Sinners

"Imagine a film that breaks the Oscar record held by Titanic and La La Land, yet features an electric guitarist, a DJ, and West African griots all sharing the same frame . Impossible? Ryan Coogler's Sinners achieves the impossible. This vampire epic, with Michael B. Jordan playing twin brothers, is more than a horror film; it's a raw wound about how Black culture has been consumed and stripped of its roots on the very soil where the blues was born. What if the line 'White folks like the blues just fine, just not the people who make it' became a vampire metaphor? What if a child's guitar notes summoned centuries of silenced ancestors? As Coogler said, 'When people think about 1930s Mississippi, they think hard times. What if we imagined them having a party so good you wish you could go?' . Sinners is your invitation. But fair warning: you have to dance until dawn."
