Ex-Death Row Prisoner Rickey Jackson & Director Matt Waldek Discuss Their True Crime Doc “Lovely Jackson”

When it comes to true crime, there are thousands of documentaries, and if you’re like me, you’ve probably seen a lot of them. There’s one new documentary headed your way that is different, more profound, and more emotionally charged, Lovely Jackson. In the documentary, the life and wrongful incarceration of Rickey Jackson are explored. Rickey was convicted of murder while just a teen and sentenced to death before his sentence was commuted to life in prison three years later. He spent the next 39 years fighting for his freedom. You see, Rickey was innocent, and the only thing that tied him to the crime was a lie told by a 12-year-old boy, who eventually recanted his statement. Rickey was convicted without evidence and even had a witness tell the police he wasn’t the man. But still, Rickey spent the majority of his life in prison until the Ohio innocents Project came to his aid. Finally, he was set free. Lovely

Review: If You Watch One True Crime Doc This Year Make It ‘Lovely Jackson’

Can you imagine being sentenced to death, having it commuted, only to spend 39 years facing the brutality and real horrors of prison and knowing that you are completely innocent? That was the reality for Rickey Jackson, prisoner A144-061. In the new documentary Lovely Jackson, we are introduced to Rickey and the hardships he experienced for many decades. Lovely Jackson is not your average true crime film. We rarely see through the eyes of someone who has experienced so much suffering at the hands of a failed justice system. You may be wondering how an innocent man found himself in such a situation, the state’s entire case hinged on a statement made b12-year-old-old, and it was a complete lie. Rickey waited for thirty-nine years for him to tell the truth. You would think Rickey would be bitter, but no. Somehow he remains kind and found forgiveness for the man who almost put him in the electric chair. I wasn’t sure

MoviesReviews

Movie Review: “Watcher”

Director Chloe Okuno, who first came to the attention of this reviewer and many a horror fan with her terrific 2014 short film Slut, delivers one of this year’s finest, most gripping horror thrillers with her debut feature Watcher. Elegantly shot, eerie, and suspenseful, the film boasts a fantastic lead performance from Maika Monroe, building on the strong work she has already shown in The Guest, It Follows, and other films. Julia (Monroe) moves from the U.S. to Bucharest with her husband Francis (Karl Glusman) after he is transferred there as a work promotion. He speaks the language, while she is trying to learn it. He works long days, while she mostly remains in their plush apartment. She notices a man (Burn Gorman of Crimson Peak) in the next building who is seemingly watching her at all hours. With a serial killer called The Spider roaming the streets, Julia naturally becomes suspicious when she sees someone who she believes is
