"BELOVED:
Oprah
Winfrey
(The Color Purple) and Danny Glover (Lethal Weapon series, The Royal Tenenbaums) play the unforgettable lead roles in a powerful widely acclaimed cinematic triumph from Jonathan Demme -- the Academy Award(R)-winning director (1991) of The Silence of the Lambs! On a difficult journey to find freedom Sethe (
Winfrey
) is constantly confronted by the secrets that have haunted her for years. Then an old friend from out of her past (Glover) unexpectedly reenters her life. With his help Sethe may finally be able to rediscover who she is and regain her lost sense of hope. Also featuring outstanding performances from Thandie Newton (Mission: Impossible 2) and Lisa Gay Hamilton (TV's The Practice)-- you'll agree with critics everywhere who've hailed this landmark adaptation of Toni Morrison's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel as one of the year's finest films!
