The hosts of the Cinephile Hissy Fit podcast, sponsored and supported by the Ruminations Radio Network, have often encountered greatness as its happening. The new works of special filmmakers find ways to stand out and announce their presence as burgeoning or established masters. Those directors create the reputation to become necessary appointment viewing whenever a new film is released, hype be damned or not. Black Panther and Creed director Ryan Coogler has reached that level, and Sinners is the lastest cemented evidence of his mastery of genre film.

For their 197th episode, two non-musical film critics, two vampiric dads, and two enthralled school teachers,
Will Johnson and
Don Shanahan, turn their gaze and their microphones to the big April box office hit
Sinners, starring Michael B. Jordan in a dual role, Hailee Steinfeld, Wunmi Mosaku, Jack O’Connell, and Delroy Lindo. Our two fellas walked away very impressed with every aspect of this wild genre mashup. They see myth and relevance with every pluck of the movie’s dobro and see future awards consideration on its horizon. Come learn more and stay for the mutual love and respect that fun movies encapsulate. Enjoy our podcast!
