Till [Opened Oct. 28 in theaters.] When strong-willed African-American typist Mamie Till-Mobley (Danielle Deadwyler), who is dating a kindhearted barber (Sean Patrick Thomas), reluctantly sends her jovial, spunky, but naïve 14-year-old son Emmett Louis Till (Jalyn Hall) from Chicago to Mississippi by train in August 1955 to visit his sharecropping uncle (John Douglas Thompson) and cousins (Tyrik Johnson, et al.) and inadvertently compliments and whistles at a 21-year-old white store clerk (Haley Bennett) at a local store in Chinonye Chukwu's powerful, factually based, poignant, cringe-inducing, superbly acted, gut-wrenching, heartbreaking, star-studded (Jayme Lawson, Tosin Cole, Kevin Carroll, Darian Rolle, and Roger Guenveur Smith), 130-minute film inspired by Keith Beauchamp's 2005 documentary The Untold Story of Emmett Louis Till and Simeon Wright's autobiography Simeon's Story: An Eyewitness Account of the Kidnapping of Emmett Till, she learns that her only child was kidnapped, tortured, and lynched by two white supremacists (Sean Michael Webber and Eric Whitten) and then sought justice for his senseless, horrific murder with the support of her divorced parents (Whoopi Goldberg and Frankie Faison) and NAACP lawyers, and when the all-white male jury finds the killers not guilty after only one hour of deliberation, Mamie Till-Mobley commits the rest of her life fighting for racial justice and equality.
