?It rides the underlying currents of its moment and renders them glorious.?
-San Francisco Chronicle

Set to one of the most slammin' albums of the 80s and using element of Prince?s own rags-to-riches story, Purple Rain is an ideal cult classic. See this stylistic gem the way it?s meant to be seen, in a theater, surrounded by fans still flushed from seeing Morris Day and the Time in concert. Come find out how Prince became the artist and the man he is today in a film punctuated by great performances by both Prince and Zoot Suit clad, scene-stealer Morris Day. What does it sound like when doves cry? There's only one way to find out.
