Till

"A story that to many is not well known. Those of us from the south know the seething underbelly of hatred that unfortunately still lives in some. It sickens me. This story needed to be told and shared. Recommended. "

"A telling of a seminal story in the short life of a black boy raised in the north who was murdered while visiting his cousins in Mississippi. The story focuses on the incident and the bravery of his mother who seeks justice for her son."

"“Hate is like a virus in the blood of the Mississippi “ Till directed by Chinonye Chukwu is a heartbreaking yet necessary film. While impressive technically, what truly makes this film undeniably powerful is the outstanding acting, most notably the powerhouse performance from lead Danielle Deadwyler. Even knowing the story seeing how that whole day unfolded just made it that much more heart crushing. There was still so much about this case I didn’t know especially the fact lynching just became a federal hate crime in 2022 which is f**king ridiculous.One thing that doesn’t sit right with me is the two men confessed and were pay $4000 and moved somewhere. Then the woman is still alive to this day somewhere in Kentucky and never faced any consequences for her actions which lead to the death of a child. I also thought about the fact my father was born in Mississippi and was 8 years old when Emmit Till died down there. It’s just kind of crazy to think he was living when it was still that bad. Which makes me realize this honestly wasn’t as far back as I imagined. If he didn’t pass away a year ago I would call him and ask did he remember when this happened back then. Don’t think just because you know what happened that this ain’t worth watching because it’s still as important as it was 67 years ago."

"Really great story about an undertold part of American history. "

"Sharing truth in history is extremely beneficial and is done exquisitely in this movie. The majority of people will be able to learn something new from this movie. 10/10"

"Please take the youth in your life to see this film. The story is so vital. The courage of Mamie's life's and her legacy is stunning. Don't miss this opportunity to share truth in history with your teenagers & young adults. 5 Stars"

"This movie is so heartbreaking but Mama Till is a strong woman who demands justice and doesn’t give up without a fight!"

"This movie brought me to tears. Despite knowing the story of Emmett Till, I still couldn't help but be surprised about the actions African Americans faced back then. The mothers cries and shrieks send a strong message. "

"Such a sad movie, but the mom showed so much courage. "

"Heartbreaking to hear that this was a true story and that they had no justice"
