packed but the people in the theater was shocked by this movie alot of gasping I also regretted watching it also but it's not Oprah's best movie I would say
Love love love this movie!!’
As much as I hate Oprah nowadays, she’s in some of my favorite childhood movies 😒
I’m shocked these liberals haven’t made a remake of this classic, considering they have zero authenticity with all the other classics they’re remaking these days 😂❤️🌸
Everybody say the movie is scary but the trailer look more sad or motivational I don’t see the scary I guess I’ll find out when I watch it
This movie used to be scary to me as a child. Now that I’m an adult I’m ready to watch it again and get a better understanding of what little I did understand years ago. Now it’s just spooky; not necessarily scary.
I don’t remember anything scary about this movie. How is this a horror?
Fundamentally it is about what the word haunting means, isn't that what all horror movies explore, in a way? It's not that terrifying things happen, it's that the terrifying things happened never really leave you (sometimes literally)
I was about to say the same I remember watching this as a kid it was not scary lol
Wierd and disturbing and confusing. Even the book is confusing.
You have to be used to Toni Morrisons writing.
It bombed. And I'm not surprised. It was like the colour purple on acid. Completely incomplete and impossible to follow unless you were tripping yourself!
Hahahaha thanks lol
Imbecile
I totally disagree. It may have bombed at the box office but I’ve never let that stop me. I form my own opinions. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. The actors and premise were different from other cookie cutter movies. Office Space, Warrior, Ali and Fight Club also bombed based on sales but were really good movies.
@@getreal4real169 after sitting through it I then went on to have the worst nightmares I've had in years. God knows what it must have done to my subconscious...
My mother told me I was not allowed to watch it as a child. Now that I am 35 years old, I'm going to watch it. I see that people were saying that they were traumatized as a kid when they watched it. I will give an update.
Fu I OVER IT
Be like common...or loved...like prince. Dearly beloveth. Wrong
Always Hated This.
HeLLo ReMeMBER ME 😠😡🤬
Wth? This movie looks dumb.
@@basma8188 No thanks.
The ad was made in 1998 so if isn't very detailed but the movie is terrifying in my opinion I remember watching it as a kid
Great movie!!!! Glad to see they made up from the colour purple!
Oprah ?! Well thats a no from me.
That's expected from...you.
I use to dislike Oprah.. I can even say I probably closely hated her. I can't say that now.. I watched one of her Soul Sunday episodes and all of a sudden I could see the love she has for people and wants to see them live their best life. An overwhelming emotion of love for her came over me! I can 100% say that I love Oprah Winfrey!
Where can i watch this movie ?
