Bradley's Retelling of Time: The Richardson Family
11 October 2020
Bradley's treatment of the Richardson family is "timely" and needed to give the mainstream empathy for incarceration time. The documentary follow Mrs. Sibil Richardson's (Fox Rich) determinationn to advocate the release of her husband, Robert who was doing a 60 year sentence.

The rest of the segments composed of intimate interviews with their children. It follows their mother advocating the problem of imprisonment. Its contrast of black and white imagery, capturing the tension, almost "noir" like appearance.

The interesting side of this documentary is showing the Louisiana Creole life. Even seeking "faith" outside of church support but to practice Afro-Louisiana "folkloric" traditions beyond Baptist and Catholic beliefs.
