From dramatic courtroom scenes to devastating moments on death row, JustMercy is made all the more emotional thanks to delicate editing of performance and tone by Nat Sanders
Nat Sanders created compelling montages and made smart choices to build hope, sadness and other powerful feelings in the Warner Bros. drama.is made all the more emotional thanks to delicate editing of performance and tone by Nat Sanders.
In one key scene, there's a hearing to see if Walter deserves a new trial, and it's a devastating blow when the request is denied. "The evidence presented was so overwhelming that Walter was innocent, so in the first trial scene we did a montage that really hammered home that the case was so airtight," says Sanders.
Another devastating scene takes place in the prison, when inmate Herbert Richardson is sent to the electric chair. A row of prisoners in their cells bang their cups against the bars, which can be heard in the chamber. Here, Sanders cross-cuts between the electrocution, the witnesses and the jail cells. "It's very heavy and it's the emotional center of the film," Sanders says of the cross-cutting sequence, which had been written into the script.
