Ryan Coogler thanks Sinners audiences for showing up in Golden Globes speech
'Sinners' directors Ryan Coogler thanked audiences during his Golden Globes speech.
Sinners took home two awards during the Golden Globes on Sunday, including best original score and the award for cinematic and box office achievement. Ryan Coogler's lauded film made a whopping $368 million worldwide at the box office, breaking more than one record.
"I just want to thank the audience for showing up," said Coogler onstage during his acceptance speech. "This movie was made by hundreds of people. We don't always be working in the film business, wear tuxedos, and look glammed up — it's usually a grind. We'll be wearing like, performance fishing gear and being in the swamps."
Coogler then noted the importance of Sinners being released in cinemas.
"It was an honour on this movie to know it was getting a theatrical release. We would remind people every day, in the dog days of summer, in New Orleans, like, 'Hey, big movie, people gonna see this, big theatre.' We didn't know that they would show up, so we just want to say thank you that they did. It meant the world to us," he said.
"We created a very special community and family making this film, grinding every day while many of us were away from our own families at home," said producer Zinzi Coogler onstage. "Thank you for pouring into this story. You are all masters of your craft at an elite level and it was an honour to share this space with you."
