Summary

For this week's main podcast review, Josh Parham, Lauren LaMagna, Dan Bayer, and I are reviewing the critically acclaimed indie sensation of the year, Greg Kwedar's "Sing Sing" starring Colman Domingo, Clarence Maclin, Sean San José & Paul Raci. Since its world premiere at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival, the inspiring prison drama has captured audiences' hearts through its performances, writing, and elegant filmmaking from Kwedar. Now, in wide release from A24, is your chance to experience this beautiful piece of storytelling and listen to our thoughts as we discuss what we believe to be one of the best films of 2024 in their SPOILER-FILLED review.
