For the past 9 years, writer and director Jeff Nichols has been proving himself to be one of the more consistent, innovative, and compelling filmmaking voices of his generation, dating all the way back to his first feature, Shotgun Stories, to this year’s Midnight Special. Now, the filmmaker returns with his fifth feature film in Loving, which tells the true story of interracial couple Richard and Mildred Loving, who through their marriage and fight for justice in the 1960s American south helped to change the United States Constitution and continue to pave the way towards racial equality in America.
We meet Richard and Mildred at the beginning of their marriage, when Mildred had just become pregnant with their first child, and Richard drove her out of their Virginian hometown to Washington, D.C. to be married. Unfortunately, upon returning home to Virginia, a state with much stricter laws and views on interracial marriages, they’re forced to either face exile from their home and all of their loved ones, or be forced to separate. What follows is the true story of two people forced to live with more injustice than they ever should have, and their court case that eventually changed the nation’s constitutional outlook on interracial marriage forever.
