For Colored Girls is a 2010 American drama film adapted from Ntozake Shange's 1975 original choreopoem for colored girls who have considered suicide / when the rainbow is enuf. Written, directed and co-produced by Tyler Perry, the film features an ensemble cast which includes Janet Jackson, Whoopi Goldberg, Phylicia Rashad, Thandiwe Newton, Loretta Devine, Anika Noni Rose, Tessa Thompson, Kimberly Elise, Kerry Washington, and Macy Gray.
The film's ensemble consists of ten women of color, seven of whom are based on the play's seven characters, only known by colour (e.g. "lady in red", "lady in brown", and "lady in yellow"), and explores their lives and struggles as women of color.[4][5] Like its source material, each character deals with a different personal conflict, such as love, abandonment, rape, infidelity, and abortion. It was the first film to be produced by 34th Street Films, an imprint of Tyler Perry Studios, and the first R-rated film directed by Perry. With a budget of $21 million, For Colored Girls was released on November 5, 2010, by Lionsgate Films, and made $38 million.
