37th Producers Guild Awards
The one place where the sheer box office strength of Sinners could have given it the edge instead goes the prevailing direction towards One Battle After Another. SAG could still create some doubt but not enough to stem the tide and with today’s news of military strikes on Iran, it picks up even more salience.…
