Powerful

Powerful story, and one that's well told here. One of the great things about telling it from the uncle's perspective is that the feeling of dread and powerlessness is amplified. Imagine laying there in the dark of night, listening for someone who may come, wondering what cruelty might be committed. We see who Emmett Till was from his perspective - just a kid, an innocent kid. Like other young men, he's interested in having fun and flirting with women, but not in a menacing way. There is a quietness about the film that goes well with the pain of subjugation in the Jim Crow south. The inclusion of the archival footage is also brilliant.
