Directed by Ryan Coogler, Starring Michael B Jordan, Miles Caton, Hailee Steinfeld
Strap yourself in for one of the most talked about American films of the last year, one that is attracting a lot of awards season attention, with some predicting a record number of Oscar nominations across all categories when they are announced this week. Miles Caton stars as Sammy, an exceptionally gifted young blues singer and guitarist in the Jim Crow deep South (who may or may not have sold his proverbial soul to the devil at the crossroads…). Jordan stars as twin brothers Elijah and Elias who have returned home with a stack of cash earned in Al Capone’s gangland turf in Chicago. They fancy opening their own juke-joint with Sammy as the main attraction. But things don’t go entirely according to plan, with ex-lovers and Irish country singers wanting in on the venue; as night falls, warnings about the consequences of dancing with the devil play out as the forces of the supernatural close in, and we’re in for a night of frenzied grappling for survival between the living and the undead. With a commentary on good, evil, music and racial politics, Coogler’s film is a brash, brazen, riotously energetic genre mash-up. Quite a ride, unlike any other, and with a soundtrack that is a loveletter to the blues. See it ahead of the Oscars and judge for yourself. Watch the trailerhere.
