[A couple months back, my wife and I were blown away by one of the best films either of us has seen in a long while: Ryan Coogler’s stunning Sinners. This week I’ve AmericanStudied different contexts for this phenomenal work, leading up to this weekend post sharing great pieces from fellow SinnersStudiers!]
As you would
expect, there have been tons of thoughtful and important responses to Sinners,
from FilmStudiers and AmericanStudiers alike. Here, in no particular order, are
a handful of them—please share more in comments!
