Hollywood Minute: ‘Sinners’ cast to receive Gotham Awards tribute as family films and cult classics hit theaters

The acclaimed drama Sinners is getting fresh recognition this awards season.

(CNN)- The acclaimed drama Sinners is getting fresh recognition this awards season. The Gotham Awards announced that the film’s cast will receive an Ensemble Tribute during the ceremony in December.

Organizers praised star Michael B. Jordan for his “magnificent” dual roles and said the ensemble delivered “one of the great cinematic experiences of the year.” The film, which earned both critical and audience acclaim, has been a standout in early awards conversations.

For moviegoers looking for something lighter this month, the comedy Grow is opening a week-long theatrical run. The film follows a chaotic pumpkin-growing competition that turns into an all-out battle for seasonal bragging rights.

Described as a “Halloween movie with a Christmas vibe,” Grow promises a family-friendly option for audiences who want festive fun without the fright.

And fans of classic cinema will get to “bask in the glow” once again — the 1980s martial arts favorite The Last Dragon returns to theaters next week for its 40th anniversary. The re-release brings back the same mix of music, kung fu, and camp that made it a beloved cult hit.
