Featured review
Past Not Forgotten...
You've seen it all before, but that doesn't make this film a chore, it's important to remember, there was a world without defenders, when murderers roamed free, taking lives with so much glee, all protected by the courts, in Mississippi there was no retort.
The brutal execution of Emmett Till replayed and relayed through an outstanding cast, but none quite as incredible as Danielle Deadwyler's heartfelt performance of the lynched boy's mother who's quest for justice is unsurprisingly quenched, but goes on to form part of the momentum of the time to initiate the changes required in the struggle of the African American (and others) for equality, justice and fairness.
