The cast is superb, especially Kimberly Elise and Phylicia Rashad. And the rest of the cast is just as compelling, including a low-key Janet Jackson, Loretta Devine, singer Macy Gray, Thandie Newton, Whoopi Goldberg, Kerry Washington, and Anika Noni Rose.\nFor Colored Girls follows each actress\/character as she faces prejudice, economic challenges, male abandonment, role upheaval--and all the emotions that go along with them. The original play was performed as poetry, and while the editing of\nFor Colored Girls is a little uneven, Perry lets Shange's poetry truly shine through. Any person of color, any woman, and anyone who cares about them, will be drawn in to the deepest dramas a woman of color can experience--in the '70s or today. Viewers will get goose bumps when Newton's character, Tangie, says, \"Being alive and being a woman is all I got, but being colored is a metaphysical dilemma I haven't conquered yet.\" And Elise as Crystal is utterly heartbreaking, with a performance reminiscent of her unforgettable turn in\nBeloved. The soundtrack of\nFor Colored Girls is as unforgettable as the film, with performances by Gray, Sharon Jones, and others, including Estelle, in a showstopping version of \"All Day Long (Blue Skies).\" The blues may be wrenching--but in\nFor Colored Girls, they make up the poetry of life. --\nA.T.
