Sinners
I need to see this again ASAP. Really engaging and thrilling premise, interesting metaphor, and great performances all around. That oner around the barn highlighting different styles of music and the joy it brought? An all timer. My jaw had literally dropped and I didn’t realize it until the scene was over. Incredible directing. It’s also completely original which is another thing to celebrate. I think there are some things here that hold it back a little (like a predictable/somewhat safe climax that doesn’t quite live up to the buildup) but nevertheless this remains really good with definite replay value. Love the vampire metaphor of black/marginalized people’s joy and culture attracting white people to destroy/steal it, even if they think they “mean well” (they don’t). Hope to see this again soon and I’ll finalize a rating.
