Drama

Set against the backdrop of the late 1950s and early 1960s South, I'll Fly Away delves into the life of Lilly Harper, portrayed by Regina Taylor, a black housekeeper working for district attorney Forrest Bedford. The show explores Lilly's gradual involvement in the Civil Rights Movement, which ultimately entangles Forrest in the struggle for justice. Despite its critical acclaim, including two Emmy wins and numerous other awards, the series struggled with ratings and was canceled in 1993, prompting a two-hour wrap-up film. This concluding installment aired on PBS, addressing unresolved plotlines and echoing the tragic story of Emmett Till.
