Warner Bros.’ “Sinners” has become a can’t-miss film, and the box office numbers show it. After earning a strong $48 million opening weekend, Ryan Coogler’s original horror film is holding its second weekend drop to a breathtaking 8% as industry estimates are projecting a $44 million total.

If any lesson, or rather a reminder, is to be taken from the success of “Sinners,” it’s to stop counting out Black stories. You’d be surprised by how many people show up and show out for them.
