228. 'Sinners'
Manage episode 479852415 series 2577667
Ryan Coogler's original film 'Sinners' defied the so-called conventional wisdom of Hollywood and dropped only 6% week-to-week in its box office performance.
It was also the subject of a fascinating online discourse about how the film's box office performance was written about in industry media.
In this episode I recount the online controversy surrounding some of the reporting on the film and give you my own take on having seen the film. Enjoy!
