Recommended. Because of his age (14) and the trivial nature of his "crime" (whistling at a white woman), the murder of Emmett Till still haunts Mississippi . . . and all of us. Till’s murder was less than many similar crimes, but was dramatized by his mother, Mamie, deciding on an open-casket funeral and publishing horrific photos of Till in Jet magazine. Her desire to force society to stare into the consequences of racist violence is the movie’s linchpin, well explained by Nigerian-born director/screenwriter, Chinonye Chukwu (Clemency) and the powerful performance of Danielle Deadwyler (The Harder They Fall). Deadwyler is supported by Jalyn Hall’s (Shaft) Emmett Till, his happy-go-lucky personality underscoring his awful fate. If there is a flaw to this wrenching film, it’s the incomplete story. After all of the drama, we are left with little to learn about Mamie’s subsequent fate, other than agony and anger understandable . . . but ultimately unsatisfying.
