Beloved tries to be an anthem of the spirit, and that's just about the most difficult -- and unfilmable -- thing you can attempt in the movies. Demme stretches things out to epic length, but what was really needed here was an epic imagination.
Beloved.
Directed by Jonathan Demme. Written by Akosua Busia, Richard LaGravenese, and Adam Brooks. Based on the novel by Toni Morrison. Starring Oprah Winfrey, Danny Glover, Thandie Newton, and Kimberly Elise.
