unfortunate consequences of watching reactions to Sinners is you realize just how many people are completely fucking oblivious or just completely fucking stupid. the amount of people i've seen completely misunderstand the literal fucking text of Mary and Stack's relationship is baffling. guys, this is 1932. Loving v. Virginia doesn't even exist yet, much less societal acceptance of interracial couples, what the fuck are you guys on about?
also, partially unrelated, but, somehow, i haven't seen a single person mention the fact that the only way Mary and Stack could fully be together is by becoming vampires, and that there's security there, but also an inherent factor of having to hide from society in the daylight, and the amount of people i've seen missing that from their analysis is truly bizarre. like. guys. it's pretty fucking important to their relationship and Coogler's thoughts on interracial relationships.
