Given the theatricality of Prince's stage shows, it was only a matter of time before the diminutive pop potentate found himself a big-screen vehicle but few could have predicted that Purple Rain would become nothing less than a cultural phenomenon. The story, co-written by one-time Starsky & Hutch scripter William Blinn, may be a somewhat hackneyed tale with His Purpleness overcoming a troubled background and musical rival Morris Day to achieve his dreams of rock stardom. However, the cast, which also includes Prince protegée Appollonia, rises above the clichés to hand in a set of performances which, while never likely to trouble the Oscars, prove that all concerned can at least play a rough approximation of themselves with minimal difficulty. What really helped push the film's box-office receipts through the roof, however, was its soundtrack featuring a clutch of hit singles--notably "When Doves Cry"--and which cemented our pint-sized hero's position as one of the globe's premiere performing artists. Sadly, subsequent attempts to re-bottle this particular brand of lightning with Under a Cherry Moon and Graffiti Moon would prove substantially less successful but Purple Rain still looks--and, more importantly sounds--rarely less than funktastic. -- Clark Collis Prince makes his acting debut in this rock musical. He stars as The Kid, an ambitious and talented young musician from a harsh, poverty-stricken background struggling to win love and musical recognition in Minneapolis. In search of success, he spends his nights performing at the First Avenue Nightclub with his band, The Revolution. When he meets fellow aspiring singer Apollonia (Apollonia Kotero), he is completely smitten - but when he replicates the abusive behaviour of his father (Clarence Williams III), he looks set to lose her forever. Can he win her back from his arch enemy, Morris (Morris Day), who fronts rival group The Time and will he ever find the success he craves? Review: A blast from the past. - quality product Review: just Fantastic, its that Simple - Fantastic DVD and love every second of it. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Albert Magnoli, Apollonia Kotero, Billy Sparks, Clarence Williams III, Dez Dickerson, Donald E.

Having now got it again, I'd forgotten what a good film Purple Rain is. Prince is no Marlon Brando, but this was the role he was born for. After all these years the final scene with the performance of "Purple Rain" still brings a tear to the eye. Well worth the purchase, and the bonus disc with the live concert is Prince and the Revolution at their best. ## Frequently Bought Together - Purple Rain [DVD] 2 Disk 20th Anniversary Edition - Under The Cherry Moon [DVD] [1986] --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/135250864-purple-rain-dvd-2-disk-20th-anniversary-edition](https://www.desertcart.be/products/135250864-purple-rain-dvd-2-disk-20th-anniversary-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-07-31*
