"He asked me whether I had seen the movie 'The Color Purple.' I said no she hadn't. And Bobby said, 'Well, it's a terrible picture. They don't make good, decent, moral pictures nowadays.'"

This quote is a reflection on the state of modern-day movie theater. Bobby is expressing his dissatisfaction in the lack of good, good, and ethical motion pictures being made. He is suggesting that the only motion pictures being made are ones that do not have any type of ethical compass. He is also implying that the motion picture 'The Color Purple' is an example of this, as he has asked the speaker if they have actually seen it and then goes on to state it is a horrible photo. This recommends that Bobby thinks the film is not a great, good, or ethical one. This quote is a commentary on the state of modern movie theater and how it is lacking in ethical worths.
