Story Synopsis

Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Toni Morrison, Beloved stars Oprah Winfrey as Sethe, a former Kentucky slave now living with her daughter Denver (Elise) in freedom. When Paul (Glover) an old friend from the plantation reappears and moves in with them, Sethe is forced to confront the mysteries and horrors of her past—especially after a strange young woman who they name Beloved (Newton) appears at their doorstep. The DVD includes a production featurette.
