[United States] : Universal, 2023. 1 videodisc (ca. 131 min.) : sd., col. ; 4 3/4 in. 01/17/2023. Director, Chinonye Chukwu. Danielle Deadwyler, Jalyn Hall, Frankie Faison, Haley Bennett, Jamie Renell, Whoopi Goldberg, Sean Patrick Thomas, John Douglas Thompson. 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. "An impassioned melodrama on the surface, unafraid of facing tragedy head-on and allowing ample space for grief, anger, and fear, but which is also a wise movie about the complicatedly political world Mamie Till finds herself in."--Rolling Stone. "An engrossing Civil Rights drama that could turn its little-known star into an Oscar winner."--Newsday. "In her terrific performance as the mother of Emmett Till, Danielle Deadwyler wrestles a ghastly American tragedy into a story of resilience crucial to the civil rights movement."--Variety.
