Review of Till

Till (I) (2022)
7/10
About 20-40 minutes too long.

This film stretched out every scene to the max, and had many that weren't even needed. All casting and performances were excellent, and that's what stood out the most for me in this film. I couldn't even recognize Whoopi cast as the grandmother and had to ask Alexa "who is cast in the movie Till" to confirm it was in fact her - very impressive. I also discovered that Alexa pronounces Goldberg's first name as Whoppy, not Whoopi when you ask with the exact phrase I used. The sets, props and costumes were impressive and very detail-oriented for the era. The cinematography and score were spot-on. Sadly though, it wasn't as engaging or suspenseful as I expected, as everything is told in too a-matter-of-factly way. Still a decent one-time watch, especially for Danielle Deadwyler's heart-wrenching performance.
