Till
Till is a profoundly emotional and cinematic film about the true story of Mamie Till Mobley's relentless pursuit of justice for her 14 year old son, Emmett Till, who, in 1955, was lynched while visiting his cousins in Mississippi. In Mamie's poignant journey of grief turned to action, we see the universal power of a mother's ability to change the world.

Danielle Deadwyler gives a powerhouse performance in the tragic and true story of Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley. It’s straightforward narratively and doesn’t offer much new if you don’t already know of this story, but this is one of those cases where the power of the true story itself stands the film up on it’s own. Plus, I always love a film with a long cold open.
