On this day in 1984, the theatrical film companion to Prince’s groundbreaking album Purple Rain was released in theaters.
The film won an Academy Award for Best Original Song Score, a Grammy Award for Best Album Written for a Motion Picture, an NAACP Image Award, and was even added to the National Film Resgistry by the Library of Congress, which recognizes “aesthetically, culturally, or historically significant films.”
If you’re hosting a Purple Rain watch party today, tag us and @PaisleyPark and we’ll reshare our favorites!
Dearly beloved, we have gathered here today, to get through this thing called #PrinceDay. Because on the seventh day of June, we celebrate Prince's birthday and his legacy.
#Goodfellas director Martin Scorsese remembers Ray Liotta: "He was so uniquely gifted, so adventurous, so courageous as an actor." https://t.co/eAGp1LKdVD
Shocked and saddened to hear of Ray Liotta’s passing. Beyond the tough guy exterior and the tightly wound emotions of his signature characters, he was a sweet, playful and passionate collaborator and brilliant actor. RIP.
