You don’t have to dig too deep to see it as a commentary on cultural vampires stealing black culture (music and dance in the case of Sinners) for their own gain of influence/power.

Planning to watch Come See Me in the Good Light after work tonight. It will likely be the final Oscar nominee I get to see before the ceremony Sunday night.

Deep or not, nothing leading to that was engaging or interesting.

Did you know that the main character and his twin brother were played by the same actor?

This movie knocked me flat. So much joy. So much empathy. This is the kind of film, I think, that can alter a life.

Watched Marty Supreme last night. Loved the movie.
Damn near hated the main character.

I was so excited to see it but all the stuff coming out about the Safdies put a bad taste in my mouth. I'm sure I'll see it someday but I ain't paying for it.

I liked Sentimental Value well enough but it still disappointed me because I was expecting to love it

It's in my top 10 of the year and yet still I basically agree. I expected to like it more than I did, so it does somehow feel disappointing.
