There are so many reasons that Sinners is a great film, but this is a big one. Like all great speculative storytelling, it doesn't point to a myth and say "That's history." It EMPLOYS myth to INVESTIGATE history.

Richard Thomas has been a great mentor in the spec fiction field. Now his superb magazine, Gamut, has put its entire online to read for free. Cutting edge writers and an amazing variety of stories and poetry. Enjoy!
