My mother DRAGGED me to see the movie Beloved.. I can't remember if it was toni morrison that wrote it. But it was the most HORRIBLE movie ever made. My mother and I were not comfortable at all with much the scenes in the movie. My mother thought many of the scenes were gratuitous, and reminded her too much of when her friends called my dad a slave master. I hated the movie, because movies are supposed to be fun and help you forget your problems. Hence I never read books by Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, Maya Angelou. Not discounting what these women have been through. I just have enough depression!
