Divine G, incarcerated at Sing Sing for a crime he didn’t commit, finds purpose performing in a theater group alongside other incarcerated men in this story of resilience, humanity, and the transformative power of art. As the film opens, the actors are trying out different roles in the play. These are actual audition tapes used to cast the film. The group has been criticized for not doing comedy, but their previous play was A Midsummer Night’s Dream, which is a comedy. Featured on Late Night with Seth Meyers: Anna Faris/Colman Domingo/Jose Medelez (2024). Blades composed by Bryce Dessner. Rating: 8.7 Overall, a powerful film that shows how prisoners are still human despite their flaws, as the film uses graduates of Sing Sing’s RTA program to deliver this strong message of redemption, led by a great performance by Colman Domingo.
