Take a richly-human story of survival and triumph, a now soundtrack by the hottest bands around and the startling presence and musicality of rock superstar Prince - the man who lived the music - and you've got what may be in Rolling Stone's words "the smartest, most spiritually ambitious rock-'n'-roll movie ever made." Winner of Grammy and Academy Awards for its pulsating song score, Purple Rain marks the electrifying movie debut of Prince as The Kid, a Minneapolis club musician as alienated as he is talented. The Kid struggles with a tumultuous home life and his own smouldering anger while taking refuge in his music and his steamy love for sexy Apollonia Kotero. Prince and The Revolution scorch with Let's Go Crazy, I Would Die 4 U, When Doves Cry and the title song. And "Purple Rain showers us with unexpected pleasures," Stephen Schaefer wrote in US. "Musically it is a triumphant firestorm."
