The film begins with the cast rehearsing various parts of the play
Incarcerated at Sing Sing for a crime he didn’t commit, Divine G finds purpose in a theater group alongside other incarcerated men in this story of resilience, humanity, and the transformative power of art. These are actual audition tapes used in the casting of the film. The group is criticized for not doing comedy, but their previous play was A Midsummer Night’s Dream, a comedy.
The cast was great
Seen on Late Night with Seth Meyers: Anna Faris / Colman Domingo / Jose Medeles (2024). Blades composed by Bryce Dessner. Best film I’ve seen in a long time.
Colman Domingo is incredible
The filmography is very unique and really sets the tone. The plot was well crafted and fast-paced. This film touched me deeply.
Definitely worth seeing on the big screen
The film is based on a true story about Sing Sing’s Reformed Through Art theater program. Many characters are played by former members of the program. The emotional range of the characters in this film is extremely engaging.
Just deeply sweet
I was moved to tears several times throughout this film. This film is emotional and heartwarming – it explores hope, pain and redemption.
