 MARGARET ROWELL: An Introduction
Margaret believes in teaching "from the inside out." She wants you to feel what it is like to produce an expressive tone and a beautiful phrase, not just fit yourself to a prescribed position with the hope that things will come out sounding all right.
What Margaret and her student had accomplished with one finger scales was to have so simplified the technique achieving a beautiful tone, shiftings intonation, and all the other fundamentals that climbing the Mount Everest of cello literature was relatively easy as a result.
Margaret brings a picture of a skeleton to show the similarities in the construction of arms and legs, and shows how the feet have their reflexes built into them but the hands work only through the brain.

In a way it's a shame that Whoopi Goldberg, a stage monologist who made her screen debut in this movie, went on to become so famous, because it was, in part, her unfamiliarity that made her understated performance as Celie so effective.
Oprah Winfrey was given an Oscar nomination, as was Margaret Avery, but there are so many stunning performances here from the entire cast that pointing out any standout performances is nearly impossible.
There is also some clever film editing(certainly the most under-rated facet of filmmaking), that keeps the film constantly fresh and the story moving forward with some fantastic cinematography.

 Amazon.ca: Which Way Is Up? (Widescreen): DVD: Michael Schultz,Richard Pryor,Lonette McKee,Margaret Avery,Morgan ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
This 1977 American variation on Lina Wertmuller's The Seduction of Mimi, the story of a stupid man's troubles in sex and politics, is a run-of-the-mill Richard Pryor vehicle.
Noteworthy only for its casting of two good actresses, Lonette McKee and Margaret Avery, and Pryor's multiple roles as an orange picker, a lecherous old man, and a minister, the film is made without a lot of care or effort to rise to Wertmuller's satiric accomplishment.
This ambitious but unfocused Richard Pryor vehicle has all the raunchy humor one would expect from his stand-up material but none of the warmth or heart.
