Re: [Prince-4ever] 25 Years Ago Today: Purple Rain The Movie Premieres [Dr. FB]

 

There's a lot of heart and passion in the movie. Just when the kid, Morris and Jerome interact with 1another, u can see the passion and heart they showcase. That's 1 of my favorite words (showcase). LoL

I don't care what anyone says,
that movie is magic
the right people right time right music
you don't get to many movies that have the magic Purple Rain does
When I watch it it still has the excitement that makes me interesting in Prince especially the background and vision he had then

25 Years Ago Today: Purple Rain The Movie Premieres

Purple Rain debuted 25 years ago today. The premiere was 25 years ago yesterday. Instant classic. Best Rock n Roll movie of all time. 80's chic next to Pretty In Pink, 16 Candles, and The Breakfast Club.
More photos as article continues here……>>>>
It was Prince's 6th CD, the official debut of his group The Revolution and most importantly, his major motion picture debut.  The summer of 1984 belonged to Prince. My favorite song (along with hundreds of others) by Prince was dominating my stereo. When Doves Cry got worn out on my record player. I had to replace the cassette copy of the entire album every 2 months. I killed it.

Apollonia Kotero became my fantasy girl at an age where I should not be having thoughts like that.

This movie had several stories going on, which is something most movies don't have nowadays. From the performances with the Revolution and The Time and Apolllonia 6, no rock/music movie has ever matched up to Purple Rain since it's release. EVER.
I usually watch the movie every few years or so when it hits the big screen.

I just wanted to honor Prince and those that made the movie and the music so special to me and millions of others.
So Prince, Albert Magnoli, William Blinn, Susan Rogers, Apollonia Kotero, Morris Day, Jerome Benton, Billy Sparks, Jill Jones, Charles "Big Chick" Huntsberry, Dez Dickerson, Prince, Brenda Bennett, Susan Moonsie, Alan Leeds, Israel Gordon, Wendy Melvoin, Lisa Coleman, Brown Mark, Jellybean Johnson, Mark Cardenas, Gerald E, Hubbard Jr., Paul Peterson, Jesse Johnson, 1st Avenue, The People Of Minneapolis and Prince, thank you.  Thank you so much.
There are a few photos I took of some personal items that have ended up in my possession over the past few years. Some you may have seen before. I felt on this anniversary, I would pull them out for you.  Much Love always.-Dr.FB
