Theatrical Tasting: SINNERS (2025)

We saw Sinners in the theater this past weekend, and wanted to do a quick mini-episode covering why it's an important movie at this time in cinematic history. In part because of the Rights Reversion deal director Ryan Coogler struck with the studio, also because it's a true-blue tentpole crowd pleaser with more on its mind - a combination we'd lost for a while there.
