Time (2020)

Nominated for Best Documentary Feature  Finally!  A documentary that doesn't make me want to die!

Robert Richardson robbed a bank in northern Louisiana and was sentenced to 60 years in prison with no possibility of parole.  His wife, Sibil or alternatively Fox Rich, drove the car and was also arrested, plea bargained down to 12 years, and served her time.  Over the next two decades, Fox worked tirelessly to raise her six (6!) boys and campaign for her husband's release.  

Honestly, this woman's drive and determination is truly awe-inspiring.  I would have been exhausted trying to do a quarter of the work she does.  And she recorded years of video diaries?  While running a business?  And being a motivational speaker?  I need a nap just listing those.  I imagine that in person she's probably more polarizing --that kind of passion always is-- but the film does a great job of making her sympathetic and not strident.  

It's currently streaming on Amazon Prime.
