520 |a In the 1980s, Prince was ubiquitous in the US. Not only did he dominate the airwaves, MTV, and movie theaters, he presented an ever-evolving visual and sonic persona. But one theme tied all his work together: love. This article traces Prince's depiction and beliefs of love from Purple Rain (1984) to Graffiti Bridge (1990), focusing on key moments in his films, videos, and music. Throughout this period, Prince explored love in many different forms, including the love of self, others, revolution, and God. Through dialogue and lyrics from his films, videos, and music, Prince's many different versions of love are woven together to create a greater narrative that celebrates Prince's grand vision of love for all.
