"You know what white represents? Spiritually, it's rebirth: You get baptized, you put on a white robe, and you allow yourself to be witnessed in a certain way and to be changed."
"For her deeply felt performance as Mamie Till, whose 14-year-old son Emmett was slain by white supremacists, Deadwyler won leading honors from the NAACP Awards, Gotham Awards and National Board of Review."
"Though Boy Willie wants to sell it to buy land, Berniece insists the piano should stay put, since it serves as a totemic reminder of what their enslaved ancestors have been through."
"As Berniece deals with Boy Willie, rebuffs the preacher Avery (Corey Hawkins), who seeks to court her, and shares a surprising, erotically charged moment with her brother's friend Lymon (Ray Fisher), Deadwyler feels compellingly real in the role."
