Only a select number of movie theaters are able to show "Sinners" as director Ryan Coogler intended. Three are in California, with commemorative filmstrips.

"Sinners" could mark a turning point for horror at the Academy Awards. Ryan Coogler’s new film will change the Oscar conversation.

In a world where legacy is so often tied to blood, pain, and repetition, Sinners offers something radical: the idea that you can write your own ending. That music, which is honest, human, and handmade, might be the only way to break the cycle. In Sinners, that’s the real miracle: not eternal life, but a meaningful one.
