Directed by Alan Parker, this gripping crime drama delves into the investigation of the real-life murders of three civil rights workers in Mississippi, the same event Neshoba covers from a documentary perspective. Fans of Neshoba may appreciate Mississippi Burning for its dramatized portrayal of the search for justice amidst intense racial tensions.

This historical legal drama, directed by Rob Reiner, tells the story of the late 1990s trial of Byron De La Beckwith, who was convicted for the 1963 assassination of civil rights leader Medgar Evers. Ghosts of Mississippi complements Neshoba's exploration of delayed justice for civil rights-era crimes.

Directed by Spike Lee, this moving documentary examines the tragic 1963 bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama, which resulted in the deaths of four young girls. It shares with Neshoba a critical examination of civil rights history and its somber consequences.
