Lovely Jackson

Not often do you get to see the story of an exonerated individual told in such an intimate manner. Rickey Jackson playing himself in this movie allows for the story to be genuine and for the viewer to understand obstacles he faced in prison.

The raw emotion presented by Rickey in the film is something I have never really encountered in films concerning the same topic. This is an innovative form of storytelling that provides the grounds for people to engage on the topic of the wrongfully convicted.

This film is informative in the sense that it touches on several issues of the American criminal justice system through the story of just one innocent man!

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 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.

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.

We sat transfixed in the dark theater on the edge of our seats the entire time. This deeply personal story carries you into the deepest recesses of the justice system and shines a spotlight on one man's journey over 39 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit. There wasn't a dry eye in the theater.

The cinematography and storytelling are beautifully done. We talked for hours afterward about the film and still can't stop thinking about it.

This story of ricky jackson's life will renew your faith in the resilience and goodness of humanity and our ability to triumph over adversity.

You will not want to miss this incredibly film!!
