heart wrenching and unimaginable but was the reality for far too many people back then. this movie makes you feel sick to your stomach at times and that’s the whole point. i think it’s important to acknowledge that this was not that long ago!! <PERSON> would be turning 82 next week if still alive, only two years older than the president. 325
meaning that some people from his time (with the same old racist beliefs that his killers had) are still roaming. <PERSON> performance was absolutely incredible, you can feel the pain in her cries through the screen. the film was able to portray <PERSON>’s bravery and grief throughout it all, but also showed the huuuge impact she made on the civil rights movement after. obviously it’s nearly impossible to enjoy the film, but i think it was necessary for it to be made.
it feels a lil weird to rate this so i’m just not gonna 325
