Perry Seibert ~ Talking Pictures - "Sinners"

Episode Summary

April 25, 2025 ~ Lucy Ann Lance talks with Perry Seibert with the Michigan Movie Critics Guild for this week's Talking Pictures. “Sinners,” the new film by Ryan Coogler, director of the “Black Panther” movies. “Sinners” follows twin brothers in the 1930s Mississippi Delta who open a juke joint, but it explores themes of music’s power, cultural co-opting, and assimilation through the use of vampires as a metaphor. Despite some reservations about its length, Seibert praises the film’s depth, originality, and Coogler’s ability to convey complex ideas through imagery and subtext, recommending that people see it for themselves.
