Two men are on trail for the murder of a 14-year-old boy named Emmett Till. It’s 1955 in Sumner, Mississippi. The boy was found murdered in the river. 

This production is very well done. They have expertly recreated the courtroom drama that took place. It’s very professional and polished with an exceptional sound design by Warren Levon.

The entire cast is excellent with the lawyers as the standouts. John Henry Roberts is superb as the prosecutor pleading his case with the evidence he has available. Steve Silver is great as the defense attorney shedding doubt about every piece of evidence and every witness testimony. 

After watching, you can decide for yourself if enough evidence was provided to convict these men.
