End Credits #388 - April 23, 2025 (Sinners)

This week on End Credits, in keeping with the theme immediately following the Easter weekend, we will talk about people coming back from the dead. Creatures of the night aren't the only ones making beautiful music in Sinners, which features a potent combination of leading man and filmmaker, and that's making us think of other great movie duets, so to speak.

This Wednesday, April 23, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Candice Lepage will discuss:

Teams. This week's movie features once of the most potent modern film teams of a great actor and a great director: Michael B. Jordan and Ryan Coogler. In film history, there have been all kinds of actor and director teams who did great things together not just once, not just twice, but three times or more. To begin this week, we will talk about some of the greatest who ever did it, and how they did it together!

REVIEW: Sinners (2025). Ryan Coogler's fifth movie is his first wholly original work, the story of two bootlegging brothers who come home to Mississippi to go into business for themselves only to find a bigger monster than the KKK. To play his hero, Coogler has relied on the man who's been featured in each of his movies so far, Michael B. Jordon, and he has to bring his considerable charm to this genre bending movie that's equal part horror, musical, thriller, crime drama and racial reckoning. Can a movie this bold possibly live up the hype?

End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.
