Comment

The color crimson is a film which shocked at its exit. That a white, Jew, (which is being Steven Spielberg) carry out a film adaptation of a book on the black populations to the E. - U., written by black, is found abnormal, by part of criticisms. It is thus a film with share at Spielberg, because even if it achieved the unanimity forever, rare are its films of such a debate.

Whoopi Goldberg was made famous thanks to this film and it is one of rare films of Spielberg of which the music was not composed by John Williams.
