saw a theory that the SmokeStack twins were posing as one man in Chicago, which helped them get away with stealing from both sides. i'm poised to believe that because visually their clothing was very clearly of the two mobs. smoke was full irish— tweed, bowler hat. while stack had the full mafia look. yk italian leather shoes, fedora etc etc . like the details!!
"Well, then, in the Savage Garden," said Armand, "you shine beautifully, my friend. You walk as if it is your garden to do with as you please. And in my wanderings, I always return to you. I always return to see the colors of the garden in your shadow, or reflected in your eyes, perhaps, or to hear of your latest follies and mad obsessions. Besides, we are brothers, are we not?"
SINNERS (2025) dir. Ryan Coogler
Spoiler alert for Sinners!
A huge theme in Sinners is ancestral protection and connection. Making sacrifices so that fire remains stoked. The roots that Annie’s grandmother taught her that she uses to keep Smoke safe. When Delta Slim said the blues is something that we brought from home. A gift that connects the past, present and future. When we got that beautiful scene with the dancers and musicians from every generation! The way everyone fought tooth and nail to let Sammie make it at the very least. When Sammie hugged that broken guitar close to his chest!! His only connection to the people he lost, both known and unknown. His connection to freedom as he flees the plantation. Cinema.
ok
Tumblr is a fate driven website. You can't find posts through the search function, you see them when you're meant to.
and friendly reminder that not everyone can form words so if you use dialogue in ur x reader that is actually non inclusive. think about that.
going up to a character i enjoy and being like "i'd like to award you the highest honour i can bestow" and the honours in question are like. bad at sex. undiagnosable mental anguish. loser's temperament. actual body horror shit. nicotine addiction.
I love that Ryan Coogler cast a big, thick and glorious dark skinned black woman as the main love interest and I love that the sex scene was unapologetically sexy and passionate. I loved seeing this big strong and muscular black man bend this big, thick ebony goddess over and gave her some hot and heavy soulful kind of love. It wasn’t wrong or gratuitous.
