Lovely Jackson

The film had a way of bringing you in and making you feel like you were a part of it. It tugged on your heart and the way it was edited was so immersive. After finding out the actors improvised large portions, I'm even more impressed.

The story of Rickey Jackson is most certainly a roller coaster of emotions. It brings such a human element to the prison system and shows you so many things you really didn't want to imagine would happen to a good person but did. He is a tough, kind person and it is shown throughout the film.

Congratulations on a wonderful film to the entire crew involved. Best wishes to Mr. Jackson in all of his future endeavors.

Not a sentimental or emotional person, yet I cried 3 times. The story is a 10/10, pacing a 10/10 and the visuals are so well done and real 10/10. I will go as far as to say this is my new favourite movie and will be watching this again soon. The editing was top notch and the immersion is real. A way of entertaining yourself while educating yourself. This movie is hands down the best movie of all time. I can't stress enough the after effect it left on my after watching it and the timeline follows through super well. I'm not a fan of documentaries and thought this would be one. They acted out the exact events and made it into a drama movie. The movie has its laughs too. Thank you for this movien.

This is a gripping story, shot and paced in a way that - even if you're familiar with the real-life events - you are on the edge of your seat the entire time. What elevates a remarkable story and filmmaking approach further: Ricky Jackson is an unequivocally amazing person. You will love him, cry for him, and want to fight for justice on his behalf.

Jackson is a powerful example of what a rise-above mentality looks like, and how "taking the higher road" benefits not only a person wronged - but also spreads a potentially endless positive ripple effect outwards. He consistently chooses to lean into the good (compassion, empathy, kindness, forgiveness and love) over the bad (anger, resentment, revenge) - and this choice enables him to live a joyful, loving, beautiful life despite every possible obstacle. Something we can all learn from.

As our very young country continues to grow and evolve, this is also a movie everyone involved in the shaping, maintaining and enforcing of our legal system should watch.

This is a gripping and fascinating story of how Ricky Johnson was wrongfully accused and sent to prison for 39 years (the longest in American history) and never broke his spirit.

What an incredible story... I have found myself thinking about this one for days after seeing it. Very intense, and even had a number of twists and turns.

The production and fx really were a nice addition to the already incredible story.

Cannot believe this man spent 39 YEARS in prison for a CRIME HE DIDN'T COMMIT.
